    WOW!?!

    I guess Schultz's viewers are OK with dying by drones as long as Obama is in the White House.

    Go low, Baby.

    78% = 77.7777% = 7/9 >>>> Nine viewers, maybe 18.

    It's too bad the leftwads have no shame WRT their naked hypocrisy.

    Best we can do is to continue to stick this up their bum at every opportunity.

    There are only a few areas where progressives want freedom. For virtually everything else, they desire a strong authoritarian Government with centralized power. They only reason they opposed it in the past was because they were afraid conservative Republicans would take over ever several years and use the enhanced power of the Government against them. Now that liberals believe that they will remain in power from here on out (thanks to their efforts to Mexicanize the US), they no longer have that fear.

    Anyone who listens to Ed Shultz is borderline retarded at best, so this isn't too surprising.

    I've always said President Obama is more responsible on the button of a drone than Bush.

    If President Obama should make a mistake with collateral damage of Americans it would be rare, and it should be considered a sacrifice towards the greater good of protecting our country.

    Oops, didn't mean to click the Like button.

    I agree the stats would be 100% against this by Schultz viewers if this was the Bush administration. However I haven't been convinced on the evils of killing terrorists with drones. If there are American's overseas collaborating with terrorists I have a hard time sympathizing with them for getting themselves blown up by our drones.

    It may be a minor point to some but American citizens have the constitutional right to due process before Obama executes them.

    I suppose. If we are at war with the terrorists and these Americans are in a terrorist camp or house, they are pretty much getting what they deserve. All the terrorists need to do is place American terrorist sympathizers in each of their camps and we can no longer go after them.

    Look at the practical side of this.
    Consider the planning and secretive actions necessary to bring down a plane or to suicide the target.. . .Whoever that may be - more likely a political opponent or potential whistle blower than a "terrorist".
    Your 78% have been truly brainwashed by you know who. ZOG%20TeeVee.jpg

    What evidence do you have that his viewers are members of Al Qaeda?

    Where were you in 2002 when Bush was using drones to kill a US citizen?

    Eh, I'd be okay with death by Drone. So much so in several situations that I can think of where a Drone would actually be involved (hostage of sharia nuts, treason, et cetera...), and now a note:

    Dear future Drone pilots,

    Please do, should you find me a target in your cross-hairs, and the ammunition is fired, apply that drone fire liberally and not conservatively. It's in no one's best interest if I get better later. Don't listen to the budget-cut politicians and let them convince you about saving money on ammunitions either. After all, we don't want any of those potential terrorists in the nearby area getting away either do we?

    The OP was the derp.

    Why should Schultz's viewers be afraid of drones. They aren't members of Al Qaeda.

    I don't think the two are mutually exclusive.

    Am I the only non-American disturbed by the fact that so many Americans only seem to make a big think about US citizens being killed by drones?

    Actually, it would seem that most Americans don't care who gets killed by drones, be they Americans or otherwise.

    ??? Why would "Big" Eddie Schultz viewers go nuts over waterboarding? They aren't members of Al Qaeda.

    That lapse in good sense and logic makes your post a fail! Try again sometime, though.

    We have laws against torturing enemies in time of war.

    We don't have laws against killing them.

    "Great" critcal thinking skills!
    The salient point is whether Ed Schultz supporters would support or condemn something based on whether they might
    become victimized by said thing. Schultz viewers (all thirty-six of them) approve of drones and you claim they should because they need not fear drones, personally.

    But Schultz viewers also are vehementely opposed to waterboarding, though they need not fear being waterboarded themselves. Do you see a logical disconnect here? That's what happens when you twist things around to suit a partisan purpose.

    By your own standards, you have screwed the pooch!

    I've never heard of ed schultz, I've probably seen him before and changed the channel after ten seconds of hearing him if he's on msnbs.

    Regarding the 78% of morons who are ok with dying by drone, good, get rid of those idiots. The world can do with less of the weak-minded.
