Well well! It seems that we have some disagreement after all but I have to go now and will be away from the puter for an hour or two. I WILL get back to you however!

Thanks friend!

I'm probably going to be out of pocket by the time you get back, but since I think I can anticipate your argument, I will leave you with this thought.

The Constitution specifically authorizes Congress to provide for and maintain a Navy. It failed to mention anything about an Air Force.

The school of thought that would argue that our Founders in 1787 would have specifically provided for an Air Force if they had intended us to have one, has the tougher argument to make, I think.
