As U.S. and international forces ramp up their attacks on Qaddafi forces, Rep. Jason Chaffetz, a two-term Republican from Utah, is blasting President Obama for ignoring lawmakers as he pursues military action in Libya. “The president does not seem to care about the United States Congress,” he says. “The president has failed to define success and explain to the American people and the Congress why we are going to war.”

“On the surface the president appears to be much more worried about what President Sarkozy has to say about things then the Congress,” he continues. “Following the French to war ought to raise a few eyebrows.”

Chaffetz tells National Review Online that he is alarmed at how the House and Senate have been sidelined. “One of the great challenges for the 112th Congress is, ‘Are we even going to be relevant?’ We better darn well start standing up for ourselves in the House.”
