it was not a formal declaration of war. sorry if words mean things.

It was just as a general reference.
It did say this.
"Many times, the United States has engaged in extended military engagements that, while not formally declared wars, were explicitly authorized by Congress, short of a formal declaration of war."

so how exactly does the war in iraq necessitate the US government monitoring phone conversations without warrants, even though there are specific laws against it and even though there's a secret court that'll gladly dish out warrants to anyone asking?
- mrdobolina0
they had been turned down by FISA because the wiretaps were unacceptable to the court. so they just went ahead and did it anyway.
Sorry if I don't think that is cool, but whatever.

Greedo:
You know the answer to your question. We all do.
The law is a matter of ideological soundness.
Stare decisis my foot, his jackboot.

it's the war on terror, not iraq. and yes, this is just using semantics to justify illegal actions by the us government.

so like can we get the impeachment going already? i mean they tried to get clinton over some shady real estate deals and eventually settled for lying about a blowjob, this guy is running roughshod over the constitution like it was toilet paper.
and his greatest moment was catching a fish for fucks sake.

stick to the issue at hand, what about the actual substance of the conversation?

how about freedom of the press?
