declaring wars on abstracts is just marketing
One problem...McCain lost.
Get f'ing over it. Terror is a feeling. You can't declare war on feelings, even if it's what you pin your hopes for election on. "Axis of Evil"? really? Do they consort? Are they really an "Axis"? I think not. They're just a group of countries that we don't like right now.
