If this terrorist a$$hole would have gotten dead on the other side of an invisible line would that have made it better? You better believe they don't see borders.

Well, there is this thing some people think is important called a "trial". Perhaps you've heard of it.

If I'm the regional leader of a terrorist organization whose goals are to wipe out western civilization? That comes with the job. I'm not so I didn't have a Hellfire turn my 99 Ranger into a smoking hole on my way home from work tonight. And don't worry. Your political masters would never DREAM of abusing these limitless powers you've given them. Patriot Act, assassination, Gitmo... they would NEVER misuse any of these powers. EVER. The government will only violate the civil rights of the "bad guys".
Ft Hood ring a bell? Christmas Day underwear bomber ring a bell? Times Square bomber ring a bell? Iraq ring a bell? Afghanistan ring a bell? Libya ring a bell? Pakistan ring a bell? Yemen ring a bell? Considering the American government has essentially declared war on the entire Muslim world and is absolutely hellbent on stealing all of their natural resources... I'm surprised more of them aren't trying to kill us.
