Ah.  Abuse.  You've run out of "facts", have you?

I'm getting Constitutional preaching from a Canook!  Hilarious!  Hostilities 
in the original Gulf War ended in a UN-brokered cease-fire.  The war had not 
ended.  Hussein had not complied with the terms of the cease-fire, so we 
kicked his puny ass.  The US has jurisdiction anywhere there exists a 
perceived threat to the security of the US.  Heck, we'll even defend Canada, 
too!

Not true.  See above.  The original Gulf War never ended, and the US 
reserves the right to pre-emptively strike anywhere the US perceives a 
threat to US security.  That's what "Super Power" means, eh?

You are simply wrong.

I'm convinced that you wouldn't recognize a fact if it squirted out of your 
back bacon.
