How is it that these topics aren't dominating political discussion in this country?

That's an excellent question. I was very upset when I heard Secretary of Defense Panetta say that. I was sure Americans would be up in arms the talk shows would be discussing it but no....just silence

Target and assassinate American citizens on US soil without a trial. Eric Holder (Head of Justice Dept.) claimed that authority How about that country men Upset yet?

Ron Paul is the only one addressing concerns like this. He knows and understand how our liberty is in danger. Mitt Romney and Rick Santorum are a joke. It turns my stomach to hear their rants but nothing about the real threats to America. They both pretend to be religious but their God is money

the people of this country have a regime that is backasswards,upside down, ,issues strung in 10 different directions like a 3 stooges 97 floor skyscraper,,what dominate peoples concerns ,if polls other than the dozen democrat outfits are considered valid,60-65 % think jobs spending are at the top,,

if you noticeda few weeks back,yahoo listed 10 boxes to check in the politics sec,was at the right,

someting like, foreign policy

the economy

obamacare

energy

education

infrastructure improvement

immigration

terrorism

taxes

maybe 2 others,,the box at the bottom said

'CHECK ONLY ONE'

a lot of people in the country share your concerns,,not the pressmutts evidently,who do not respond

to 'the people',only other pressmutts

look up a congress hearing with eric holder,regarding presidential prerogatives in making appointments when congress is out of session,it's on townhall,com, ,lamar alexander was the chair,

holder babbled,,,,the rest of the press didn't bother with it

it's called bias,,framing the narrative,the lib press ignores this daffy administrations daffiness

The Eric holder issue you mention has been scrutinized since Al-Awaki was blown up and this question was put to the test. I agree with your concern and i also understand the majority opinion that execution without trial for an act of treason is acceptable.

Because you're lying about what he said. Not that this has ever stopped the right wing media.
