Ron Paul, the Texas congressman who is seeking the GOP presidential nomination, on Friday criticized the Obama administrations action in killing Anwar Awlaki, the American-born cleric who advocated jihad against the United States.
Paul was the strongest critic on the Republican side in condemning the attack, which was praised by other candidates including Texas Gov. Rick Perry. Former New Mexico Gov. Gary Johnson, a libertarian like Paul, also questioned the tactic of killing a U.S. citizen without due process.

Ron Paul must be a terrorist, correct? I didn't say that.
If you can't appreciate the pure beauty of the violin after hearing this, something's wrong with your ears.Or you can get raw with these strings. Either way, the violin is sweet yet lethal.
Do it!

As the politician said: "Nobody liked this individual"
But seriously, try to imagine that Obama ordered your execution without so much as a "by your leave"? Then, what? You are supposed to just acquiesce? That is just BS! We have HAD laws in this country once upon a time.

The only one more out of sync with the American public than Obama is Ron Paul.

While you’re bashing RP, you might want to change your tagline. Or are you just crazy?

"..ordered to be shot.."And he didn't "order them to be shot", either.

Due process for foreign terrorists, and drone attacks against U.S. citizens. Thats been the policy of the Obamunists.Worth repeating, thanks.
Personally, I don't claim the terrorist as a "citizen of the U.S."

"Its okay for Obama to assassinate terrorists, even U.S. citizens, as long as he doesnt waterboard them."Deserves to be repeated.
This administration can be counted on to do exactly the wrong thing every time.
The posters here who think Obama can do no wrong are FOS!!!!!

"So according to Pauls logic.."You can't follow RP's logic, so why pretend you can?
Your pathetic hypothesis is flawed beyond hope.

"That is just BS! We have HAD laws in this country once upon a time." Yeah we had laws right before 3,000 Americans were slaughtered on American soil and fools such as yourself expect pity for a Muslim coward who'd do everything in his power to kill your kids. Yet, you bemoan this coward's demise? Do us all a favor and leave, just leave now and take Paul with you. As an American I'll always take pride in targeting your kind.
To: rdb3
Can you blame ronpaul for bitchin? Drone attack, heck of a way to lose valuable supporters. He can’t afford to lose too many supporters this way.

He was President. We had a civil war. There were no rights read to the Americans that were killed on the battlefield. that was just one example of times when “due process” is not followed.
It was an example of when circumstances do not make the President ( whoever he is) not using “due process” before it is lawful to shoot an American citizen violating that “citizen’s due process rights.”.

Anchor Babies are citizens. All the Anarchists believe that.
