Really? So when do we declare war on these Islamic Fascists and their state sponsors - and then fight like we want to win???

Despite our ongoing actions in Afghanistan and Iraq, we've not seen a SINGLE declaration of war. Are we at war against Islamic Fascists including Al Qaeda or not? The President says one thing but the lack of a formal declaration says another.

The President says one thing, but the prosecution of our soldiers everytime they pull the trigger says another.

Well, maybe it's a "virtual war".......like our "virtual border" security, ya know?

Unfortunately, we seem to be at war with NGOs.
We really ought to smash their sponsors. Unfortunately while the sponsors include enemies like Iran,, they also include "friends" like Pakistan, Egypt, and Saudi Arabia.

I would be MUCH easier if we could actually just devastate a few countries and get it over with.

I believe that Bush has to get Congress' permission to declare war.
