Doyle McManus, columnist for the LA Times, raises an interesting point as to who is in charge of reviewing the US kill list. He notes that it took a court order to listen in on Awlaki's conversations but no such order was needed to kill him. Given that 1300 people have been killed by drone in Pakistan alone, what is the total number worldwide?
The chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee, Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.), has been pressing the administration to explain its rules for months.

I am sure the Founders of this great nation spin in their graves at the notion that a President has the authority to act as Judge, Jury, and Executioner. This is the BS they left Europe to avoid!
