I have to admit that this had not occurred to me, but Dick Cheney hit the nail on the head in a CNN interview. Cheney said that President Obama owes an apology to the Bush administration for its criticism of handling of suspected terrorists, in light of the action taken just executed on Anwar al-Awlaki. They killed him, an American citizen.
Cheney then goes on to say that he agrees with the agrees with the aggressive actions applied, that they are proper treatment for an enemy with which you at war. I will repeat, he agrees with POTUS ordering the execution.
This discussion shines light the duplicitous set of standards used by the current executive branch. Criticize Bush 43 for treating battlefield captures as prisoners of war then approve the drone attacks on an enemy terrorist. Basically you suck for doing and I'm great for doing it.

What really pleases me is the the ACLU is in a twist over the killing of this rat bastard. They are going to have to prove to the world that the Democrat Executive can ignore frivolous lawsuits as well as the Republican Executive.
I really miss Richard Cheney being our Vice President.
