Mrs. Palin it is not suggested to rest on the sidelines for too long.
There is a serious struggle brewing.
You have been in and out of the fight, but things keep getting worse.
I thank you for your observations, and support you 100%, but please do not back down.
You are a rare individual who will need to start speaking up about these sorts of things.
Soon.
We live in interesting and dangerous times.
Please read this: at least the bold
"As members of this administration have previously indicated, the US government has not carried out drone strikes in the United States and has no intention of doing so. As a policy matter moreover, we reject the use of military force where well-established law enforcement authorities in this country provide the best means for incapacitating a terrorist threat."
However, Holder went on to note that under certain circumstances, the president reserves the right to target U.S. citizens for due process-free killings:
"It is possible, I suppose, to imagine an extraordinary circumstance in which it would be necessary and appropriate under the Constitution and applicable laws of the United States for the President to authorize the military to use lethal force within the territory of the United States. For example, the president could conceivably have no choice but to authorize the military to use such force if necessary to protect the homeland in the circumstances like a catastrophic attack like the ones suffered on December 7, 1941, and September 11, 2001."
Before the era of predator drones, such a statement might be considered unremarkable in that most Americans would accept some "extraordinary" action in a classic "ticking time-bomb" scenario. However, Obama's clear willingness to employ drone strikes to kill individuals who aren't necessarily involved in plotting attacks at the time they become targets should give all Americans pause.
