Some of our clowns are still active. This clip is from a recent Time magazine piece.
Former defense secretary Robert Gates says Congress “probably”
should have declared war on Iraq before invading in 2003, and added that it should do the same before any attack on Iran.
Gates is right about one thing: If we're going to do war at all right, let the President go before Congress and get a declaration of war. Otherwise, we get caught up in all of these "police actions" that get men killed and sully the name of the US for little reason--- and not much support either.
Maybe if Congress told the President that we're tired of being the world's Mommy, and refused to sanction one of these things--- well, I suppose we can dream of the day.
