If it's the Congress that farmed its authority out to President Whoever for an infinite "war" then shame on them too.

Congress did the same for Presidents Adams and Jefferson. So it had good precedent.

It's not such an indefinite decaration either- it does not give authority to use military force against ALL or ANY terrorists- just specifically those involved in the 9/11 attack.

They really had to give at least that authority, more would have been nice IMHO.
