Thank you. So much for my "making up stories" according to another poster.

Excellent news... the best part is that some guy was probably drinking beer and eating doritos as he carried out the drone attack.

Bush had started to agree with Obama's philosophy (which McCain made a big deal of) earlier since these raids have been officially sanctioned y W since July/08 (BBC). The Syrian raid bothers me much more as it opened up a brand new front 2 weeks before election. There have been massive protests in Syria - BBC World news on cable seems to have good coverage.
