		<description><![CDATA[Thanks for your sane take on this issue as opposed to these knee-jerk partisans on talk radio and the blogosphere. That conservatives are taking the position of the left on this issue is for no other reason than to be contrary to the Obama administration. There are a million issues with which to condemn Obama over, this is not among them.  ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Beanman: I think Mr. Greenfield has made it quite clear what he means. He is talking about Americans who have taken up arms against the U.S.  and are on foreign battlefields. The Mideast is in large part a foreign battlefield. Whether the American is over there with our enemies, cooing to them about the righteousness of their cause and serving them thick coffee, or brandishing an AK47 and shouting &quot;Allah is great!&quot; or &quot;Screw you, America!&quot; he can be taken out as quickly and guiltlessly as any Muslim wearing a dish towel and sporting a lice-ridden beard. It should make no difference to our military. Soldiers and drones really don&#8217;t have the time to spend on authenticating anyone&#039;s citizenship when there&#039;s a chance to shoot back or eliminate a terrorist.  Drones don&#8217;t carry computers that can determine whether or not a guy has a New Jersey DMV-issued license that says he&#039;s American.  ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There is a clearly stated Constitutionally upheld law that if you take up arms with an enemy of the United States, or openly plot the destruction of the United States, your citizenship is automaticly revolked, permanently. And the only way to avoid losing your citizenship is by appeal to the Courts.  
 
So why does anybody continue to pretend Anwar Al-Awlaki was a US citizen at the time of his death? He clearly participated in actions that cost him that honor, therefore he does have NO Constitutional rights, PERIOD.  
 
Although I would have prefered they put him in an exhibit at the Brooklyn Zoo for the rest of his life with the other animals. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[You may disagree with me and I don&#039;t hold with any terrorist of any stripe but I believe that the U.S. Government does not have the right to kill any American citizen anywhere in the world without ANY type of due process whatsoever.  In the history of this country, or any civilized country where the rule of law has been instituted, there has never been an inherent right for the government to kill its own citizens without any sembelance of some sort of due process.  Taking power like this unto ones self is unprecedented in this country.  Beware! 
 
So now the government can shoot them down with a drone fired missle and splatter their guts over a dozen buildings but they can&#039;t waterboard them, now that would be just downright unfair and cruel wouldn&#039;t it. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[However, during the initial actions in Afghanistan and elsewhere, there was a trivial necessity to actually declare that an individual was a specific threat, provide evidence, and then have a judge sign off on it, even if it was done in secret there was a legal decision from a judge.  This was done for American Citizen Padillia (forgot his first name) who is now serving time in some SuperMax prison somewhere.  He was declared an enemy combatant and it was signed of on by a judge.  If he had done what he did during the Obama administration he&#039;d probably be dead.  Now, according to the DoJ memo, there need not be any evidence that the individual is involved in any actual plot to commit treason or an act of terror, just that the person has said this and such and can now be killed.  Oh btw, there is nothing in the DoJ memo that says it can only happen overseas so maybe a drone flying over someone&#039;s compound in northern Idaho can just take out the skinheads that live there because they could be loosly associated with terrorism and terrorism can mean just about anything the DoJ and/or the President want it to, the memo says its okay.

		<description><![CDATA[I do not understand these people. If an Awlaki brain brother is &quot;over there&quot; waging war against the U.S. or at least helping the enemy in the way of aiding and abetting its war against us, where&#039;s the loophole in taking him out when he&#039;s in the company of genuine, certified, Islamic-garbed enemies? Why is this logic so elusive to the liberals? Frankly, anyone who&#039;s gone to the Dark Side and is caught with his allegiance down to his ankles in enemy territory has forfeited any and all Constitutional protection and guarantees. He&#039;s voluntarily surrendered them. He&#039;s the enemy, too, in or out of uniform, in or out of Arab garb. Are these anti-drone chompers perceptually arrested, or what? How do they spell &quot;logic&quot;? With two L&#039;s and a K? ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Contrary to what Joe Scarborough says, the government of the United States has ALWAYS had the power to kill Americans without due process. That&#039;s the bottom line of govenment power.  
 
What is that people are concerned about when it comes to distrusting government if it&#039;s not the ability of government to muster overwhelming killing power against the governed? Why the hell do conservatives want government be small? I don&#039;t think it&#039;s because they want to prevent Social Security acts. ]]></description>
