No, she's not. tritsofme May 2013 #3

So, do you vehemently disagree with the President's statement, or are you just calling him a liar? Dragonfli May 2013 #46

Huh? I support the president, and think this woman is a loony toon. tritsofme May 2013 #54

You disagreed entirely with what he said, is that you supporting him? Dragonfli May 2013 #61

I don't know what's more sickening: Marr May 2013 #29

casual dismissal of targeted assassinations of US citizens by our government is more sickening Dragonfli May 2013 #69

The kid was NOT the one being targeted. Al-Banna was the target and he was not a US citizen. n/t Tx4obama May 2013 #74

He wasn't killed by our drone? I am glad to hear it, I thought we killed a kid! my apologies. Dragonfli May 2013 #77

You are the one that said our government targeted a US Citizen. Al-Banna was the target ... Tx4obama May 2013 #79
