    As for the "drone strikes" back it up!

    As for the unlawful detainment, you're confused. That would be Obama, he asked for it, and a repub, and a dem wrote it up, and Obama then signed it. It's called the National Defense Authorization Act. It's already in effect, and already been deemed unconstitutional by the Supreme Court, and still the White House refuses to submit to the ruling. Look it up.

    Edit: First off, that link is from the UK, I could care less what they think. Second off, Romney wasn't responsible for it, he's not President. He didn't ask for, or sign off on the NDAA. Obama did. How can you blame Romney for Obama's choices? Get a grip.

I grant authority shrink than, which i'm constructive you will overlook approximately approximately. inspite of each little thing, no statute can overide the Constittuion.

    Well, Obama signed NDAA into law, so he does too. What great candidates we have this year! A nobel peace prize winner who has killed countless innocents with cowardly drone strikes all over the globe. And the guy who lost to the guy who lost the election last cycle, who would've lost re-election as mass. governor if he ran again, who still can't make up his mind what he believes policy-wise.

    The war on terror requires these types of activities regardless of Party affiliation.

    That's why we have a President for America.
