The core joke of Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy is that of course no civilization would develop personal computers with instant remote database recovery, and then waste this technology to find good drinks.

Re: United States of Candyass

It strikes me that the whole crux of the debate here, is, that the Founders intended war to be an all out emergency the President would solve quickly with as little internal haggling possible.  He gets to wield the sword in the saddle, and then, back to normal.

And what these critics of drone strikes on citizens resolve, among themselves, is that the War on Terror is a permanent condition From Now On.  I mean if it ends the war sooner to bomb the hell out of AQ, who'd be against it?  But they imagine it won't be over sooner, so, the problem is how it operates forever.   They've never killed a citizen with drone strikes who wasn't guilty as hell.  But they figure over the next twenty years it will probably happen. 

The Constitution, as written, doesn't give a damn.  Enemy are enemy and have no due process rights in American courts.  Instead of trying to "solve" that and create another, feckless, wasteful, permanent, crisis-management bureaucracy, let's just win the war.  And end it.

Re: United States of Candyass

Scarborough used to be a Republican, so his saying Republicans suck is a refreshing break
