Obama is suddenly interested in limiting the sweeping presidential powers he spent 8 years expanding

It is so impossible to believe that someone would actually care about people being killed that the only fair conclusion is that they are “metaphorically indignant”. It’s just so gosh-darn easy to think that murder is wrong when you aren’t the person who is given the task of choosing whether to murder people or not.

I’m sure they are a quick legal memo away from being used on US soil if the president wanted to. But in general I do think that Americans are safer from drone strikes than the rest of us.
