Murder Most Foul; POTUS Edition

(The story so far)

If you have been reading the last few entries, then you know of the Obama Administration's Kill Memo. You know that the Administration has declared that it has the right to kill anyone, anytime, anywhere, who they claim is a "senior operational leader" of al Qaeda, or who is associated with them, whenever a "senior official" (apparently the President, but for all we know, it could be the senior custodian of the residence) deems that it is necessary to kill that person.

Which begs the question: Why did the President order the killing of a sixteen-year-old boy? What "imminent threat" did that child pose? How high up the al Qaeda chain-of-command was a sixteen year old kid?

How is this murder of a child not a modern version of a bill of attainder, something that is prohibited by Article I, Section 9, Clause 3 of the Constitution? Killing children because of the offenses of a parent was a hallmark of the Stalinist Terror. Is that how Obama wants history to remember him, as the man who ordered the murder of a child because the child's father was allegedly a terrorist?

It is getting to the point that the only difference, now, between President Obama and his predecessors, the main actors in the "Darth and Chimpy Show", is little more than the tone of their respective complexions. True, Cheney came into office as a fully-formed murderous thug whose sole operating principle was "might makes right". On the other hand, it took ol' Barry about two or so years to shed whatever degree of morality he had when he came into the job.

For as it seems, now, Barack Obama is just another murderous war criminal.* Maybe, some day, Lord willing, he'll get to sit at the defendant's table in the Hague, right next to George W. Bush and Richard Cheney.

Nope, not the first war criminal with a Nobel Peace Prize.

They gave one to Kissinger, too.
