Either you are with us, or you are with the terrorists. Because the terrorists hate our freedoms. So if you don't support our actions againsts the terrorists, you are obviously a freedom hater and a traitor who should move to Canada.

For the first time in our nation's history a president has authorized the assassination of an American. The silence from the left on this issue is deafening.
To answer your questions right here. Long before this Washington Post article came out. I'm the proudest liberal here on these boards.

Just another case of liberals being true to their principles and anti-American right wingers wanting to ignore the Constitution when it suits them.

95% of Conservatives don't have an ounce of real Libertarian in them...LOL

The OP admits to agreeing with the President having the power to select American citizens for assasination without judicial oversight.

Do you know that this US citizen claims through is family he doesnt' get involved with terrorist planning or recruitment?

The OP asks where is the liberal outrage?

Confirmed: Obama authorizes assassination of U.S. citizen - Glenn Greenwald - Salon.com

in Barack Obama's America, the way guilt is determined for American citizens -- and a death penalty imposed -- is that the President, like the King he thinks he is, secretly decrees someone's guilt as a Terrorist. He then dispatches his aides to run to America's newspapers -- cowardly hiding behind the shield of anonymity which they're granted -- to proclaim that the Guilty One shall be killed on sight because the Leader has decreed him to be a Terrorist.

The OP agrees with this. This is what passes for a Conservative these days.

Yes where is the liberal outrage? Let's see if we can find it on the biggest, most liberal website? The right wing version of Worldnetdaily or MichellMalkin.com

Daily Kos: Obama Administration & assassinating US citizens?

Well, that's pretty messed up.

The important issues seems to be this person's membership in Al Quaida. Last time I looked we were trying to kill members of Al Quaida. And no this isn't the first American. Bush also did so.

I'm not an Obama fan, however, he's our President and I do respect that. The guy they're talking about is targeting the lives of Americans. The President's job first and foremost, is to protect the lives of American citizens.

He's simply doing what he has to, as President.

Bush never admitted to specifically targeting US citizens. Yes one was killed in a US attack but there is no evidence whatsoever that this man was specifically targeted.

The issue. Is that they government can declare you part of Al Quaida and kill you without judicial oversight.

Why don't you right wingers just admit you don't give a damn about the Constituion?

Scared little wussies want to just throw out the rule of law cause a few radical muslim peasants are running around on the other side of the World.
