<p class="indent">"In interviews with The New York Times, three
dozen of his current and former advisers described Mr. Obama's
evolution since taking on the role, without precedent in
presidential history, of personally overseeing the shadow war with
Al Qaeda. They describe a paradoxical leader who shunned the
legislative deal-making required to close the detention facility
at Guantánamo Bay in Cuba, but approves lethal action without
hand-wringing. While he was adamant about narrowing the fight and
improving relations with the Muslim world, he has followed the
metastasizing enemy into new and dangerous lands. When he applies
his lawyering skills to counterterrorism, it is usually to enable,
not constrain, his ferocious campaign against Al Qaeda -<font

comes to killing an American cleric in Yemen, a decision that
Mr. Obama told colleagues was "an easy one."<font

<p class="indent"><font color="#ff0000"><font color="#000000">I
opposed Democrat Lyndon Johnson and the Vietnam War. I oppose
Democrat Barack Obama and the Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, and
Iran Wars. When you have a constitutional law professor
saying that it is "an easy one" to kill a fellow U.S. citizen
without what passes now days for "due process," don't expect
me to go along with it. I find it disgusting that more people
in this country don't have the guts to put a stop to this at
the ballot box. As a country, we will never learn, when a
former SDS'er is an apologist for a President who says the
decision to kill a fellow human being and fellow American
citizen is easy. Chuck Kovis<br>
