Wait, we can assassinate Americans because someone in the Administration says they are a terrorist, but we are supposed to arrest and give real terrorists all the the right of a U.S. citizen?

It feels like a parallel universe sometimes, doesn't it? The same crew that says water boarding is inhumane doesn't have a problem executing American citizens without due process. I understand there may be times it's appropriate to kill a terrorist who holds US citizenship. But it seems pretty hypocritical that the same folks claiming this kind of power are the same folks who complained that the prior administration's interrogation techniques and prison environments were abuses of power.

Oh well, I'm sure it's Bush's fault somehow. Man, this going to be a looooong four years!

Yep. Pres Bush set alot of 'precedents'. Obama and every future President will enjoy and utilized the expansion of the State for whatever purpose 'they' choose. The WOT will never 'end'.
