No Doug, my problem is that the Constitution clearly states that only Congress can declare war, not the President and not the Judiciary, and I feel that our Congress has abdicated their Constitutional requirement to exercise that duty. Any resolution that says, "yeah, do whatever you want" is a pathetic passing of the buck, and unconstitutionally transfers powers to another branch of the government. It's Congress' job, dammit, to be discussing this!

When folks try to justify war, they always point to WWII as an example of a just war. I agree -- there was a clear example of a tyrant who could not be removed or swayed except by war.

Is it just coincidence that that was the last time Congress reached a specific accord on war, instead of weaseling out of the job?
