“O” preaches many things, but seems to not carry through on them, doing the opposite. I suppose it’s convenient for him, then he can blame others for his inept handling.

For fucks sake Norman.
1. Congress <read the Republicans) have blocked funds for releasing or transferring hundreds of prisoners captured as part of the war on terror.
2. Drones — efficient, but need close oversight. Note to collaterals, if you sit around at the barbers, you're likely to get your hair cut.

These drone strikes constitute murder — murder committed for the purpose of preventing blowback. For me, the question is do we condone or condemn murder committed by the White House?

What’s the problem with drones? Must there be a pilot present and mildly at risk to justify attacking terrorists? Or should we wait while they try out in Somalia, say, until they are ready to axe a person in London…or New York.
