Or you could, you know, try to deal with disagreements without resorting to blowing people and shit up?
Both predator drones and putting boots on the ground do nothing but keep an endless vicious cycle going by breeding more anger in places where it did not exist before.
These attacks have more than likely created more terrorists, if anything.

I guess the problem is this: you could send 100,000 US troops and look for the person of you could just use a drone to kill the enemy or our country. I guess it is much more easy for the public to accept the second option and it is a lot cheaper. 65 million people were killed during world war 2. In the big picture killing a few thousand by drone to prevent bigger wars is probably the better solution.

Ha, I was only kidding. I completely agree with you. However, [Spoiler Alert] that very concept, as well as drones are pretty integral to the show, so I figured I'd let it rip.

I just watched a little Doomsday Preppers for the first time. These people are not well. They should be locked away in padded cells and should not be living among us.

No. It was nothing like that. Not surprising, however.

Politics bore me right now. The election is over. Obama is at least trying to raise the minimum wage. The republicans are a complete disaster. They block the domestic abuse bill, they try to block raising the federal workers pay by half a percentage. I am sure they will block raising the minimum wage. They should just go away and another alternative party should come and replace them.
Raising the minimum wage will cost jobs for those that Bammy is pretending to try to help.

and then you wonder why we can't take anything you say seriously.
bush: started a WAR because it would please his daddy (explain that to the families of the thousands of soldiers that have died in iraq). illegal wiretaps = PROVEN erosion of constitutional rights (for the under-informed right-wingnuts, it's the right against unreasonable search and seizure).
obama: ensure that you have healthcare and *might* do something about automatic weapons, at some point.
yeah, really valid comparison. you keep your beliefs, RB, the liberals will keep running the country. enjoy :-*
Spoken like a true liberal, all spin no fact.
