RE :”Isn't that interesting? Months ago, the Obama Administration revealed that it would target al-Awlaki. It even managed to wriggle out of a lawsuit filed by his father to prevent the assassination. But the actual legal reasoning the Department of Justice used to authorize the strike? It's secret. Classified. Information that the public isn't permitted to read, mull over, or challenge..

What's the big deal? it‘s not like Obama committed a actual war crime doing something 'illegal' (we were lectured) like water-boarding or easedropping on his phone calls. He just killed a US citizen. Code Pink and Micheal Moores say to move on, nothing to see here. Legal justidfication classified.

Total outrage with Bush/Cheney over the treatment of terrorists...and terrorist’s rights...

Now they don’t give a damn...

The Left is pretty upset than an enemy of America was killed:

ACLU Condemns Killing Of Anwar Al-Awlaki…

weaselzippers.us/2011/09/30/aclu-condemns-killing-of-anwar-al-awlaki

Code Pink has nothing specific that I can find, but they have condemned drone strikes for a long time. The left is always mad when American enemies are killed. I am happy Al-Awlaki is gone.

I’m glad to see al-Awlaki was blown into hopefully small pieces. I’ll let the rest of you argue over the details.

Thanks sickoflibs. And at least he didn’t make the guy wear underwear on his head. Oh, wait, from the pictures, it looks like he wouldn’t have noticed anyway.
