P.S. The term "prisoner of war" has no meaning unless the person in question is from a foreign nation that has had a formal declaration of war against it, approved by Congress.

I'll even go so far as to suggest that a government that declares an idiotic "War on Terror" against nobody in particular, thereby making every human being on the planet a potential "prisoner of war," has no legitimacy whatsoever.

Congress did approve the war.

Perhaps they didn't use the constitutionally mandated turn of phrase to do so, oh wait, the Constitution doesn't mandate any particular wording to authorize military force.

*BLUSH* *nevermind*
