Obama Kills Children

http://politix.topix.com/homepage/3897-is-it-... "176 children have been killed in Pakistan by US drones since Obama took the oath of office. Are those deaths in any way comparable to the ones at Sandy Hook? That's the question asked by Reason's Brian Doherty. Sandy Hook and drone strikes share one similarity: mechanized killings. The differences, Doherty concedes, are important: one is fighting against terrorists targeting Americans. The other was just an exercise in horror. But in the minds of anti-drone activists, Doherty writes, the death of children by drone strike is so tragic and unnecessary, it makes the deaths comparable to a gratuitous mass murder." Kill one child - you're a murderer. Kill ten children - you're a mass murderer. Kill 176 children and you are the Democratic President of the United States! Go Obama!

Why can't the majority of Americans see that there is something seriously wrong with our Leaders?

When are you fanatical republicans gonna stop spinning the truth? It didn't work in the election. It doesn't work now. Repubs are a bunch of losers that don't give a damn about their own country.

If it was still The Chimp in the White House you'd be saying he was showing extraordinary leadership as a "Wartime President". You are a hypocritical coward.

" There were thousands of women and children killed in the Iraq debacle, and not a peep out of the Right about it. Drones cause way less collateral damage than invasions, civil wars, and endless occupations.

Thus the dilemma of the Republicans: selective morality is required because it's all right when they do it. The chimp killed more women and children with his harebrained polices than Obama could if he tried. They are authoiritarian conformists when they control the executive, but selective pacifists when not. They must kowtow to nutjobs like Ted Nugent and their base as exemplified by the scumbag Jerry.

So your argument comes to "Since Bush killed some kids during Iraq, it's just fine with me that Obama kills kids with drones?" Sucks to be a child under your care.

Democrats curse Bush for his actions and praise Obama for the same actions. Hmmm. I guess it's alright when they do it. I wonder when Obama is going to get around to closing down GITMO like he promised as one of his first term "immediate" actions? I guess building them a $750,000 soccer field is kinda the same. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/03/01/guan...

"Time Magazine's Joe Klein, a stalwart Obama supporter, offered one of the most nakedly sociopathic defenses yet heard of these killings. This exchange, which begins at roughly the 7:00 minute mark on the video embedded below, is quite revealing in several respects." . . http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2012-05-04/pane... “The United States was attacked on 9/11, and we know who attacked us.” (Bloomberg)-- U.S. Defense Secretary Leon Panetta talks about U.S. foreign policy, conditions in Afghanistan and the defense budget. He speaks on Bloomberg Television's "Conversations with Judy Woodruff." (Source: Bloomberg) . . “We know that al-Qaeda was behind it,” Panetta said.“And we are going to do everything we can, use whatever operations we have to, in order to make sure that we protect this country and make sure that that kind of attack never happens again.” “The United States is going to defend itself under any circumstances.” Drone attacks against sanctuaries of the Taliban and other militant groups in Pakistan are carried out by the Central Intelligence Agency, which Panetta previously headed. Pakistani officials have opposed the strikes, saying they violate their nation’s sovereignty and have killed civilians." . . http://www.cnn.com/2012/09/25/world/asia/paki... Drone strikes kill, maim and traumatize too many civilians, U.S. study says "The study by Stanford Law School and New York University's School of Law calls for a re-evaluation of the practice, saying the number of "high-level" targets killed as a percentage of total casualties is extremely low -- about 2%. The report accuses Washington of misrepresenting drone strikes as "a surgically precise and effective tool that makes the U.S. safer," saying that in reality, "there is significant evidence that U.S. drone strikes have injured and killed civilians." It also casts doubts on Washington's claims that drone strikes produce zero to few civilian casualties and alleges that the United States makes "efforts to shield the drone program from democratic accountability." . (Obamas Security Adviser) Brennan: "We only authorize a strike if we have a high degree of confidence that innocent civilians will not be injured or killed, except in the rarest of circumstances," he said. Despite the "extraordinary precautions" taken by the United States, Brennan said, civilians "have been accidentally injured, or worse, killed in these strikes." Heil Obama
