Nancy Pelosi says drone strikes
on Americans can stay secret

Washington Times, by Cheryl K. Chumley

Original Article

Posted By:Dreadnought, 2/18/2013 9:34:51 PM

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi said the White House doesn’t necessarily have to confess to killing American citizens by unarmed drones. It all depends on the situation, she said in reply to a Huffington Post reporter who asked if President Obama´s administration should acknowledge when it targets a U.S. citizen in a drone strike, the Washington Examiner reported. “Maybe, it just depends,” she reportedly said. “People just want to be protected.” She also said that such disclosure “depends on the timing, because that’s right — it’s all about the timing.” At least one Republican House colleague is outraged.

She has always been crazy but this is a new limit. Alzheimers or dementia?

Pelosi says her views would be the same even if a Republican were in the White House. Like George Bush, Nancy? Yeah, right.

Yeah right. Once a Republican is in the White House, she´ll be the first to rail against the policy.

You know, like the time she said she never was told about use of "torture" by the intelligence agencies -- although she and other congressional leaders were all in the same briefing.


Reply 4 - Posted by: BarryNo, 2/18/2013 9:53:27 PM     (No. 9183987)

How do you kill someone with an ´unarmed´ drone? Kamikaze?

And If Ms. P is suggesting that the President can secretly do away with this or that American, it is past time for the Revolution to begin. These people need to be removed from power before they hurt someone.


Reply 5 - Posted by: 4Justice, 2/18/2013 9:53:52 PM     (No. 9183989)

Yeah, Nancy, why would Americans need to know about other Americans being murdered by their government? Geez...these tyrants are unbelievable!


Reply 6 - Posted by: dcomd, 2/18/2013 10:13:26 PM     (No. 9184008)

So Nancy, let me make sure I´ve got this straight: you´re OK with it, if you´re targeted first?


Reply 7 - Posted by: LittleHoodedMonk, 2/18/2013 10:14:40 PM     (No. 9184009)

This would make me question with what lies are being tossed around still at the White House, did they have Ambassador Stevens murdered in Benghazi...and why?

A Democrat keep a secret? Get real.

The problem is, how can drone strikes be kept secret when they start leaving dead bodies lying around in their wake?

And what about the drones themselves? Won´t people start getting suspicious if they see large objects with wings flying down the street?

This isn´t Pakistan. America is a densely populated area, made up of cities surrounded by wall-to-wall masses of urban sprawl connected to each other from sea to shining sea.

Unless a terrorist has the good grace to take a walk in the Mohave Desert so the Feds can target him with a drone without causing collateral damage, the drone program is not a good option for the U.S.


Reply 12 - Posted by: CEP, 2/18/2013 10:38:15 PM     (No. 9184035)

Would this be like WACO? Yes, it´s about the timing as long as a democrat is in the White House it´s okay but if it was a Republican they would be run out of town on a rail. Anyway this is so wrong, this has nothing to do with people wanting to be protected because it may just be vengeance taken out on citizens who disagree with liberals. These people need to be thrown out of office and thrown in jail.

Pardon the extra post but if the drone is unarmed would this be like a bump and burn, hit and run. Maybe start with taking out neighborhoods that gangs have infested, people would be protected then, maybe Chicago could have a few strikes.

This is from the same woman who (along with a bunch of other Liberals) was outraged that phone calls from suspected terrorists outside the country could be tapped -- well, she was outraged when it was a member of the OTHER party in office.

You know,the liberals love sliding scales because that way nobody gets left behind. The problem is they could apply their sliding scale theory on who or what is a terrorist.

There can´t be that many Americans overseas working for Islamists unless legitimate left wing diplomats.

There´s really no reason to have this drone policy unless they´re up to no good.Executing people without a trail is what the left used to fight tooth and nail against and now they´re rolling over for it.


Reply 22 - Posted by: Trigger2, 2/19/2013 4:09:29 AM     (No. 9184254)

Given that Peelousy saddled us citizens and businesses with that death bill, I´d say SHE should be on the list for a drone strike.

what really bothers me most about their little plan is that they said they can use drones against "Americans that are SUSPECTED of having terrorist ties". Not proven to have...suspected!! Forget the sliding scale, they will just use it as they wish. Anybody can be suspected of anything...

First missile fired will trigger the patriot movement to put the Bill Clinton rules of engagement into action. Target the leadership, political, financial, educational, judicial and last but not least media/propaganda types. And just to add some spice, the heads of some large corporate types who are fond of towing the wanna be dictators line.
Sound kinda drastic and dramatic? They believe they can do it to you. When they find themselves targeted with no place to hide, the rules will change in a flash.

Perry’s first veto strikes down
dark money disclosure bill
Houston Chronicle, by David Rauf    Original Article

UPDATE: Perry responds to SB 346 veto: “Freedom of association and freedom of speech are two of our most important rights enshrined in the Constitution. My fear is that SB 346 would have a chilling effect on both of those rights in our democratic political process. While regulation is necessary in the administration of Texas political finance laws, no regulation is tolerable that puts anyone’s participation at risk or that can be used by any government, organization or individual to intimidate those who choose to participate in our process through financial means.

