From what I understand, this happened under his direct orders. And while I'm no Constitutional lawyer, I'm pretty sure it violates something or other about the right to due process of law:

QuoteThe acknowledgement came in a letter signed by U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder sent that day to the Senate Judiciary Committee chairman:

Since 2009, the United States, in the conduct of U.S. counterterrorism operations against al-Qa’ida and its associated forces outside of areas of active hostilities, has specifically targeted and killed one U.S. citizen,

Religion is regarded by the common people as true, by the wise as false and by the rulers as useful

Supporter of Teddy Roosevelt?  No wonder the rump-Taft wing of the Rethuglicans don't like him.
I have to be honest, I never know what the fuck you're talking about.
A cynical habit of thought and speech, a readiness to criticise work which the critic himself never tries to perform, an intellectual aloofness which will not accept contact with life’s realities â€" all these are marks, not as the possessor would fain to think, of superiority but of weakness. -TR

Bull moose party ... read some American history.

Due process only applies exceptionally ... if the cop doesn't shoot you for looking cross-eyed at him first.  Why should the top cop in the land (the President) not get to kill folks?

Are you taking any medications?
Don't do that.

Remember when Obama took all our guns away and locked us all in FEMA camps? And then he allowed illegal immigrants and Muslims to force everyone to get gay married and worship Allah? That shit was crazy.
Yeah, I gathered he is still planning to invade Texas.

I've got one!  He made the Republican party go nuts and kill itself and he did that by being a black Democrat who got elected twice and proved to be unimpeachable.
This sentence is a lie...

Heck, if he had polio they'd have to let him run for a third term.

Holy shit, I just figured out how Republicans could get Obama out of the White House TODAY!  Just call the cops.  He's a black man in a nice house!  OF COURSE they'll assume he's burgling the place and haul his ass away!  You're welcome, Republicans!

Except at the golf course.  That isn't criminal, but now that Obama likes it, dammit, it should be!

Admit it. You're secretly green with envy.

The only thing Obama has done wrong is try to be reasonable with the Republicans. The Republicans are not reasonable people; they are a gang of stupid, childish thugs. They oppose Obama because... well, just because. They actually have no reason for their opposition to him, so one can only surmise that it's 1) because he's black and 2) has a (D) after his name. Obama should have spanked them far more often.
