ok, I guess you can disregard the question I just sent you about the Patriot Act :)
A couple of questions. Does the Constitution say that Congress will pass a budget so that Congress is not called unpatrotic and against our boys, or does the Constitution say that Congress will declare war? Second question, did Congress declare war on Grenada? Iraq I? Vietnam? (or was that the Gulf of Tonkin that McNamara admitted lying to Congress about?) Either way, did Congress declare war on North Korea? What about all those actions in Central America over the fruit interests? Did Congress declare war there?
