Has the President Become a Law Unto Himself?

Terror Tuesdays, Kill Lists and Drones: Has the President Become a Law Unto Himself?


Published on Jun 21, 2012 by RutherfordInstitute

With the recent revelation that President Obama has been personally directing military strikes with his so-called "kill list," we are dangerously close to becoming a nation ruled not by laws but by men. Should we fail to recognize and rectify the dangers in allowing a single person to assume the role of judge, jury, and executioner, warns John Whitehead in this week's vodcast, we will plunge into the abyss that is tyranny.

He's always wanted to be the dictator of America instead of president.

I kinda think past administrations did a few of these things too. Except for the drone attacks which weren't available.
