Either way they are doing it to advance their own agenda. bottom line that is what their lack of action is all about. Their own agenda. -- Leif Ericksen On Mon, 2007-10-29 at 12:03 -0400, Valdis.Kletnieks () vt edu wrote:

Congress is needed to declare war (the president can not do it) See the following: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Declaration_of_war_by_the_United_States After World War II, Congress voluntarily limited its use of the power to declare war to issuing authorizations of force.Right. And Congress wussed out and gave Bush basically a blank check and hasn't gone back to change its mind. They gave him that authorization.Two weeks ago, during a hearing in the House International Relations committee, ****I attempted to force the committee to follow the Constitution and vote to declare war with Iraq.**** COMMENT: If Ron Paul is the author of that Vote for me and I will end the war he is contradicting himself the the statement found in the link I have provided and just outlined. Does that mean a lie? Dishonesty?No, what he did, near as I can tell, was to tell Congress to actually get *serious*, and if they wanted a *war* to *declare* a war, rather than some mamby-pamby "authorization to use force". Congress proved not to have the collective cojones to Do The Right Thing.
