U.S. Citizens Abroad Violates

There is new reaction from the White House after the Justice Department released a memo saying the government can kill United States citizens overseas if it believes they are terror suspects and even if they’re not involved in an active plot against the U.S. A bipartisan group of senators is calling on President Obama to release all memos related to this policy. White House Press Secretary Jay Carney said, “[President Obama] takes his responsibility in conducting the war against Al Qaeda as authorized by Congress in a way that is fully consistent with

Are those "Assault Drones" or just single shot drones ?

How much drone do you really need ?

Wait..wait....Don´t we need to conduct a background search on you, Mr.President, before allowing you to have these weapons ????

Don´t forget that these left-wingers once discussed having to get rid of 25 million Americans that couldn´t be reeducated when they took over.

There is a silver lining to the cloud: drone targets will be spared the indescribable torture of waterboarding. Nor can their right to due process be violated, since even though they are technically American citizens, for some reason not clearly explained they never had such a right, and anyway, even if they did, they are now dead, raising the famous question, "What DIFFERENCE does it make now?"

I *love* the ´operative phrase´ in that mess - "...even if they’re not involved in an active plot against the U.S."

So we have judge, jury and executioner Obama - who incidentally has a ´child body count´ on his hands about 1 greater than the current news cycle ´gun violence´ story...

...playing the part of third-world dictator, and doing the same thing to ´Due Process´ he´d like to do to the 2nd Amendment - gut it.

Will *somebody* please impeach this law-breaking jerk?

Edit to above (buggy fingers...)

Reason magazine notes Obama has close to 200 ´corollary´ child deaths on his hands from drone strikes...

But not to worry - they´re not US citizens so he didn´t violate *their* due process...

Obama trusts the Muslim Brotherhood with tanks and fighter planes, because they are a threat to Jews and to Israel, I think. No ten round limit on their ammo clips.

But American gun owners are treated as a threat to his regime...??!!

We who are patriots are willing to use our guns to defend freedom against all enemies, foreign and domestic. Even new citizens make that promise.

Obama made that promise, but when he arms and trusts the Muslim Brotherhood and the Mexican drug cartels more than he arms or trusts those who have a clear track record of being pro-American, he makes himself appear to be a domestic enemy. His Justice Department claims it is justifiable to kill enemies of America, even if they claim American birth, if their threat to our nation is imminent.

He may come to regret that he (via his DOJ) has affirmed that principle.

One more time - if the administration can justify the killing of U.S. citizens while abroad, if they are suspected to be helping al queada on terrorism, what would stop the president from doing the same thing U.S. citizens on American soil?
And is this the klown who campaigned in 2008 promising to shut down military commissions, and give terrorists trials in U.S. federal court, with all constitutional protections??

So if we get fed up with living in the Land of King Obama and move to another country, we become fair game for this criminal administration? Napolitano has become drunk with power and her recent comment on running for POTUS in 2014 is proof of that. May the fleas of a thousand camels infest her covered-up parts.

We can splatter them with drone strikes, wiping out their wives, kids and other innocents as collateral damage in the process, but by damn, you´d better not lock them up in Gitmo with three squares, a prayer rug, a Koran and better conditions than our troops ever lived under, like those war criminals Bush, Cheney and Rumsfeld did.

Our citizenship requirement has sank to anybody. Citizenship should include a little more than birth here, or to someone else with tenuous birth connections. The ones targeted that have some citizenship connections -- good riddance. I don´t miss ya.

Who gets to write the definition of "terrorist"? Does it include those who profess an interest in throwing off the shackles of a liberal marxist government? Someone who owns more than 500 rounds of ammo? A veteran? Talk about your slippery slope.

Am for the liberal use of the Predators and other missile systems to kill Terrorists and those that covertly help terrorists. This process brings instant justice within one inch of the Terrorist...so close they are not a problem any longer. This is good !

Obama faces choice on
morning-after pill limits

WASHINGTON— President Barack Obama supports requiring girls younger than 17 to see a doctor before buying the morning-after pill. But fighting that battle in court comes with its own set of risks. A federal judge in New York on Friday ordered the Food and Drug Administration to lift age restrictions on the sale of emergency contraception, ending the requirement that buyers show proof they’re 17 or older if they want to buy it without a prescription. The ruling accused the Obama administration in no uncertain terms of letting the president’s pending re-election cloud its judgment when it

   

 

  


 
GOP Must Stop ´My Way or the

Breitbart Big Government, by Ben Shapiro    Original Article
Posted By: JoniTx- 4/7/2013 6:06:56 PM     Post Reply
Projecting madly, the White House on Sunday pushed the notion that Republican intransigence is the reason that Democrats have been unable to pass a budget during President Obama’s tenure. “Right now,” said senior White House advisor Dan Pfeiffer on Fox News Sunday, “the approach of many Republicans, particularly the leadership in the House, is my way or the highway.” This is certainly rich coming from an administration that has failed to garner a single “yes” vote on its budget proposals for the past several years, even from members of its own party.

A young diplomat from River Forest was among five Americans killed Saturday in an explosion in Afghanistan, according to her family and the U.S. State Department. A sixth American was killed in a separate attack in eastern Afghanistan. Anne Smedinghoff was 25, said her father Tom Smedinghoff, who was reached by phone. "She was doing what she loved and she was doing great things," her father said. "We´re just in total shock."

