Drone Programs and putting boots on the ground basically have nothing to do with this topic, but keep flailing away Neo-Con.
Special operations were included in my post. This law is in place so the CIA can interrogate and detain suspects in other countries (mainly al Qaeda and other terrorist networks). As far as calling me a "neo-con," I must be the first neo-con in history to oppose the Iraq war. Keep flailing away about how much you hate Obama and anyone who supports his presidency, wing nut.
Again, some of the smartest people in this country oppose this law Beems, you're just flailing away because you're a closet Neo-Con, and you just can't admit it . . . you're all about dictatorial power in the hands of the executive branch, just as long as the executive branch is controlled by Democrat.
The law itself is an open ended law that allows the executive branch to subjectively brand anyone they choose as a "terrorist" or "enemy combatant", your "just take their word for it" approach to this subject is laughable in its naivette. This administration has chucked a lot of people into 3rd world hell holes like the "Black Hole of Bagram" without charge, but apparently people like you don't mind just as long as a Democrat is doing it.
Sad
