Correction: Does Obama have the authority to declare war on a foreign country to kill one person on a list with a strike of any type.

Or does he have the authority to allow a drone or manned craft to be used to aid a foreign countries army and government to get an enemy combatant (who may or may not be American) as that country are not able to do it without the use of American’s air superiority.

One will get a thank you and one will start a war.

Supreme Leaders have the authority that the people give them. So, based on the last election, yes.

The article actually makes some credible arguments. Congress could probably better define and update whom we consider our enemy, and whom we feel morally (as opposed to merely legally) justified in shooting at. Right now the executive appears to be winging it with legislative acquiescence but little serious oversight.

Here’s a better question: Does anyone have the authority to stop Obama from killing Americans?

If so, let him or them prove it.

He certainly thinks so. The real question is: will the person he orders to pull the trigger think he has that authority?

Kill? Yes. Waterboard? No.

I’ve always known that the code pink people were just a proxy movement for socialism. It feels good to be vindicated.

CIA initiate Brennan refused to say how far this authority goes.

Whatever. Bark could murder the latest MOH recipient using a rusty chunk of angle iron and the leftist trash would find some excuse for it.

Of course kings and emperors can kill serfs.
