As for the profits....I think it is odd that I am paying double for a gallon of gas since our president took office and our president is a Texas oil man....coincidence?...
Yes, Congress is the only one that can declare war but through executive privilege a President can start war without the approval of Congress. Congress voting to support the war was more of an act of formality then any real legal doing. We were going to Iraq with or without the support of Congress, just like we will be going to war with Iran if Bush has his way.

The new motto in America is: Ask not what you can do for your Country, Vote for what you can get out of your Country -- someone else will pay!
Frickin A I agree!
