What did I make up? If I made anything up I'll acknowledge it.

Neither one of us knows what it's like to be president and what kind of awful decisions they have to make. Well, maybe you imagine you do because you're so superior. I can't imagine having that kind of ego.
So yeah, this convo is over. Enjoy yourself.
Please, I am all ears. I have been for years. Why is it that we must continue dropping bombs on people that have done nothing to us?
So it's O.K. to be good at indiscriminately killing people as long as you aren't gleeful?
Spin? It seems that he is good at killing people which is the exact opposite of the president he promised to be. He doesn't have to admit that for it to be so.
There have been no indiscriminate drone attacks. Every single one was aimed at a purposeful target, and each target was an enemy of the U.S.
It is no different from dropping bombs out of an aircraft, or a long distance bombardment, or a surface attack. Each goes through a long chain of command that weighs many things, including the possibility of civilian death.
The President does not take such legal action lightly or frivolously. No Presidents ever have, and every President since the end of World War II has authorized actions that killed civilians, the wrong people, and accidental deaths from any number of reasons.
Yu already know all of that, but a cheap shot is always easy to take at any President. There is no glee in killing another, even if that person is trying to kill you first.

Hardly. We have our own soldiers on occasion kill each other by mistake, there is no way war is this precise.

I don't support doing it out of aircrafts either when nobody can explain what we are achieving. Well someone has.

I thought you said that doesn't happen?

The people of Afghanistan are not trying to kill us.
Obama I understand
american people hatred of justice I do not understand
What kind of justice are you talking about here? You want police to be able to go around killing criminals without arresting, charging, and sentencing them? Or you prefer our military and/or the executive branch being able to direct drones to kill people in this country?
Hey, if that's what you like, why not move to some Somalia or Yemen?
Hardly. We have our own soldiers on occasion kill each other by mistake, there is no way war is this precise.
This does not mean mistaken deaths have been indiscriminate. As i said, there have been no plans for any indiscriminate killing.

What does this sentence even mean? All this is is another straw man of yours. Sorry- deflection doesn't work.
I thought you said that doesn't happen?
Another straw man. I never claimed innocent deaths did not happen. I said they never happened indiscriminately.More failed deflection.
The people of Afghanistan are not trying to kill us.
Some of them are, some of them aren't. Just ask any returning vet about the Taliban, who are Afghanis, are doing over there. Yet one more failure from you. If you are going to argue something, try to stay on track.

Gets to be a pain when someone puts their quotes inside yours. Yes, what they are doing over there. If we aren't over there they are not shooting at us. If they came here we would shoot at them also. If they were blowing up our homes we would retaliate also.
Hey hey BHO, how many kids have you blown up with a drone?
