I’m glad the traitor is dead, but didn’t Obama have enough time to try him for treason in absentia and then order execution with some semblance of due process for an admittedly despicable citizen?
2. But Ron Paul is an antisemitic, pro-jihad, pro-drug, isolationist, pro-illegal-alien lunatic.
3. Therefore it must be OK to sometimes kill American Citizens without due process.
4. But we don't want Star Chambers or death panels, so...
Oh my, this is confusing.
Any one care about the Constitutional right to due process? When will they vote to kill you for being on free republic? Hummmm? Any constitutional concerns here for US citizens or do we just kill’em? Let’s have the government just vote who dies— Yeah Dats it!! Have we lost our country??
This terrorist was actively waging war and bragging about it on the internet. He wasn't in custody of the USA. This particular terrorist was nothing more than an anchor baby to begin with. I absolutely despise the current inhibitor of the Whitehouse, but this is reaching. That missile saved ground personnel from having to extract him for trial.
Excerpt from the 5th Admendment: No person shall... be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law;...
Excerpt from the 14th Admendment: ...No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law...
Nope, the type of cans you put beans in, who can marry who or any other thing they can find in the Constitution, but plain text and meaning is quite beyond their ability. Perhaps they should read this from the Declaration of Independance: But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security. I would suggest that if we have to institute a new government to garner back our freedom, we use the Constitution of the Unites States of America. The plain text version of course.
This secret panel sounds like the assassin squad in The Bourne Identity.
I wonder if one way that you might make this list is to inquire about this list?
We are constitutionally over the edge and holding on to a weed trying to clamor back.
that is just bull.
please remember we are at war and the killing was an act of war.
I know it is difficult to comprehend a war with no front being prosecuted in remote places and cities all over the world, but.....try
Due process is not involved and irelevant
The fact he was born in America is totally irrelevant
More like “What the hell are we going to do with them if they are captured??” Send them to Quantanamo....He doesn’t want NO ONE going there...especially now.
We lost our country when someone decided that the US Constitution doesn’t apply during war.
But then, that would take someone in Government that knew how to actually follow the law. The present group of "leaders" feel themselves above the law, or are simply lawless. I fear the only law they would ever follow is the law of gravity at a gallows.
The hole this Admin has been digging has turned into a bottomless pit.
The hits just keep coming. It’s time for these Fascist to learn we have a Constitution and Laws, AND THEY MUST OBEY THEM JUST LIKE THE REST OF US.
When did congress declare “WAR” ? I just missed that. What date?
It's a situation to be handled by the Constitution.
ha ha ha......
it is a new world and new rules apply to situation that is not covered by the constitution that considered war to be between sovereign nations
Another death panel? The healthscare bill won’t be enough?
I think the fact of one of these scrots being put on the list, along with the names and/or titles of the folks on the panel, should be made public.
Sure the much of the evidence, and in some cases who presented it, needs to be kept secret, sources and methods you know. But let the bastards worry about there being a Hellfire on a drone above them with their name on it. Of course they are probably worried anyway, but getting their names on a wanted Dead or Alive, preferably Dead, poster might help.
Congress could issue a letter Marque or Reprisal, the former in the case of seaborne terrorists, like those who prey in the waters of the northwestern Indian ocean. Have every dude with a jeep, a land cruiser or a camel hunting those on land.
The biggest problem is elite liberals see Tea Party members as ‘terrorists’. Someday we might wish we had fought this one...
Where are these new rules written when they come and get you as a “terrorist”? By the way— give me the definition of terrorist that they will use at your committee meeting when they vote to kill you with out a trial? Please get a clue.
