But on February 4, 2010, New York Daily News reported that al-Awlaki was “now on a targeting list signed off on by the Obama administration”.[194]
On April 6, The New York Times also reported that President Obama had authorized the targeted killing of al-Awlaki.[18] The CIA and the U.S. military both maintain lists of terrorists linked to al-Qaeda and its affiliates who are approved for capture or killing.[18] Because he is a U.S. citizen, his inclusion on those lists was approved by the National Security Council.[18] U.S. officials said it is extremely rare, if not unprecedented, for an American to be approved for targeted killing.[18] The New York Times reported that international law allows the use of lethal force against people who pose an imminent threat to a country, and U.S. officials said that was the standard used in adding names to the target list.[18] In addition, Congress approved the use of military force against al-Qaeda after 9/11.[18] People on the target list are considered military enemies of the U.S., and therefore not subject to a ban on political assassinations approved by former President Gerald Ford.[195] Al-Awlaki’s tribe wrote, “We warn against cooperating with America to kill Sheikh Anwar al-Awlaki. We will not stand by idly and watchhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anwar_al-Aw…
Is it a slowness to grasp what a death order means or just upset that the Democrat President got another terrorist?

I am writing a letter (knowing this is a HUGE stretch) to the Ellen show asking to be on the 12-day giveaway show.
Here’s the deal. She is a syndicated program. I work for a CBS affiliate station (a news station that is a CBS affiliate), and we happen to carry the Ellen show in the afternoon.
Because I don’t work for her show, or any of the companies that gift to her show, etc. Do you think I would still be okay?
This is of course if hell freezes over, and I actually was granted a shot at being on. I just want to know that I’m not asking for something that is basically against the rules to begin with.
I checked the rules for 12-Days, and can’t find anything that stands out, but before I send my letter, I just thought I’d see what others think. Again, I know my chances are slim to none. But, there’s no point in sending the letter if I wouldn’t be able to attend at all b/c of qualifications.
Thanks!

More bad news for the White House as Rasmussen announced today that just 17 percent of likely US voters believe the country is heading in the right direction, the lowest level of public confidence since Barack Obama took office. According to Rasmussen, a staggering 75 percent of voters now believe the country is heading down the wrong track, including a clear majority (58 percent) of Democrats, and 77 percent of Independents:
Seventy-five percent (75%) of voters say the country is heading down the wrong track, the highest finding since early January 2009. Since that time, voter pessimism had ranged from 57% to 72%.
Most Republicans (91%) and voters not affiliated with either political party (77%) believe the country is heading down the wrong track. Even a strong majority (58%) of Democrats now say the country is heading in the wrong direction.
Forty percent (40%) of black voters say the country is heading in the right direction, a view shared by just 15% of white voters and just as many voters of other ethnicities (15%).
Roughly half (51%) of the Political Class are confident in the nation’s current course, while 84% of Mainstream voters are not.
Hey libs: It’s okay to cry
