Judge Napolitano, "When the president can kill whoever he wants, he's not a president anymore, he's a King."

It’s worse than King. He’s the Messiah.

With the ending of DADT, he’s the King of queens...
Idiots like Ron Paul authorized him to go after those that attacked us on 9-11-01.
Take up arms against America, face the consequences. In fact, our passports used to include a warning about it.
Americans who went to fight with Hitler got the same treatment and more often than not, the individual soldier was judge, juror and executioner.
He killed a major leader of AQ, not "whoever he wants."
Those were much simpler times. These days, a soldier has to clear it with some JAG officer before he takes the kill shot.
“”When the president can kill whoever he wants, he’s not a president anymore, he’s a King.””
I don’t make a point of defending Obama much, but I do LOVE the way he’s sending drones into those hell-holes and whacking these nut-jobs...and controlling it all from an undisclosed location in Virgina.
As to the above statement, I’m actually much more worried about the following, especially how it pertains to the Obamacare.
So, to paraphrase...
“When the president can ISSUE WAIVERS whenever he wants, he’s not a president anymore, he’s a King.”
“Take up arms against America, face the consequences”
The US code provides for this.

I thought this was going to be about obamacare...
It should not matter one bit that he was born in the USA.
The one thing Obama has done correctly is to largely stay out of the way of the Joint Special Operations Command.
I hope they all get assassinated.
Wow lawyers, lawyers every and not a chance to think. Here are the facts:
1. War has been declared against the US. [At first the US ignored this as rantings of fanatics and paid a big price.] While Congress retains the right to declare war on others, this is not the leftist dream world where it takes two to fight.
2. In this war the US naturally seeks to take out the command and control of the enemy.
3. So an enemy combatant was killed. He happened to be a US citizen, technically only, but he certainly was an enemy combatant.
4. Enemy combatants are not killed because of some crime they have committed. You kill them because they are on the other side and are trying to kill you. You do not need grand jury indictment for each soldier you kill on the battlefield again because they have not committed a crime, they are doing their “duty” but are on the other side. [Similarly you hold captured enemy combatants UNTIL the hostilities are over, they are not sentenced as they are not being punished.]
Calling this an assassination is pretty stupid.
And we’ve been here before. President Bush already in 2002 showed American’s at war against the US they can die. General Pickett’s division once learned that lesson too.

moslems are moslems first. You could say some who have “citizenship” are Americans second but that is not accurate...
Let’s go back to the Revolutionary war...Traitors was killed. Washington firmly believed in it as a lesson and never backed down.
I’m not with the judge on that statement. This was not “anyone”. He was a traitor and sworn enemy of Th United States
