Default Obama Brags About "Being Good at Killing People"

This will not go over well for the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize winner.
According to the new book “Double Down,” in which journalists Mark Halperin and John Heilemann chronicle the 2012 presidential election, President Barack Obama told his aides that he’s “really good at killing people” while discussing drone strikes.

I have no problem with drone strikes but that comment is kind of in poor taste. If President Bush would have made a comment like that there would have probably been a big uproar.

'Furthermore, the disturbing trend of the “double tap” — bombing the same place in quick succession and often hitting first responders — has become common practice.

Needless to say, a lot of innocent people have been killed along with combatants.'

the italics on 'combatants' is mine. because i know how this govt. decides who is a combatant.

we have reached a horrible low.
