And no, I'm not a troll. But everyone seems to have jumped on the bandwagon and conveniently forgotten that this is exactly the kind of behavior that so many of us voted against in 2008. And if you don't believe me, read some other folks who think that there are other ways of conducting ourselves that don't include the president acting as judge, jury and executioner.
Bush did it throughout his presidency, and even delegated this kind of stuff to Cheney. Why are we accepting the same barbaric behavior now? Because Obama is a Democrat and a progressive? This certainly doesn't reinforce his progressive agenda; it shows that he is just the same as the Republicans.
