"Dellums v. Bush, 752 F. Supp. 1141 (1990), was a D.C. Federal District Court decision by United States District Judge Harold H. Greene, denying the plaintiffs, members of Congress, a preliminary injunction against President George H.W. Bush preventing his orders directing the United States military to attack Iraq without first declaring war with Congress' authorization."

Congress declares war. The President does not Declare war with Congress' authorization. The President commands the military in war, once Congress issues its declaration. The members of the legislative branch asked the court to prevent operation of the President's orders because, they alleged, Congress had not previously declared war and given the President direction in how to command the military in the war. --67.247.27.23 (talk) 22:35, 3 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
