I see you just can't bring yourself to concede.

Horsepuckey. If I say I am listening, it's cause I am.

There are very good reasons for NOT formally declaring war. Those Detainees would be immediate POWs that have full Geneva convention protections along with the requirement that they be released at the end of hostilities. Do you want them released? I want them to rot on GITMO.

Bollocks. In a War you can have War-crimes trials for the Order-Givers.

SOME of the Gitmo flacks I will admit that I do not particularly care about, any more than the Germans who fought Patton on the way into Bavaria. They were in the wrong place at the wrong time. I mainly want to see hangings for the Islamo-Nazis who actually gave the orders.

Congressional act in support of President Jefferson's undeclared war: An Act for the Protection of the Commerce and Seamen of the United States, Against the Tripolitan Cruisers. February 6, 1802.

The term "affirmation of war" doesn't appear in the act. Again, watch him pretend it did.

Correction: the sneakster's bizarro defense of America's sworn enemies is despicable.

Again,you are a LIAR! WHERE have I "defended America's sworn enemies"?

There are very good reasons for NOT formally declaring war.

First you say that the US was in a state of war during the War on Tripolis even without an explicit declaration and now you are claiming that there actually is a distinction between the congressional declaration made by Congress so many years ago and this year. In other words, you've attempted to argue that the congressional declaration of this year is constitutional and puts us formally at war, but here you claim it really doesn't. LOL. Your illogic knows no bounds.

[doesnotmatter]

Obviously not you.

The only thing I shoot is pig, deer, turkey and trespassers. I never drink and post, and I most cvertainly do not take drugs (other than nicotene and caffiene that is).

[sneakypete]

I thought he was hiding down in the dungeon while the fighting was going on. parsy.

No. If he had of been,he wouldn't have gotten shot in the leg. They used water to literally "flush" them out of the dungeons,and he was wounded when he came out.

[doesnotmatter]

And your point is?

[Texasforever]

No dumbass. But then why should I be surprised.

[Roscoe]

Have you ever read Heinlein's Revolt in 2100?

Remember the Brother Nehemiah Scudder character?

Give me a freaking break.

[sneakypete]

If they are keeping the guys lights on 24/7, that sounds kinda of stupid.

They do this for the convenience of the jailers,not to "punish" the prisoner. It's for suicide watch. They do the same thing in drunk tanks.

[Demidog]

LOL. You've been hoisted by your own petard. Again.

[Texasforever]

tick,tick,tick,tick

[Demidog]

Give me a freaking break.

You don't deserve one. Sleep it off.

[Texasforever]

Really? Do you understand the difference between sel-defense and offensive war. Gezze Louise how do you even mange to dress your sorry self.

[Cultural Jihad]

And your point is?

Carry no light burden.