The latest reporting in the matter of Fox News Channel’s James Rosen indicates the Obama administration fought to keep the search warrant for Rosen’s private email account secret, arguing that the government might need to monitor the account for a lengthy period of time. Thank you, Ryan Lizza. And one more thing. Despite Eric Holder’s his protestations of ignorance regarding the Rosen matter, NBC reports that Holder himself authorized the warrant application. Hmmm. Does that mean he might not have been entirely forthcoming about the matter in his testimony

WASHINGTON — Haynes Johnson, a pioneering Washington journalist who won a Pulitzer Prize for his coverage of the civil rights movement and migrated from newspapers to television, books and teaching, died Friday. He was 81. The Washington Post reported he died at Suburban Hospital in Bethesda, Md. In a statement to the Post newsroom, Managing Editor Kevin Merida said Johnson died of a heart attack. Johnson was awarded a Pulitzer in 1966 for national reporting on the civil rights struggle in Selma, Ala., while with The Evening Star in Washington. He spent

The FBI has arrested a San Antonio man on charges he lied to get into the United States and tried to get a sensitive Defense Department position. Wissam Allouche, 44, appeared for an initial hearing Friday afternoon, and shook his head when U.S. Magistrate Judge Henry Bemporad read the charges leveled in a federal indictment. The judge ordered him held pending a bail hearing and his arraignment Tuesday. “He allegedly tried to cover up his affiliation with Hezbollah,” said special agent Erik Vasys, spokesman for the FBI in San Antonio. “It is believed

A FREE press in a democracy demands a delicate balance. The First Amendment means the media must have the right to inquire without hindrance. The government has a legitimate interest in keeping some national security information secret. When these come into conflict, the balance often has been struck this way: The media are free to pursue secrets, but it is up to those in government to keep them. When the media come into possession of information that, if disclosed, could be damaging, the government can plead the case for secrecy — and the media generally are open to persuasion.

The brutal murder of an off-duty soldier by two Muslim activists continues to dominate the news in Great Britain. The scene was utterly bizarre: in broad daylight, in a busy section of London, the two Muslims apparently ran the soldier down with a car, within a block or two of his barracks, and then attacked him with knives and a meat cleaver. They attempted to behead him, apparently not quite successfully, as hundreds of passers-by looked on. No one stopped them–private ownership of firearms being illegal in the U.K.–but three random women

A day after insurers complained that Kathleen Sebelius and the Obama administration had pressured them to fund Enroll America, a House committee sent them a request for more information on the matter. The Energy and Commerce Committee had already begun looking into whether Sebelius had broken any laws by attempting to get donations from an industry that will be heavily regulated by her under ObamaCare, and now The Hill reports this new request as a widening of that probe (via Rare): House Republicans have widened their probe of Health and Human Services

Conservative radio host Mark Levin is very skeptical of the idea that President Obama had absolutely no idea about the IRS tea party targeting before the story broke in the news mere weeks ago. Levin declared adamantly that it is a “flat-out, bald-faced lie” that Obama didn’t know beforehand, citing prior reports by a few conservative news outlets picking up on the news well before the 2012 presidential election. Levin said, “I don’t believe for two seconds that Obama wasn’t aware of this.”

President Obama on Thursday nominated Victoria Nuland, a State Department official involved in the editing of the administration´s talking points on Benghazi, to be the next assistant secretary of state for European and Eurasian affairs. Nuland, a career foreign service officer who was until recently State´s top spokesperson, had long been expected to be nominated the post to replace Philip Gordon, who Obama picked to serve as Middle East coordinator for the National Security Council. Nuland´s nomination -- which requires Senate confirmation -- could come under scrutiny from Republicans who see her as playing a central role in shaping

Anthony Weiner’s New York mayoral candidacy was only made more improbable today after he revealed that he visited a Houston psychiatric facility following his resignation from Congress in 2011. Haunted by scandal surrounding his sexually explicit online communications with women, the Democratic former congressman sought treatment for his compulsive behavior from mental health professionals at the Gabbard Center. According to its website, the facility provides “3-day outpatient psychiatric evaluation,” particularly to “professionals who are in personal or professional crises.” While Weiner did not disclose

Washington rumor has it that Obama wants to be U.N. Secretary General. There are several reasons that make that likely, and if it´s true, it throws new light on a lot of Obama´s oddities -- including his Royalty Bows, his Apology Tours, his Muslim Sellout, and the Benghazi Cover-Up. But first -- why would Obama be planning to become the chief of the U.N. before he has even finished his second term?

On Wednesday, Drummer Lee Rigby of the Royal Regiment of Fusiliers, a man who had served Queen and country honorably in the hell of Helmand Province in Afghanistan, emerged from his barracks on Wellington Street, named after the Duke thereof, in southeast London. Minutes later, he was hacked to death in broad daylight and in full view of onlookers by two men with machetes who crowed "Allahu Akbar!" as they dumped his carcass in the middle of the street like so much roadkill. As grotesque as this act of savagery was, the aftermath was even more unsettling

MARK LEVIN: So why didn´t Chairman Issa hold an investigative hearing a year ago? Why didn´t Chairman Camp, all Republicans, hold an investigative hearing a year ago, and all the other tripping over themselves right now? I´ll tell you why. Because the establishment Republicans, the RINO Republicans, despise the Tea Party. They despise the conservative movement. We exist to be managed, to be shuttled to the polling place, to vote for their candidates. The Karl Roves of the world, and all the rest of them. They fight us in the primaries, they fight us at the grassroots.

Fox News chief Roger Ailes has sent a memo to his subordinates at the leading cable news network. He sent this memo to his staff today in connection with the federal investigation into an alleged leak to Fox News reporter James Rosen, a story that the Washington Post’s Ann E. Marimow broke earlier this week. The memo’s a masterpiece, too. For all those who wonder what it is about Ailes that endears his people to him — and that makes him such a good interviewee for any media reporter lucky enough to get an audience
