Do the democrats feel that Roosevelt was wrong when he declared war on Japan? Do they think he should have conducted a police action against the Japanese pilots? I don't think so. The only difference between the two acts, as far as I can see, is that the Islamic enemy is not organized to a polnt where they have a common uniform or insignia yet.
