One of President Obama’s most prominent critics on the black left said Sunday that a strike on Syria in the face of Congressional disapproval would be “dictatorial” — and grounds for impeachment.

“It doesn’t make sense to commit more war crimes,” Cornel West said Sunday on the syndicated radio show Smiley and West, to an approving response from host Tavis Smiley, who has also been consistently critical of Obama. […]

Later in the discussion of Syria, Smiley said: “If the President doesn’t get the vote that he wants… then I hope he has more sense then to go ahead anyway. But you used the phrase ‘dictatorial’ — and that’s exactly what it would be.”

“You would think in some ways grounds for impeachment,” replied West.
