People who demonstrate against a war effort once American troops are committed in combat are de facto providing aid and comfort to the enemy and are therefore traitors. They should be hanged.

And let me elaborate what lies at the end of the road you wish for us to take - President Hillary, declaring a phony war and using that pretext to squash all dissent, including the shutting down of Free Republic and the jailing of Jim Robinson and BobJ. Of course, you would never comprehend your own culpability in the matter.

Hilary could never declare a war without some motion of support from Congress. Only Congress can declare a war, and this Congress in effect, if not in precise words, did so when it gave Bush authority to use force in Iraq.

And yes, I am concerned about military adventures without formal declarations of war. I think Bush should have gotten one.
