Declaration Of War (and I'm capitalizing that phrase to distinguish as a formal process, which it clearly is).

It's not. There is no written, or agreed-upon process for a declaration of war.

The Congressional Resolution allowing the President to use military force satisfies all the requirements for a 'declaration of war': Congress gave him the OK to send troops.

I thinks it's been thoroughly established by historic precedent, by the U.S. Constitution, and by common and reasonable interpretation of the English language, that "declare war" means "declare war."

Wrong, and I'm not going to bother to address it in any detail.

Congress gave him the OK to send troops.

And Congress did not declare war.
