Very interesting that NBC picked up that story....

Yes, I thought the same thing.
This is frightening. No trial. No warrant. Free rein to kill at will over perceived threats.

Re: Drone Attacks on Americans
I don't guess I see the problem here.
A US citizen joins a terrorist group whose objectives are to kill Americans.
Why wouldn't he be subject to the same rules of engagement.
To me the opposite would be hypocritical.

Today's activist is tomorrow's terrorist.
This is a shame and part of a mindset that was codified with the passing of the Patriot Act.

True, showing that neither party gives a flip about our Constitution or it's people. I hope this SuperPac Rhino plan that Karl Rove has conjured up will cause a third party to emerge or clean up the dirty Republicans who want to lamb-blast the true Conservatives.

I've been watching House of Cards and if our government is run anything like or just a small percentage of how this show is presenting it, it's all a bunch of crock! Dirty on ALL SIDES.

Re: Drone Attacks on Americans
There is no due process in drone attacks.
Remember that before too long there will be 30,000 drones patrolling our skies.

I think we see that more than ever. I became wide awake to it during the Republican Primary. Dirty on ALL SIDES. Keep an eye on Karl Rove now. He wants to take down the remaining conservatives. Other groups are forming to fight against him. This is going to get really ugly.
