Beyond that, Obama has used drones to kill Muslim children and innocent adults by the hundreds. He has refused to disclose his legal arguments for why he can do this or to justify the attacks in any way. He has even had rescuers and funeral mourners deliberately targeted. As Hayden said: ”Right now, there isn’t a government on the planet that agrees with our legal rationale for these operations, except for Afghanistan and maybe Israel.” But that is all perfectly fine with most American liberals now that their Party’s Leader is doing it:
Fully 77 percent of liberal Democrats endorse the use of drones, meaning that Obama is unlikely to suffer any political consequences as a result of his policy in this election year. Support for drone strikes against suspected terrorists stays high, dropping only somewhat when respondents are asked specifically about targeting American citizens living overseas, as was the case with Anwar al-Awlaki, the Yemeni American killed in September in a drone strike in northern Yemen.
If we are going to drop bombs on enemy targets, I would rather have a drone do it instead of an American pilot being put in harms way if we can avoid it.

Who said anything about manned jets? Because your post certainly didn't.
Well, since we have a bunch of mindless "drones" on this forum that need everything explained to them, i'll offer this:
1) Jets drop bombs.
2) Drones drop bombs
3) Liberals hate the idea of a jet dropping a bomb (it's called "war" for the illiterate and liberals hate war)
4) Liberals have no problem dropping a bomb from a drone (it's called "war" for the illiterate and liberals hate war.)
5) Bush dropped bombs from drones. Liberals hated him for it.
6) Obama dropped bombs from drones. Liberals love him for it.
It's called hypocrisy. Do I need to hyperlink to Miriam-Webster for you?

Ah ok. So it's about the pilot in the cockpit, instead of the innocent people on the ground?? That's your concern? Do I have that right?

Amen brother!
A drone is a lot cheaper than an F-16 or A10 Warthog and as you said, if they get lucky and shoot it down, we don't lose a soldier.

There are a lot of assumptions in there, probably because you have made it your only mission in life to think you know what liberals believe. And you fail miserably.
Bush used drones and conservatives loved him. Obama used drones and conservatives hate him. End pointless thread.
