alt Hacker NewsObama certainly was for this; he didn't shy away from extrajudicial assassination of an American citizen in a foreign land, executed by our military.
It is both sides. Wyden is a (welcome) aberration (on this topic).

Yep, Obama is a mass murderer just like the rest of them. People tend to not care until the oppression comes home and is in plain view.

What? The guy who was killed was actively committing violence and had done so multiple times before. Continuing to evade capture isn’t a get out of jail free card to keep evading the US and keep making bombs.
The guy got more chances than the average US resident who would get shot by the cops for less

Obama wasn't always pro-surveillance though. He campaigned on ending the NSAs domestic spying program. Only after he was elected did he suddenly praise the NSA publicly and greatly expand their spying powers.
