I think Obama wanted to seem above the fray when it came to issues about race. Plus being the first African American President comes with its own unique challenges and expectations.http://www.cato.org/raidmap
That map scares the fuck out of me for all my American friends.

How many other Ricky Ross's did the CIA have all over America? Racism goes way back. When you actually look into what the American Government has done to black folks since the end of slavery you'd think they were on some revenge kick.
I blame a lot of what has gone on lately on Obama, the guy hasn't done a fucking thing to improve race relations in America since he came to office, that should have been his #1 objective. The money that comes from locking up black folks is just too much for even a president to stop I guess.
Freeway Rick Ross is a fascinating guy. I always enjoy interviews with him.http://www.cato.org/raidmap

I'm curious as to why you think that makes him an extremist. While I do fully support your position, firmly believe killing Americans without due process regardless of how "evil" they may be, is against our stated principles of law. Yet I find this program eerily similar to the concept of "indefinite detention" , and while not a fan of slippery slope arguments, we've only continued down the road of moralizing our behavior (got to stop the bad guys), instead of doing what we should be doing.Obama is an extremist. Tired of seeing extremists called anything but what they are. His AG openly advocated for the executive being able to legally kill American citizens without a trial. Argued it that due process and judicial process weren't the same thing so it was legal. That is extreme and dangerous.
Saying you have the ability to unilaterally decide if a citizen lives or dies is as extreme as it gets.I'm curious as to why you think that makes him an extremist.

But from a leadership and policy perspective, an extremist he is not.
I suppose, yet I'm asking specific governing and policy positions. Hardly extreme. Having a secret list and rules for authorizing drone strikes is extreme, but that's hardly the whole puzzle which is what my question was referring to.Saying you have the ability to unilaterally decide if a citizen lives or dies is as extreme as it gets.

That was great, sad people are like that but nonetheless a humorous skit.
maybe they believed that cultures were best separated by an ocean.Just shows you how dumb those types are. You'd think they would be more likely to extort than to just deny service.
Why did they just refuse service anyhow? Thought business was to make money.
