I have a doctorate in computational statistics and I knew plenty of idiots in grad school. Plus he got his MA back in the day when they still used punch cards and OOP was just a pipe dream. A five year old doing a Ruby on Rails tutorial has a deeper understanding of compsci than Mr. Pizza Guy.

You have to remember liberals don't consider undeclared illegal military action as "war" when a Democrat is in power. But when it's a republican, it's an "illegal, undeclared war."

So, why no such excuse, as the one being used for defense, by right wingers for Clinton?

It's also not a war if casualties are low or non-existent, like Kosovo or Libya.
