Back to the issue at hand. If I might ask bluntly to Colo, Ken, Tom, and Neal, do you favor executing an American on our soil, absent due process and judicial involvement? I'm not saying some idiot that is in the act of killing or maiming others, and you stop them from continuing, I'm talking about a decision to send a drone over to their home or other location, and kill them, because you think they are a bad guy? If so, this is a departure from any reasonable practices by authorities that I'm aware of. Even when a cop and witnesses sees a person kill somebody, they are not summarily executed without due legal process.

A public relations nightmare for the president and Holder. http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2013/mar/6/rand-paul-filibusters-brennan-nomination-cia-direc/ |

That depends on circumstances as we've all said, Ban. A simple yes or no answer to your question is impossible, not knowing the details. |

Executing..no. If they are a danger to the public yes. |

How can they be a danger to the public when they are at home in bed? |

Perhaps you need to re read Holder5s statements. They had absolutely nothing to do with killing people at home in bed. |

I find he American right's theatrics and rhetoric about killing Americans without due process somewhat amusing. Every time a police office kills someone shooting at the police officer, he has killed someone without the benefit of due process. Is the American right opposed to policemen carrying deadly weapons or using them? Is the American right also opposed to civilians carrying weapons and killing others without the procedure of due process? Has the American right already determined the guilt of Zimmerman? I would imagine the answer to all of these question by the American right would be a hypocritical "no." But who on the right is concerned about such hypocrisy?
