Liberals Oppose the Death Penalty.........But Support Obama's Drone Killings (Barack Obama, election)

[AeroGuyDC]

Liberals fight tooth and nail to eradicate the United States of the death penalty for the most violent offenders.....but when it comes to Barack Obama and his drone strikes on violent offender's around the globe, it's KILL AT WILL, MESSIAH! KILL AT WILL!

The hypocrisy is astounding!

For starters: That most liberals oppose the death penalty AND killing by drones.

I think it's safe to say that "liberals" do not support the death penalty and especially do not when there has been no due process. It's a generalization but I think it's a safe one.

I suppose you can argue that they do not support Obama's use of it here and in some cases that would be right but in many others they supported these actions with their vote.

Most liberals absolutely oppose the death penalty. That is an established fact.

U.S. Death Penalty Support Stable at 63%

Most liberals absolutely support drone strikes....on American's no less!

It's a very safe assumption. In fact, Gallup has polled the question and liberals are not in support of the death penalty overall.

But they DO support drone strikes on American's.

Amazing huh?

I don't know if they support it but they refuse to speak up against it.

To be exact, 55% of liberals did -- when those figures were released nearly 2 years ago.

Which is just like saying that "most American voters" supported Barack Obama's re-election. A majority is a majority, right?

Liberals, Dems approve of drone strikes on American citizens abroad - The Plum Line - The Washington Post

Which liberals support drone strikes?? A blog is not good proof. I'm sure there are plenty of Democrats who support drone strikes, but being a Democrat doesn't make one a liberal.

You want to try again?
