(975 posts)All of us troops loved the song, but it had no effect on our government or it's policies. So why are you picking on Canada, did they use chemical weapons against their citizens? We, the USA, have done many limited strikes against our foes and never declared war. I am not saying they were all successful or their goals were met, but someone has to be in charge and that responsibility rests with the CIC, President Obama. I trust him more than I trusted Ronald Raygun, or Richard Nixon, or George Bush senior or Jr. I may not trust all those that are advising him but he is the decider in chief ultimately. Aren't you glad that we are not talking about a President Robme making this decision, surrounded by the writers of the PNAC? Unless we put troops on the ground you can not say we are going to war. The War Powers Resolution gives the President certain latitude in these matters. Let's see how it all shakes out ok.
