This could be - hell should be - a major campaign issue for Romney. Unfortunately, I'm sure if Romney wins he'll want to keep that power. That's the problem with this kind of creeping executive over-reach - it's only bad when the opposition does it.

I think this issue would play very well with those critical swing independents.

I don't disagree. And maybe Romney is enough of an asshole to fake shock and consternation over Obama's actions now and still order his own drone strikes with a straight face later, but I hope not.

I actually don't think he's enough of an asshole to fake shock and consternation over this.

I researched on this topic and found that the leader of the government regularly sits down with his senior generals, spies and advisers and reviews a list of the people they want him to authorize their agents to kill. yoga instructor training
