But that we are still having regardless of the party in power. This is truly the most disturbing aspect of the Obama administration and the Democratic party overall:
Obama’s top Terrorism adviser John Brennan recently suggested that there could be “dozens” of Americans who have been targeted for assassination, and Glenn Greenwald appeared on the Dylan Ratigan show today to discuss the implications.

This is just more proof that
we can't move forward if we don't first look back... And punish the previous crimes.

Looking backwards from Obama's willingness to assassinate
Americans has forced me to begin to go down the path of thinking that, just perhaps, the Bush Administration really was responsible for Mike Connell's plane crash.
It's so much easier to get there from here, now.

Are you on the list? It seems that it is limited to citizens overseas but maybe not.
Does the administration have to announce the members of the list? Probably not.
Do they get to do the killing it in secret? Sure, that's the deal. It's "national security."
So when someone prominently aligned against the administration (hence against the war on terror) gets bumped off or otherwise disposed of in a fatal way, won't we have to wonder - were they hit with that presidential sanction? Think of it, the paranoid fear that this policy can engender.
This is THE low point of the many low points in the destruction of the Constitution and our most basic human right - life.
