    Essentially what you are saying then is that you agreed with everything that Bush did in his 8 years to go after terrorists.

    But again - what made this legal was it was under the CIA - not in military control.

    Ahh, the Socratic wonder that is YankeeFan. Behold his endless questions and concerns. When proven wrong about the only thing he ever posts about, hey, look over here, this situation is EXACTLY THE SAME! ONLY DIFFERENT!

    The schtick is old.

    And, Boom? You left out "necessary and appropriate," again. But it's OK. That's how you do.

    This tacit admission will do just fine.

    You've been proven wrong. You claimed it was legal because it was a military operation. It was not. It was a CIA operation allowed under Bush directive.

    As usual whether in your previous handle or as McGwire you continue to be full of fail.

    So, as usual, you won't answer a simple question.

    It's really so sad. It's really quite easy: what did you think of the Israel/Dubai operation?

    Now, you might not see a correlation. OK, fine. So what? Why are you unable to just answer the question?

    Guys, it's been fun. I am sure the key to future GOP political success lies in convincing the world the killing of Osama bin Laden was illegal. So keep going with that. Really.

    Aw, I was hoping for an anti-Mossad screed and an impassioned post about how much better and moral we are than Israel.

    Where have I said that? It appears that it was legal. Made so under a Bush directive.

    Given how events went down, I think it's worth asking, "What did Eric Holder know, and when did he know it?"
