The first version was that 15 Saudis met in Saudi. Then they went to Dubai and recruited four more Arabs. Then they went to Germany. Then to London. And finally to the US.
Factual, but inconvenient, so dismissed with extreme prejudice.
New version: the 19 hijackers went to Pakistan. They were innocents, and devoutly devoted to the US, but Khalid Sheikh Mohammed corrupted them (this must be true, he confessed under ‘enhanced interrogation’). Also, Osama. From the Pakistan/Afghanistan border, they flew directly into the World Trade Center, the Pentagon, and a field in Pennsylvania.
Do you want facts, or the story the Ministry of Truth tells? Well of course, you want the Ministry of Truth version, they have exclusive rights to the Truth, and it don’t need no stinkin’ facts!

Dana may want to review the “Patriot” and “Military Commissions” Acts. Written, pushed, and passed, by Republicans, with threats of “treason” launched against any Democrat who spoke against those acts.

Drone strikes in Pakistan are the best recruiting device Islam ever had.

NO, it is NOT “justice”, it is revenge.
Why is it that conservatives must live in the past.
It is what makes them conservative..

I trust your version least of all, and our governments version the most.
But, sadly, there is NO 100% trust.

It doesn’t change the fact that under W, no American Citizen was killed/assassinated. The two acts to which you are referencing did not authorize the killing of US Citizens without trial. Even those who are caught killing 25 people get a trial. What O has done is an impeachable offense by violating the 5th Amendment. If W had done this, Congress would have been calling for his resignation. Yet people are eerily silent.

“Dana may want to review the “Patriot” and “Military Commissions” Acts. Written, pushed, and passed, by Republicans, with threats of “treason” launched against any Democrat who spoke against those acts.”
Trout, I’ve believed from the start that the Patriot (sic) Act was wrong. Are you willing to say that Obama is wrong for doing things similar to what others have done using the PA as justification? I doubt it, because the Messiah can do no wrong.
Saying “He hit me first” probably didn’t work when you were a child, and it’s even dumber as an adult. Quit being a hypocrite.

It’s almost a credible argument when the US citizen is a faceless, nameless person. Dana should have provided an actual accused terrorist that is a US citizen for a fair comparison but, that would lead to examining what the person has done…

come on, it’s inflamatory. it doesn’t matter if he was an american citizen or not. he made war against the us from and on foreign soil. constitutional rights apply where the constitution applies, not on foreign soil.
what about the hundreds of thousands of innocents killed by the usa as ‘collateral damage’? they have constitutional rights too?
