Carney: Drone strikes are 'fully consistent' with the Constitution
"How can this man stand there with a straight face and say this? Never mind. Let me see if I got this right. When terrorists were water boarded, the libtards were calling for Bush's head, saying he should be brought up on War Crimes. Hussein, uses a drone to kill terrorists, including an innocent 16 yr. old boy, but that's OK. And according to Carney the Clown, constitutional. Notice the Libtard's are full of silence.They believe in nothing. If this was Bush then it would be war ciminal all week long with marches. Now, silence. The hypocrisy and unrestrained arrogance of
this administration, the MSM, and the Democrap Party is unbelievable. Carney the Clown is alluding to The U.S. Constitution, really??? As if he or Hussein don't regard that document with total disdain.Carney is The Big Zero's ass kisser. He says what he has been told to say. Once he's done that he crawls back under Hussein's desk and waits for his next assignment. So Hussein is going after those he believes are enemies of the U.S. Watch out conservatives, watch out Teabaggers, watch out Fox News. When will it be ethical and legal for drone strikes to kill people in the United States? This Dicktator in Chief has been pissing on the constitution since day one. There is no law big enough that this POS will not break.Yet they remain in office. Wonderful." MC
The White House on Tuesday defended the guidelines for targeting Americans in drone strikes as "fully consistent” with the Constitution.
Speaking to reporters on Tuesday, White House spokesman Jay Carney said it is President Obama’s responsibility to protect U.S. citizens “first and foremost.”
But Carney said strikes against Americans overseas are sometimes "necessary to mitigate ongoing attacks." The operations are "fully consistent with our Constitution," he said.
"[The strikes] are legal, they are ethical and they are wise."
The statements from Carney come the day after the leak of a white paper from the Department of Justice (DOJ) that outlines the legal basis for killing Americans overseas who are believed to be a threat. In the memo, Justice outlines a three-part test to determine whether a “lethal operation” can be carried out against an American who is a senior operational leader of a terrorist group.
The drone strikes against U.S. citizens have drawn fierce opposition from civil-liberties groups, who argue due process is being trampled in the name of national security.
