No they don't want to run the Army. They want Congress to formally declare war, an obligation and duty specified in the Constitution.

So Congress can pass a declaration of war this weekend and the matter's moot.

I thought that the war powers act covered this area.

You are really dense. There is a "declaration of war" for all intents and purposes.

I don't know what words YOU think ought to be uttered, but the Constitution doesn't specify. Therefore, Congress authorizing the President to proceed is a "declaration of war" that passes Constitutional muster.

Except maybe for pissant would-be "jurists" like yourself.
