Strange. I thought the Constitution specifically gave congress, not the president, the sole responsibility for declaring war.

It seems many people and even Obama for a while missed or ignored the Constitutional separation of who declares war and who is responsible for executing the war.

True enough. The problem lies, at least in part, in the tendency to call every adventure a war. It's like indiscriminately calling everything surgery, even an outpatient procedure, if it involves a sharp object or a break in the skin.

Additionally, it seems that any lengthy and energetic undertaking is also war, eg, "war on drugs."

On that subject, why has McCain said he would vote against it? Isn't he in the Senate?
