    He/we never declared war.

    He was simply notifying Congress after the fact using the same legal basis Panetta testified to.

    Perhaps the Dems should have joined the Republicans at the time and had that clarified but it involved Obama and Syria there was nothing but crickets.

    Thankfully, your opinion on this subject is very, very much in the minority.

    Notice how the Left's late hero Qassem Soleimani was actually a war criminal but all progs can focus on and cry about is Trump threatening to commit a war crime?

    Boo ****ing hoo.

    The tears of "progressive" traitors are almost as delicious as Ali Khamenei's tears...

    It's almost like Americans want their leader to be held to a higher standard than a terrorist.

    Shocking, I know.

    It's almost like "progressives" aren't a bunch of traitors.

    Not shocking at all...

    Yea...that "burn" made no sense. But you should never imply that I am a traitor or that I do not love my country. I make this request of you as nicely as possible.

    What does iran have that would justify the loss of gold and our children's blood? We should have been out of the region, completely, a decade ago.

    Sweet! So look at it this way; if Trump were to do it -- rather than just talk about it -- the political Left would actually have something legitimate to impeach him over. The political Left can always HOPE for such CHANGE.

    Ruh Roh... I'm sure there will be 6 more unnecessary Iran threads started today, so I just include this news in here

    SNIP
    Iran's Parliament Tuesday approved a bill designating the entire U.S. military and Pentagon terrorist organizations after the killing of Gen. Qasem Soleimani in Iraq.

    Lawmakers also backed a motion allocating $220 million to the Islamic Republic's Revolutionary Guards Corp's (IRGC) Quds Force to take revenge for Soleimani's death in a drone strike ordered by President Donald Trump.
    ENDSNIP

    https://www.yahoo.com/news/iran-oks-bill-calling-u-092922901.html

    I wonder if that is separate from the $80 million for Trump's head or if it's a package deal?

    Here's a little friendly advice to you and the rest of your comrades: Stop rushing to the defense of the "Death to America!" crowd. That **** is for traitors.

    The only 2 people I've voted for twice were B. Clinton and B. Obama, so I'm off the hook...

    Whew!

    Criticizing Trump for threatening to commit a war crime is not defending a death to America crowd.

    100% true, but it still makes me a bit queasy that defending Iran the past week has become quantum light years easier than defending the Trump administration (on anything)... It's freaking Iran...

    But, as the guy from Amadeus said, there it is...

    You criticize him for anything he does, even eating ice cream...
    He could cure cancer and you'd still find something negative about that.

    Keep focusing on that, Lefties. Your priorities speak for themselves.

    Being formerly from IL, I'm proud to say I voted against Barry three times, once when he ran for Senate.
