WTF has actually stepped into the truth for a change. If I asked you not to shoot Santa you would say I'm am not going to shoot Santa. You ask Obama (Holder) that he not kill Americans on American soil and he can't answer the question. WTF sees the truth but is not willing to acknowledge it.

Same thing your mother said when she calfed you.You are correct. It had ZERO value before I made fun of it and it has ZERO value after.
You can make the same stupid analogies to fantasy figures all day long. You are getting like WE1911 with his evolution posts.
It doesn't change the value of what Paul did. And I don't even care for the guy's politics. Originally Posted by ExNYer

They were not going to drone any citizens in this country that were not engaged in combat, in fact they were not going to drone anybody engaged in combat, now they can.
No. If someone is actually engaged in combat against the US (i.e., an armed insurrection), then POTUS can use whatever fucking weapons he wants, not just drones. So he can send tanks after them if he wants. That was true BEFORE the filibuster and it is still true.
IMHO, they should not be able to drone period.
So, if an actual shooting war broke out, you wouldn't be in favor of suing drones to suppress a rebellion? How about tanks and helicopter gunships?
That has been my point....Rand Paul just gave them a huge opening by asking the wrong question.
No, he didn't. The POTUS can't do anything he could not do before. But he is now on record as saying that drones can't be used against Americans "engaged in terrorism" as opposed to "engaged in combat". Originally Posted by WTF
Like I said earlier, aside form anything else, Paul just made an impression on the voting public thus starting the process of getting his name on the 2016 ballot .. Originally Posted by CJ7Good for him! I'm not ready to vote Republican, but if he keeps this up, I might, if he gets the nomination.
Good for him! I'm not ready to vote Republican, but if he keeps this up, I might, if he gets the nomination.big banks and corporations rule the political empire, T-H-A-T will never change, regardless who or what gets elected into office
I would be so different if we had a President that believed in freedom, and actually stood for something other than big banks and corporations. Originally Posted by CuteOldGuy
You might actually be right, this time, CBJ7. But it would be fun to try. And since you feel that way, why do you continually support the most sold out President we've ever had?

I have supported Obama on the DREAM Act, and on his handling of OBL's son-in-law. I have also praised his SCOTUS appointments on a couple of recent cases. What have you opposed Obama on? Nothing. Just as I thought. Originally Posted by CuteOldGuy
