Blood On Obama's Hands For Drone Strikes Says....Alan Grayson?

by JASmius

Representative Alan Grayson (D-FL9) accused Obama of killing civilians in drone attacks. Is this a fair line of attack? Should the press join Grayson in accusing Obama of having blood on his hands? Hear what Trifecta thinks.

A few thoughts:

***Grayson is too stupid to even possess the mental wattage to contemplate a turn to principled nobility OR ignobility.  He's simply a reflexive hater of America, everything it used to stand for, and everyone who still stands for what it used stand for, and he wears it like a hairlip.  So, naturally, he's going to run over his own mother to be a jihadist propaganda prop.

***What is attention-grabbing is that Grayson is so unsubtle about it that he is willingly to publicly blaspheme False Messiah.  For a White House that is already bunkerized by ObamaCare, to have another front opened on them from their left flank as an effective result of it is an enormously ominous development.

***As to drone strikes themselves, Steven Green nails it at the 9:00 mark.  I would only add that worrywarting over becoming callous as a people to the unintended costs of doing what is necessary to win a war that, if not fought, could potentially result in millions of American civilian dead is pointless.  What should be our concern is that (1) drone strikes are but one tactical instrument in the War on Terror toolbox, but it's not the most effective one.  This is a conflict where intelligence is absolutely imperative, and that means capturing jihadists and doing whatever is necessary to extract information from them that can save American and allied lives, not just blowing them up.  O just sprays hellfire missiles willy-nilly because he doesn't want to fight this war to win - or at all, really - but to be seen as fighting it because he can't afford not to be, especially now; and (2) the elasticity of the White House's definition of "terrorist" and "enemy".  Because we all know that King Hussein sees Republicans and Tea Partiers has bigger "enemies" than Alan Grayson's "guests" will ever be.
