Congressman Peter King said on CNN Monday that even if Congress votes no on Syria, President Obama should still take military action.

Burnett asked King what Obama should do if Congress votes no. King said the president has the authority to act even if Congress votes no, though he did say any military campaign has to be more than just a day or two of missile strikes. He acknowledged the potential risk of arms ending up in the hands of al-Qaeda-affiliated rebels, but expressed his confidence at the United States’ ability to exert control over the situation.
