(2002-09-13) — U.S. Senator Tom Daschle said he is “outraged” that the Burger King has begun waging a price war with McDonald’s without Congressional approval.
“Only Congress can declare war,” said Daschle. “I don’t care if he is the Burger King, he must submit to the U.S. Constitution.”
Daschle urged both restaurant chains to seek a peaceful solution to the conflict, perhaps through mediation by the United Nations.
