Did any of you read the Sept 14th, 2001 Congressional Resolution giving the President power to decide when, where and how to retaliate against the terrorists.... including the use of military force? That is what Bush is hanging his arguemnet on. And the lawers for Congress have yet to say word one about it. They just bluster at Bush but do not deny the validity of his arguement.

On the other hand, we can try and avoid making more enemies all we want by taking no action against anyone, but are we willing to pay for it in civilian lives? There is good evidence that the WTC happened because we took little or ineffective action after the last WTC bombing. I do not have an answer, but I do know that there is a point where we have a choice to be strong, or become the worlds punching bag. Unfortunately, we already have the enemies, lack of action will make them bold, not friendly. (IMHO)
