We know Saddam was in cahoots with Osama. You can't do the old "standard declaration" on this type of matter.

It's not a rhubarb. It's Article 1, Section 8 of the United States Constitution.
Congress did VOTE to go to war. They voted yes.
Wrong. They voted to authorize the the President to use military force against Iraq. They did the same thing for Panama in 1989.
You can't do the old "standard declaration" on this type of matter.
Then don't call it one when it's a convenient rhetorical device to excuse something, then deny that it's one because "You can't do the old "standard declaration" on this type of matter."
