I think you guys are getting hung up on semantic technicalities.

Actually, it's the other way around. I think ou are playing semantics
around the idea of when the US was at war. They were at war the first
time they took a shot, which is particularly obvious in a discussion
about US willingness for involvement in WWII as compared to other
countries.


Well, you can look at it that way, but I look forward to hearing you
explain how the term 'legally' had nothing to do with laws.


--errrr, and that comment should be aimed at Rick, btw.
