While I DO question the intel behind some drone strikes, and DO NOT like the use of drones over foreign sovereign soil, even to get a dozen or so “bad guys”, and the tragedy of a couple dozen “bystanders”, compare that to the killing of hundreds of thousands of “civilians” with “shock and awe”, and carpet bombing with B-52s and B-2s.
Sometimes the question of “ethics” butts head-on with the reality of “stupidity”.

Need we remind folks that “W” was cutting brush in Texas while “shock and awe” was happening, as he was through most of his TWO tragic and stupidly started, and run, wars? But it was okay, because Rummy assured us that those looters in Baghdad, as we shut down their police force and cooperative military, were just driving by the cameras repeatedly to make Bush “look bad”.
And Rush’s version (along with other RWNJs) of Benghazi had nothing at all to do with the reports coming out at the time, and whether demonstrations that WERE occurring in Egypt and TRIPOLI LIBYA, were actually going on in Benghazi is totally irrelevant. “The truth is out there”, and it isn’t in “x-files”, but isn’t heeded in the bloviating blogosphere that IS RWNJ radio.
