    What we've always done. Make a case, take them through the due process of a trial, and make government make their case. Or did you forget that part?

    Then let’s just agree to disagree. The person killed himself. I guess you don’t believe in self accountability.

    Because republicans oppose killing terrorists?
    Either way. She didn’t work for Obama. Why did you make that up?

    No, the quote IS NOT there. At no point does Wallace call for drone strikes in the US as you keep falsely claiming. At this point, you’ve been contradicted by your own post, and by just about everyone on this thread who was smart enough to look past your false headline.

    Is that really the best you can do? She said the words. There is video. Peddle harder.

    ""We had a policy, and it was very controversial, it was carried out under the Bush years and under the Obama years, attacking terrorism at its root, of going after and killing, in the case of Anwar al-Awlaki, an American, with a drone strike, for the crime of inciting violence," Wallace went on to suggest."

    And in context of the conversation, it was about how to deal with inciting violence. This is her answer. The narrative is that you seem, now, to be defending ms Wallace's advocacy. Why is that?

    She did not call for drone strikes against US citizens in the US.

    Your headline and your claim is false. It is NOT in the video. Your claim is false.

    Period. You don’t get away with lies just by being obtuse.

    That doesn’t work for Trump, either, although it’s one of his default strategies.

    The headline was from the citation, not mine. The analysis is shared both by the author of the article, as presented in my thread. I agree with the premise of the analysis, and have provided the necessary quote from ms Wallace that indicates her willingness to use drone strikes in the US to deal with domestic terror. All the dots are adequately connected. As it certainly highlights the despicableness of the current democratic party narrative, one hopes you find it offensive to advocate for such. Are you in agreement then that the current administration shouldnt do as ms Wallace advocated? or, Are you willing to flatly write your abhorrence for this contention of hers?

    JFC. She did NOT say she supported that. Its embarrassing for you to title your thread such, and then post a video that doesn't say that.

    She literally pointed out what happened under Obama, and then asks how Mitch squares his position of supporting it under Obama, yet not even supporting a trial in the senate when Trump is accused of the same crime.

    The title of the thread has to be the title of the source article. If you find the title embarrassing, address the citation. And now that you're here the context of the discussion was the use of drone strikes against domestic terrorists, of which, as you point out, she labels the former president. How F'in stupid is that? If you want to quibble, is she asking why Mitch doesn't support using a drone strike to take out Miralago? She sounds pretty crazed. I suppose it's the company she keeps at the MSNBC.

    This is her quote: ""We had a policy, and it was very controversial, it was carried out under the Bush years and under the Obama years, attacking terrorism at its root, of going after and killing, in the case of Anwar al-Awlaki, an American, with a drone strike, for the crime of inciting violence," Wallace went on to suggest."

    Based upon responses from the poster, I suspect they are late for their 10th grade language arts class.

    For the most part, Americans are not very sophisticated in their thought processes. All the talk about "terrorists" for the last 20 years have the masses believing that the only terrorists in the world are muslims and people with dark skin.

    The huddled MSM masses in the US are not sophisticated or aware enough to realize they/we have been terrorized for a year by a virus.

    Truth is stranger than fiction. :lol:

    oh FFS. You completely leave out the context of the entire panel. The IMPEACHMENT of Donald Trump. She is saying that Mitch support drone killing people for inciting violence, but that they now don't even support impeachment for the same offense.

    Why do you have to make things something they are not to make your point ? Is it because you have no point, and are just playing politics ?

    yep, it wasn't so much Trump saying they committed treason, it was this after saying that

    "and said the U.S. should "handle" them like it did "in the old days""

    ""You know what we used to do in the old days when we were smart? Right? The spies and treason, we used to handle it a little differently than we do now.""

    Anything close to that would be the first strike in a civil war.

    Well, here he go with the left's inability to condone violence depending on which side of the partisan divide it falls.

    So many people lacking any ounce of character.
