Getting away from the GM debacle ...... I ran across this while having my 2nd cuppa joe this morning. It's from Charles Krauthammer and makes for some perverse reading:

"Barack Obama: Drone Warrior

By Charles Krauthammer, Published: May 31

A very strange story, that 6,000-word front-page New York Times piece on how, every Tuesday, Barack Obama shuffles “baseball cards” with the pictures and bios of suspected terrorists from around the world and chooses who shall die by drone strike. He even reserves for himself the decision of whether to proceed when the probability of killing family members or bystanders is significant.

The article could have been titled “Barack Obama: Drone Warrior.” Great detail on how Obama personally runs the assassination campaign. On-the-record quotes from the highest officials. This was no leak. This was a White House press release."

The rest of the article is here and well worth your time to read: Barack Obama: Drone Warrior - The Washington Post
