I want to go on record and say that Repubs saying they are against O's drone strikes because they target U.S. citizens is stupid. If a U.S. citizen takes up arms against his country, screw them. They forfeit their rights as citizens. They are by definition traitors. To me, the Repubs who hold this position are playing politics, pure and simple.
The correct course is to say (1) you're vaporizing everyone, including those that could AND SHOULD be captured, because you (O) and the rest of the Dems don't want to interrogate the enemy; and (2) point out the hypocrisy of pitching a fit from '01-'08 re interrogation, and hammer home the point that vaporizing them is preferable to Dems than to capture them and interrogate them.
But please, please stop with the complete and utter BS that US citizens who have taken up arms against this country cannot be targeted and killed.
You are a sheep.
Explain.
The government (both Dems and Republicans) continue to push for a police state, and people are eating it up with crap like this. Why do you think they push to revoke "automatic weapons" rights while they go out and purchase vast quantities of them (labeling them self defense weapons), hundreds of thousands of rounds of hollow point bullets, etc...? They are systematically disarming the populace, and the sheep are bahing all the way to the pen.
There are no party lines, they are the same scum whether they have an *** or an elephant behind their name. Stop falling for the theater they put on the main stream media, its all bull ****.
Are you familiar with the story of how the (illegal) federal income tax passed? The Republicans proposed it, under the assumption that it was so asinine that it would no doubt get voted down. It's now been 100 years and the feds have been fleecing the working class for 30% of their income to fund a perpetual war (how many "peace" time years can you count since 1913?) and get the inflation train going through the Federal Reserve. The gun "issue" is playing out the same way. The Dems pushing for it, riling up the people. The Repubs giving in and making a proposal because it will get voted down....
