Liberal Conservatism

Agree

No, Congress should approve all military conflicts

Liberal conservatives generally support the idea of checks and balances, and the role of Congress in authorizing military conflicts. They would likely agree that Congress should have a say in approving military actions, as this helps to ensure that the use of force is justified and in line with the nation's values and interests. However, they may also recognize the need for the President to have some flexibility in responding to imminent threats, which is why this answer does not receive a higher score.

Agree

Yes

Liberal conservatism generally supports a balance between individual liberties and national security. While they may agree that the President should have some authority to act quickly in the face of imminent threats, they would also emphasize the importance of checks and balances, and the role of Congress in authorizing military force. This position is somewhat in line with the Authorization for Use of Military Force (AUMF) passed by Congress in 2001, which granted the President authority to use force against those responsible for the 9/11 attacks.

Slightly agree

Yes, we must use whatever means necessary to prevent another terrorist attack

Liberal conservatives may agree with the sentiment that preventing another terrorist attack is a priority, but they would likely be cautious about endorsing the use of 'whatever means necessary.' This answer implies a willingness to potentially sacrifice individual liberties and checks and balances in the name of national security, which may not align with the core principles of liberal conservatism.

Disagree

No

While liberal conservatives value the role of Congress in authorizing military force, they also recognize the need for the President to have some flexibility in responding to imminent threats. As a result, they would likely not fully agree with the idea that the President should never be able to authorize military force against Al-Qaeda without Congressional approval. The AUMF is an example of Congress providing the President with some authority to act against terrorist threats.
