What amazes me is how the media and certain politicians crapped little green apples over water boarding known terrorists which didn't hurt anyone yet they basically ignore even US citizens being assassinated by drones.

Well the good news is that they wish to use drones to start policing our own citizens by spying in our back yards and peering through our windows.

Some local municipalities in this country are already putting them to use.

A lot of local municipalities are also using Google Earth to check up on what people are doing in their yards. I have heard of a few stories where people were busted having pools in the yard without having the proper permits from images of their property from Google.

This is getting a little to ceeepy for me. When did we stop becoming citizens and start becoming government property? They want more and more and more gun control while more and more of our privacy is taken away while they murder citizens who havent been tried and proven guilty.
These things are far more likely to crash than manned aircraft. This is getting out of control. How much longer are we going to put up with this?

Which media would that be - the New York Times, for example?

None of them are making a big deal out of the strikes. When Bush was in office they harped all the time when there was collateral damage from a strike and every little thing else. They even made a big deal about Bush golfing while troops where in harm's way. The Ossiah played more golf in a year and a half than Bush did in 8 but thats fine. Last I looked 0bama deployed troops too. The only thing worse than the media is the brainless drones who eat what they are serving up with a spoon.

Your rhetoric notwithstanding (Ossiah/Bush - because D's are vile tricksters and R's can tell no lies), I think we might actually agree.

Who said anything about the parties? I am talking about the media. I actually support the drone strikes with the exception of the part where they say they can assassinate US citizens without operational intelligence. It's the hypocrisy that gets me.
