So why have I not seen much on this board about Obama ordering the killing of an American citizen without tria?

Well that is an interesting question

A question you should write to the New York Times ( for example ) and ask

Because as much as I disagree and don't care much for Obama, I agree fully with his decision in this respect, and hope he repeats it again...As far as some loser that was born here and has done nothing but treason since, let it be a lesson: treason will get you killed regardless of citizenship. That's nothing new. Treason = death...if you commit it and happen to not be executed or killed, you should consider yourself pretty lucky judging from past history.

F*ck that. He isnt going to hide behind the US flag while simultaneously getting dozens, if not hundreds of people to kill innocent US citizens.

I'm sorry life isnt a perfect little, just utopia where all bad guys get a fair trial. This is reality. It is gritty, it is messy, and it is morally gray. I fully support assassinating this guy even if he is a US citizen.

Why should we treat one terrorist different from another? All men are created equal correct?

People like you believe in this "American Exceptionalism" And it's really just a sick form nationalism, any terrorist scumbag with the plot to kill innocent people should be treated as such scum, not an American

and you have a controversy with this??? Killing Bin weighted down and Al-awkali are between the very few issues Obama has carried out proper. @asker. No it did not. He replaced into struggling with against u.s. with a 17 november.

You Cons will try anything to discredit Obama won't u? al-Awlaki-Shama-lama-ding-dong was a freaking TERRORIST, who was trying to kill Americans abroad. What part of terrorist don't you understand?

Why are you not protesting the fact that Republicans are doing nothing to create new jobs for the unemployed?

Because he is a Democrat so it is OK. If he were a Republican then that would be bad and people would be screaming!

Have you noticed how there are also no more war protests?

but i thought you said Obama had NOTHING to do with killing Osama bin Laden or al-Zawahiri.... now all of a sudden its 100% his call?? GET REAL

Don't know, both sides have those who support the assasination and both sides ave those who oppose it.
