1. A Teabagger?
I wouldn't be OK with that. OK, maybe a little.

2. People ask me why I can't (and won't vote for Obama)
in 2012.

For some reason things like this are not considered good enough justification.

3. But guess who's butt would be in a sling...
if this guy is gunned down in cold blood. It won't be Obama. The shooter is still held accountable no matter who gives the kill order if they kill illegally.

Obama Administration: US Forces Can Assassinate Americans Believed to Be Involved in Terrorist Activity

The Obama administration has acknowledged it’s continuing a Bush-era policy authorizing the killing of US citizens abroad. The confirmation came from Director of National Intelligence Dennis Blair in congressional testimony last week. Blair said, "Being a US citizen will not spare an American from getting assassinated by military or intelligence operatives overseas if the individual is working with terrorists and planning to attack fellow Americans." We speak to Rep. Dennis Kucinich and blogger and attorney Glenn Greenwald.

Guests:

Rep. Dennis Kucinich (D-OH), last week he wrote a letter to Attorney General Eric Holder requesting an explanation of the Obama administration’s legal basis for the extrajudicial killing of US citizens.

Glenn Greenwald, constitutional law attorney and political and legal blogger for Salon.com. He wrote a widely circulated piece for Salon last week called 'Presidential Assassinations of US Citizens'
