It's an illegal use of war powers on criminals who have no country. So, what you are implying is that since there is no state to blame, we cannot pursue our enemies?

We know which countries support and harbor terrorists. IF the Prez and congress were serious about a war on terrorism that has a demonstrative end, then they would declare war on all of those countries.

I guess we need to turn the other cheek and let the terrorists nail us again .. and again ... The couple of constitution law toting fellas in here don't seem to get that lil piece of it and how they play into it. I could care less if a declaration is made formally or not, if it was insurance driven, so be it. Im shur Congre$$ would make everythng all better insurance wise in the end.
The undeniable fact is people were vaporized on 9-11 never to be seen again on this good earth. The hand wringers seem more concerned about details and an properly orchestrated sequence of events then wiping this terrorist vermin from this earth. This Orwellian talk is nothing but a bunch of hooey.
