The presidential powers of Commander-in-Chief are not without limit. The President can not declare war, must get approval for money spent on war or the military and Congress can stop a war at any-time and also impeach the President if he/she goes beyond their allowed powers. Congress can also stop a war at any time and even if the President invokes the war measures acts they can override him with a two-thirds majority of both houses.
