Go back to that thread and read my last response."

No you go back and read the thread. Your last response to someone else was the complete opposit of what you had been arguing in your replys to me.

"As to the other portions of your reply you are using semantics to make a point I don't play semantic games."

I did not use sematics with you. It is the constitution I refer to.

"The Congress gave Bush full War powers as CIC under the joint resolution the constitutional requirements have been met."

No they have not. Whatever semantics you want to use does not change that fact. Congress did not declare war.

"You don't like it but that is the fact."

The fact is Congress and the President are not following the constitution.

No you use the word constitution as some sort of justification for your total lack of understanding of the document. The Congress is the ONLY branch of government empowered to declare war, however the constitution is silent on how they must do it. No one in either the executive or, other than a few nut-cases, in congress and their equally ignorant fellow travelers in the population are claiming this is any thing other than a WAR.
