Imagine if President George W. Bush or senior members of his administration asserted that they had the power to assassinate any person, including American citizens on American soil, because they merely suspected them of being involved in a terrorist plot.
Now, imagine that they went a step further and claimed that this broad new power was not subject to any oversight by Congress or the judiciary or international law.
A lot of left-wingers would be apoplectic. And they would be right.
Sadly, a Democratic president, Barack Obama, and senior national security officials in his administration appear to be wielding just that kind of power without any oversight, according to a memorandum outlining the extent of the U.S. drone program uncovered by NBC News Investigative Reporter Michael Isikoff.
Yet, the absence of national outrage is deafening.

“It’s okay when WE do it” - Mantra of the left
Juan is the Obama PIMP who pushed all these UAV attacks
by pushing endlessly for his beloved Tyrant
as he suggested American’s eat “dog food”.
Behind Juan’s shameless hypocrisy are
the two people behind the Drone attacks: Juan and Obama.
Hey Juan American police kill Americans every day as part of their job to protect us. I see no problem in soldiers doing likewise. Wanted dead or alive.
Yeah but he’s still a douche. I remember when NPR fired him and Sarah Palin came to his defense, he still found ways to trash her..and just a few days ago he was on with Michelle Malkin on Hannity and he told her to “Calm Down” he’s right what he says about Obama but he will continue to support him
Juan said this??? Amazing!
Welcome to the outskirts of Realville Juan!
P.S. Yesterday was my 13th Free Republic anniversary. Yaaaaay, me!
I can assure you that my outrage is not partisan.
No this is just his one day wake up. He will go back to sleep next week.
naw, Juan has been known to commit random acts of intelligence, like this...
Juan Williams=broken clock
He’s going to get kicked out of the house and down into the fields over this one ...
You’re right. He acts like they’re journalists. Their response shows that they are just partisan shills. What they report is dictated by party affiliation over all else.
Juan will bolt from Obamaville when Hell goes Methodist.
Juan is missing a memo. Get on it WH! Heaven forbid a lefty goes rogue and starts to think.
Yeah my first thought was, “Thanks for, uhhh, leading the way on this, Juan, you Obama apologist from the get-go”.

FOX pays Juan Williams big money to be filled with vinegar and lemon juice... with a dollop of vagisil..
Could be Juan is not as stupid as he looks..
but it is possible he is MORE stupid than he looks..
Like... Butch Van Sustern.. a democrat paid to act republican..
FOX is more and more appearing to be Kabuki Theatre..
So it is there is absolutely ZERO media TV outlets with any truth..
O’Really just wants pander to fill his bull squeeze sessions with democrats and republicans.. (with Miller)
Bill is poseur... like a RAP artist.. postering for effect..
You know.......... like Obama..
>Could Juan be in the process of ending his support of Obama?
Not likely. If you read the whole article, he’s back in the Obama fold by the end, merely asking for more clarification, and completely suppressing his outrage.
What good does an outrage against this man do, he does what he wants to do by Executive Order. When will the left wake up and realize who and what the guy is.
