Will you libs be absolute hypocrites (of course). Will you call Bush Hitler over the Patriot Act decrying the tracking of Library Books (Oh the Humanity!) but be silent on the Obama admin saying they can use drones on AMERICANS they "suspect" of being terrorists????
THE SAME ADMIN THAT WANTED TO GIVE 9/11 TERRORISTS A TRIAL AS IF THEY WERE AMERICAN CITIZENS NOW WANTS TO KILL REAL AMERICANS WITHOUT TRIAL??????

After years in the shadows, the administrations secret drone program burst into very public view Wednesday with lawmakers grilling the attorney general over legal justification for targeted killings and Sen. Rand Paul launching an old-style one-man filibuster to demand answers from President Obama.
The Kentucky Republican held the floor for almost 13 hours, effectively blocking a vote on the nomination of John O. Brennan, whom Mr. Obama has tapped to be CIA director. He said he would relent only if the administration publicly vowed not to target Americans on U.S. soil.
Under close questioning by Sen. Ted Cruz, Mr. Holder repeatedly said American citizens on U.S. soil were not appropriate targets for extrajudicial executions.
Mr. Cruz said that wasnt good enough.
You keep saying appropriate. My question isnt about propriety. My question is about whether something is constitutional or not, the Texas Republican said.

Now I know you libs already have your talking points. I already know two arguments you are going to make
1) "The Drone Program was started under BUUUUUUUUUUUUSH!"
True, but Bush preferred CAPTURING terrorists and getting information out of them. And if you can find the Bush admin arguing that they could target AMERICANS ON AMERICAN SOIL (and without trial), you let me know. (I know you won't be able to)
2) "Well, here we go again. Republicans wouldn't hold BUUUUUUUUUUSH accountable for the drone program but now they go after Obama!"
BUT the Bush admin wasn't arguing they should be able to give foreign terrorists trials with juries, while arguing they could target AMERICANS ON AMERICAN SOIL WITHOUT A TRIAL.
I can't wait to hear how else you LYING HYPOCRITE PHONY LIBS will twist yourselves into knots trying to excuse the Obama admin.
My guess is, you know I already shot down your talking points and will keep silent, hoping this argument would go away.
