Can the US Congress put the President on trial?
Congress can only conduct impeachment proceedings against the President. The House of Representatives votes whether to impeach (bring charges against), and the Senate conducts a trial to determine whether the President should be removed from office. This is purely a political process, and carries no penalty other than removal. Congress cannot bring criminal or civil charges against the President or put him (or her) on trial in any other sense of the word. A US President may be tried in the courts for personal wrongdoing under the same conditions as any other citizen.

How has The President of the United States been able to extend the War in Iraq way beyond the scope of the war powers act of 1973?
He hasn't. Congress approved his descision to go to war against Iran/Iraq. In congress, at least 66 percent of the vote has to be a positive for war to be declared-or any other descision to be made as well. In congress, they will send things called bills to the president, and the president decides if the bill is worth making into a law. If it isn't, it's sent back to congress, and congress can either improve the bill and send it back or override the president. If congress can ovveride the president on something as small as a law, that just proves how little power the president has in general. Democrats as well as Republicans on the congress approved the war at the time, even if the majority of them are against the war today.
