The Islamist in Chief still hasn’t executed Nadil Hasan who was in contact with Al Qaeda before he attacked US citizens at Fort Hood.
Obama’s administration classifies it as “alleged workplace related violence” and the murderer is STILL RECEIVING HIS PUBLIC PAYCHECK!
Obama speaks with forked tongue.
Not good. Coming soon to the friendly skies of your flyover state.
How have we reached the point where a thug like Eric Holder has this kind of power?
For the list
Like the Tea Party?
As much as I hate islamic terrorists...........
The “AL QAEDA” buzzword is the sugar to make the medicine go down:
Have no doubt they’ll be turning Wal-Mart Willy and Costco Kathy into puffs of pink mist.
The first instance of using Global Hawk in CONUS was in Wyoming, and it was against ranchers who’d had some cattle wander onto their land.
I don’t get the outrage about this.
If terrorists are legitimate targets, then why should a terrorist get a Don’t Drone Me Bro Card simply because he has American citizenship?
Some of the German infiltrators at the Battle of the Bulge who dressed in American uniforms were US citizens. They were still shot out of hand as in violation of the laws of war. As they should have been.
AFAIK there is at present no attempt to apply this principle inside the US. But if terrorists launch an all-out attack such as Benghazi or Beslan, does anyone seriously contend we shouldn’t respond with all necessary military force, even if those launching the attacks are US citizens?
I don’t trust our present administration any more than anybody else, but I think the principles outlined here, as such, are valid
It seems only like a short time ago that liberal journalists were unset because enemy combatants caught on the battlefield with weapons were being indiscriminately imprisoned.
Where do we buy anti-aircraft weapons? The Chinese? French? (Wouldn't that be funny that they save our asses again.)

The trouble with laws is that we think, “a reasonable person wouldn’t abuse this.” We need to start looking at each law if it were in the worst hands possible. Judging them from that perspective would go a long way toward corralling government.
Wow... just... like, wow, man. This admin is just out of control. How is it that NBC is coming up with this and not us?
for later
It’s good to be king, not so good to be a peasant. I repeat, this is too much power for a POTUS, any POTUS.
“Lawfulness of a Lethal Operation Directed Against a U.S. Citizen who is a Senior Operational Leader of Al Qa’ida or An Associated Force.”

“against a U.S. citizen whose conduct poses an imminent threat of violent attack against the United States”
So someone’s “conduct of imminent threat” is enough???
Oops, it says a U.S. citizen. My Bad.

and another thing... was talking to a coworker today whose young son is recently out of college a few years ago and with his employment had worked on some of the navigation functions of drone aircraft. My coworker was noting that the military has found that no amount of flight school training assists a drone pilot sitting in a trailer somewhere controlling the aircraft. The best drone pilots come frome the ranks of gamers...
This sent the thought of Adam Lanza flying these things in my mind.
