WE are not at war. President Bush is at war.

Congress gave President Bush the authority to take what ever action he saw fit to deal with these terrorist. That is all the consitutional authority the President requires.

You are reduced to playing word games.

A state of war can exist, even without the Congress formally declaring it.

*************************

The words I am "playing" with are the written words of our Constitution.

Congress declares war, not the President.

The Executive is charged with the enforcement of law. Law to be valid must be based upon the Constitution. Law enforcement not based based upon the Constitution is tryanny.

It's not a game.
