His son was not and was killed 2 weeks after the father. I'm talking about
a 16 year old kid. Murdered by our government without due process, outside
time of war, in a foreign country. In a targeted attack.
You know the difference as well as I do.

I never knew that the AQ controlled areas of Yemen were considered friendly
territory. And what is the difference between someone shooting at you over
a dune or from behind a trench. The issue is that the guy by words,
beliefs, and actions was attempting to kill our people. To me that is a
capital
On the field of battle, and by the side of a road eating dinner in a
supposedly friendly nation are two different things.
It might help if we were in a declared war..

Since the Spanish America War, the Pershing Expedition in Mexico, The First

You mean like CA did three years ago when it created IOU currency.
Funny thing about it is that they could pay people with IOU currency, but
those same citizens could not pay CA with the issued IOU's.

What? You don't believe that fiat currency, only backed up by the
confidence people put into it, is the way to go? What can go wrong with a
system which allows the endless printing of money? Paul Krugman definitely
agrees:

'Bout the same time Arizona has the right to police its borders or Colorado
and Washington State have the right to legalize recreational marijuana.
Taking the subject of the legislation
I just said it isn't the right way to handle it.
Since when can we kill Americans without due process? Since when can we

business
