Let's not forget what happened this morning, many years ago.

Douglas King, ex-BT1(SW) USN



Right on. And, we didn't invade Mexico as a result.

WWII was the last war the US "won". It was the last war we were ever
attacked first and the last war that the Congress declared. I still question
whether the US won because of all the territory that fell into the hands of
tyranny. The world was less free after the war than before. I think the US
should go to war only if Congress declares it. The only war the US should
have ever been involved in was the Revolutionary War. All the other wars
were unecessary, no matter how many times Canada tried to invade.
