No freaking way Jimmy Carter would have the same huevos.

What do eggs have to do with it?

[subterfuge]

Yeah, it's stupid to highlight the raging hypocrisy of the Obama Totalitarian Regime. (eyes rolling)

“I have to give Obama some grudging respect”

Not me. No respect from this quarter. Droned bodies do not talk, and I do believe that’s the way this poseur prez wants it.

He won’t take any more prisoners at Guantanamo or send them to secret CIA dumps like Benghazi.

I want the info, but glorious leader is against water boarding and all that messy interrogation stuff. ‘More better’ to wipe them off the earth.

I don’t see any ‘huevos.’
Bush and Cheney interrogated to get the information needed despite withering criticism. This guy just shuffles his deck of drone cards.
And he knows his libtards won’t say anything.

‘I Never Believe It’s Better to Kill a Terrorist Than to Detain Him’

Thanks neverdem. In Politico, a reprinted Rich Lowry writes:

Will the author of the Obama administration white paper on killing U.S. citizens please report for his war crimes trial right away? If he served in the George W. Bush administration, someone would already be agitating for his extraordinary rendition to The Hague. The white paper outlines why the Obama administration believes that it can kill U.S. citizens without due process if they are senior members of Al Qaeda or an affiliate... The left is still furious that the Bush administration waterboarded three captured terrorists in the immediate aftermath of Sept. 11, 2001. Yet, with a few exceptions, it has blithely accepted the Obama administration’s extrajudicial assassination policy that has killed about 1,000 times as many people.

And, BTW Rich, waterboarding never killed anyone -- apart from a few named by the terrorists getting swirlied.
