Murder by Presidential Decree.

The arbitrary killing by a remote controlled drone of a US citizen has set a new standard in how low our government has sunk. They are relying on the blind faith and support of a population so clueless, misinformed, misled and lied to, as regards terrorism. The shock and awe of 9/11 was the psychological hammer blow that destroyed our democracy in two hours on a sunny New York late summer morning, just over 10 years ago. This was the exact intention.. to soften up a population in order to easily push through an otherwise unsellable, extremist agenda.

Elements within our government can now, if they so desire, "inform" us that anyone they don't like, or disapprove of, whose opinions are out of line with the powers-that-be, or is a thorn in the side of authority, is a "terrorist", and thus can be terminated, by that same authority, at a time of their choosing. No evidence or proof is required, no verifiable chain of custody is required, and no trial is offered.

How many people have been murdered by executive order without a trial to determine their guilt or innocence? We don't know... we have no idea. The crew responsible are secretive beyond all bounds of paranoia, and the corporate "weasel" media is complicit in its Goebbels like appeasement.

Would you ever trust an executive branch that was so psychotic that such extreme methods were now the norm? BushCorp dumped Habeas Corpus, and now ObamaCorp has dumped the requirement for a trial, even a kangaroo military tribunal.

Does this sound like America? No. Does it sound like the old USSR, or Nazi Germany, or Myanmar, or Iran on steroids? Undoubtedly yes... on an increasing number of counts. How did we fall so far, in such a short time?
