"Bush then declared that he had the right to kill anyone on earth anytime he felt like it and there wasnt a damn thing anyone could do about it.
Nor does it fit his narratives, history, tone and/or speeches at the time.
.. Ping!
bump!
Double bump!
Kill PA II. like RICO it will be used against American Citizens when it supposedly was not intended for that.

“...like RICO it will be used against American Citizens when it supposedly was not intended for that.” Of course, RICO was designed to be used against American Citizens. American citizens (and illegals) were Organized Crime. This is a stupid article and confirms my disdain for its author.
and what does ‘belligerent’ mean? Depends on which side your on, eh?
I went to the link to read it all - several links. Precisely when did this pass?
The worst of the worst.
Ah yes. With that, Leo brings the stupid full circle.
I’ll be back. Need to read more of the link. Like you said, the alleged quote from President Bush, doesn’t sound true at all.
Sounding a bit fringy here for sure, IMHO.
12/1/2011 I believe.
I went to Pres. Bush’s EO’s
That was the closest I found to the
date that could be pertinent.

Maybe it’s another one that’s too vaguely
titled I bypassed.
Or maybe they screwed up and are referring
to the Patriot Act

But it’s not jibing.
I read that Rand Paul got an ammendment in there that specifically says US Citzens are exempt. What happened to that?
He (Rand) was on with Greta talking about that. He did not have an issue with the law applying to “Americans” per say.
His issue was how it applied to American citizens on US soil.
He asked McCain if a citizen inside the US could be stuck in Gitmo, or worse, without due process, and indicated the answer was, yes.
“any person committing a belligerent act or directly supported such hostilities of such enemy forces.
Ok, who gets to determine enemy forces?
Who determines what a beligerent act?
Dept of Homeland considers Tea Party, Right wingers terrorist threats...right?
Repubs just handed Obama a gift.....if he doesn’t veto it, Americans can be arrested even on US soil...if he does Veto it, he still comes out looking like he “saved the US” again...
