Founding Fathers of our New Country

"There's nobody in this world that could possibly attack us today... I mean, we could defend this country with a few good submarines. If anybody dared touch us we could wipe any country off of the face of the earth within hours. And here we are, so intimidated and so insecure and we're acting like such bullies that we have to attack third-world nations that have no military and have no weapon."

Of course, the politicians occupying the halls of Congress for the last 50 years have completely ignored their Constitutional obligation to declare war before sending American troops into harm's way. George Washington knew the danger of committing American troops without proper authorization:

"The constitution vests the power of declaring war in Congress; therefore no offensive expedition of importance can be undertaken until after they shall have deliberated upon the subject and authorized such a measure."

The last time that the U.S. Congress carried out its Constitutional obligation and declared war was World War II. Below are 50 combat operations since World War II where Americans have been sent into battle with no declaration of war. This is a compete flaunting of the U.S. Constitution.
