Show me the legislation that showed Congress declared war. They didn't. You're wrong.

Congress has to declare war. What they do instead, is pass off that authority to the President of the US. Which is again, wrong.[/quote]

The USC states that congress shall declare war, not the means by which they will do so, so this legislation is all the authority the US need to take action. See the vote was on whether to authorize the use of force in Iraq, not whether nor not to pass the buck as you say. So they voted to use force, how does this not equate to a declaration of war?
