"Yes, the vote for war against Germany by Congress wasn't unanimous. One 90 year old congresswoman, a lifelong peace advocate, voted against the Declaration of War against Germany after Pearl Harbor."

So what's your point? Either it was unanimous or it wasn't. And she wasn't 90 when she voted against it. I think she was some kind of Quaker or something.

I was footnoting the information for the people I pinged to read this article.

When someone agrees with you and then explains why you are correct, you don't need to say, "What's your point?"

The point is accuracy.

Now someone posted previously that this congresswoman died 2 years after this vote at the age of 92. For accuracy, is that inaccurate?
