If he ever did that, he would be impeached and convicted by both houses of Congress.

No he wouldn't, not anymore. The MSM would praise him to the hilt.

The one issue he seems to get any flak from, any criticism on, from the media or from Democrats is his use of drones and his maintenance of Guantanamo Bay detention.

People need to step back from their blind adulation of the Paul clan and think: "What possible advantage could the President reap from a drone strike in the US as opposed to a much cleaner and quieter conventional assassination? What political gain could possibly outweigh the political cost of such a clumsy and stupid action?"

Why do we use drones in the first place? Because they are a substitute for lethal boots on the ground in places where it is too expensive or politically prohibitive to establish such a ground presence.

The President has boots on the ground on every square inch of US soil if he needs them.
