Everything is a game to him.
Can we please have grown ups in charge again?
“The U.S. president requests that his advisers draw up ‘baseball cards’ with pictures and biographies that he pores over to see who should live and who should die. “
I figured he just threw the “wanted cards” on the floor and then tossed a GI Joe doll. Whatever the doll landed on would be the next victim of our most excellent and experienced LIAR in chief.
Soooo....what about that Nobel Peace Prize?
He’s got to find something to do. It’s almost a year until he gets to fill out his NCAA tournament brackets again.
No big words on those cards either.
“Now, sound out the word. You can do it!”
Somebody mistook every Obama’s “FORE!” to mean ‘kill’......
“As part of the bizarre ‘nomination’ process he then retires for personal reflection to work out whether or not to order a drone strike to take them out.”
Yeah, Barry’s personal reflection process: He gets his nails done so he’ll feel pretty, calls the girls for some good gossip and maybe a good cry, catches up the latest edition of Cosmo, then goes to the mall to shop for shoes.
January, 2013. Lots of work to do once this community organizer is sent back to Chicago.
An apostate who plays Go Fish with the lives of AQ militants.
Barry is racking up an awful lot of negative brownie points with the jihadis.
I am curious as to whom he calls for permission during that period of 'personal reflection.'
There’s blood on the MSM’s hands as well, long as 0 is not taken to task. It’s not real until CBS and the NYT dig into it.
Of course it will become real if a Republican is elected.
In the meantime, a variety of people are killed, the vetting process not known, enemies are made, resolve stiffened, and future conflict assured.
Shades of LBJ.
Does anybody have that photo of LBJ picking out the day’s NVN targets for the Air Force? 1,000 words in one picture that illustrated perfectly why we don’t seem to win wars when Dems are allowed to run them.
Can I point out what the press and libtard reaction would be if Bush was using Obama’s “method” here? I mean, this would be THE STORY 24/7 until he was impeached out of office.
Technology has been a double-edged sword for the U.S. It has allowed the President and the Pentagon to stick their noses way too far down the chain of command and micromanage what should be tactical decisions in the battlefield.
I am no fan of Obama, but this story is pure b.s.
Once a person becomes “command tactical”, that is, someone actively leading others engaged in acts of war against any NATO country and is residing outside the United States, they become an HVT, High Value Target.
All HVTs are to be “neutralized” at their soonest availability. Meaning, when they appear down range and can be clearly identified. All HVT’s are on a kill or capture list, meaning that they are first to be captured if possible.
There are no standing orders or presidential memo’s that specify kill only, that would be illegal, even for the President.
If it is determined that the HVT cannot be captured without undue hazard to our forces, of if the HVT is available on such short notice that our forces cannot be assembled, a strike order can be issued by the commander of JSOC, Admiral McRaven, at any time, without review.
If tactical time pressure allows, McRaven will review an ongoing surveillance with the President. Politically significant HVT operations can be vetoed by the President, that’s all.
If bin Laden were observed to be moving out of the compound in Abbottabad before we could send in personnel, on such short notice, we would have cratered the compound and called Obama after the fact.
This hit list is just nonsense, unworkable, assumes Obama could be briefed at any moment 24/7 and doesn’t trust McRaven to make the call, pure b.s.