WASHINGTON — President Obama went out for a round of golf Saturday afternoon, his second weekend in a row to hit the links at a course at Joint Base Andrews. The president golfed with White House aides Marvin Nicholson, Joe Paulsen, and Michael Brush. Last Saturday, the president played golf at the same course with Nicholson, Brush, and friend and Chicago businessman Marty Nesbitt. The outing marked his first time on the golf course since the sequester cuts went into place on March 1. The president also took in the Syracuse-Marquette NCAA tournament basketball game

No doubt there are parents who have frank, frequent, open and easy discussions with their teens about sex. I’ve never met any. I do know parents, however, who were stunned to find their 15-year-old’s birth control pills in her pocketbook. Or who came home early to discover junior and a girl they’d never met frantically buttoning up. Or who found out — when their children were grown — what really went on when Meghan said she was sleeping over at Ashley’s. Such sobering tales of teens snookering mom and dad caused mixed emotions in me — a solidly pro-choice

Last fall, Ginnette Powell traveled from her home in Boston´s Dorchester section to her old middle school in South Boston - a journey of just two miles, but one that covered a huge emotional distance. Finally, she was able to leave the painful past behind. Powell endured the explosive battle over desegregation in Boston in the 1970s. Tears come to her eyes when she talks about how it took her decades to return to the place where she never felt safe as an African-American seventh-grader."It was scary because of what you were going into, getting bricks thrown at your bus.

A few years after the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, Lindalyn Adams was escorting visitors on a bus traveling down Elm Street near Dealey Plaza. “I was pointing out the John Neely Bryan cabin and the Old Red Courthouse, and suddenly I realized the whole bus was leaning towards the right as we were going close to the Texas School Book Depository, and the women [were] pointing and saying, “Is that? Is that? Is that?’” Adams recalled during an oral history interview. She knew, of course, what “that” meant. “That” was where Kennedy had been shot.

They’re big. They’re ugly. They’re noisy. And they’re coming. So get ready. The blockbuster brood of the periodical cicada, large insects that emerge en masse from the ground in 17-year intervals across the northeast, is on its way — and New York City’s largest public radio station is encouraging residents in Central Jersey and beyond to help track the invasion. “The whole idea came from our news director, Jim (Schachter, of Summit), who lives in New Jersey — he promised his wife that they would move from their home before the 17-year cicadas came back,”

The night began like many at Boorda Hall, a five-story barracks at Naval Station Great Lakes, the Navy´s premier training base on the shore of Lake Michigan in Illinois. Somebody announced a party, and the hard drinking and beer pong began. A 21-year-old Marine lance corporal, so drunk on rum and Mountain Dew she was slurring her words, went to look for Kyle Antonacci, a Navy seaman she´d been dating off and on. Antonacci soon texted his friend Mike Pineda to help him deal with her. Both men had sex with her that night. But what distinguished May 8, 2009,

A U.S. Foreign Service officer was killed and four others wounded in Afghanistan while carrying out a goodwill mission in the eastern part of the country. The State Department team was delivering books to an Afghan school in the Qalat district of Zaul province when their convoy was hit by a suicide bomber, Secretary of State John Kerry said Saturday. "She was everything a foreign service officer should be: smart, capable, eager to serve, and deeply committed to our country and the difference she was making for the Afghan people," Kerry said of the slain official.

President Obama´s biggest gaffe yesterday when speaking of California Attorney General Kamala Harris was not in flirtatiously complimenting her as "the best-looking attorney general," but in introducing an observation from the system of beauty into a forum that was about the system of power.What´s that, you say? Irin Carmon does a great job in Salon in laying out the bounds of propriety for when it´s appropriate to talk about a woman´s looks as a general matter.

The 34-year-old information management officer was one of four Americans murdered in the Benghazi embassy attack on September 11, 2012.

Ms. Smith first relayed how her son, prior to the attack, requested additional security in advance and warned the State Department: He did tell them, ahead of time, he typed it into his little typewriter over there,

No one is more preoccupied these days with Hillary Clinton´s 2016 plans than the Beltway political class—not even the former presidential candidate herself. To hear some tell it, her decision will be dispositive for all other Democrats thinking of entering the race. And pundits and reporters aren´t the only ones positing the "The Hillary Factor": No less than the House Democratic whip, Steny Hoyer, told BuzzFeed, “I don´t know that anybody would run against Hillary…. If she runs, she clears the field.” It´s an understandable conclusion, given Clinton´s stature in the Democratic Party and her 70 percent

Put out an all-points bulletin: Millions of Americans have gone missing from the workforce. Every month that those would-be workers are gone raises the odds that they might never come back, dimming the prospects for future economic growth. The vanishing trend is more than a decade old, but it accelerated during the Great Recession. Throughout 2012, economists held out hope that it had stopped. But then came Friday’s jobs report, and hopes were dashed. The Labor Department reported that the U.S. labor force — everyone who has a job or is looking for one — shrank

Recent research indicates that the number of people who do not consider themselves a part of an organized religion is steadily on the rise. Interestingly enough, though the number of those religiously unaffiliated is increasing, there is little to no trend in the number of those who express atheist or agnostic beliefs. People aren’t saying they don’t believe in God. They’re saying they don’t believe in religion. They are not rejecting Christ. They are rejecting the church. This begs the question, “Why are we losing our religion?”
