Dreaming of a superhero
By Maureen Down - NY Times
ON Friday night, the nation’s capital was under a tornado watch. And
that was the best thing that happened to the White House all week.
As the president was being slapped by Mitt Romney for being too weak on
national security, he was being rapped by a Times editorial for being
too aggressive on national security.
A Times article by Jo Becker and Scott Shane revealed that the liberal
law professor who campaigned against torture and the Iraq war now
personally makes the final decisions on the “kill list,” targets for
drone strikes. “A unilateral campaign of death is untenable,” the
editorial asserted.
