And of course the ACLU would disallow the one with Joe Louis because he is saying "we are on God's side." Breaching that precious wall between church and state, you know.

You do not understand the war power granted to Congress in Article I, section 8, if you can say that.

If our war power were properly and legally applied, sedition would be punished, not with online quips but with detention in a camp in Utah.

Do you seriously think Roosevelt and Marshall would have left pro-Nazi advocates at liberty to spread their poison? Or that newspapers which repeatedly printed censored true information, or lies, about the war would have stayed in business?

War is war. The Congress has virtually unlimited power to wage it.

Why not do it?
