President Barack Obama and former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney may not agree on much, but they're both totally into the use of unmanned aircraft known as drones to hunt down and kill real and imagined threats to the American way of life. Whenever you've got top Democrats and top Republicans getting along, you know something has gone horribly wrong. Here are three reasons why drone strikes are really freaking scary. 1. They're not that accurate. One of the main selling points of drone strikes is their supposedly surgical precision. Rather than carpet-bombing entire city blocks to nail one or two bad guys, now we can just zap them without harming anyone else. But a new study from researchers at NYU and Stanford concludes that as many 881 civilians - including 176 children - have been killed by US drone strikes in northern Pakistan since 2004. Worse still are reports that targets get blasted repeatedly, to ward off rescuers from helping the wounded. 2. There's no legal framework. Drone strikes have been carried out in countries with whom we're allies or against whom we've yet to declare war. They are the principal way in which President Obama's infamous "kill list" is made operational and yet nobody knows how such decisions are being made. As The New York Times said earlier this year, "a unilateral campaign of death is untenable." Not only is such a campaign immoral on its face, it only damages America's standing in the world. 3.

160+ Fox News Bias videos at bit.ly When Republican presidential candidate Michele Bachmann argued that the ACLU runs the CIA under President Obama based on misinformation about torture, waterboarding, and the so-called "war on terror," I was glad to see her claims vigorously challenged the next day by journalist David Gregory on NBC, but not surprised to see her get only softball questioning a day later from supposedly straight news anchor Martha MacCallum on Fox News, as I show in this video. The clips I use of Congresswoman Michele Bachmann's debate answer come from CBS' November 12, 2011, broadcast "Republican Debate" available online at bit.ly The clips I use of David Gregory interviewing Michele Bachmann come from NBC's November 13, 2011, broadcast of "Meet The Press" available online at on.msnbc.com The clips I use of Martha MacCallum's interviewing Michele Bachmann come from Fox News' November 14, 2011, broadcast of "America's Newsroom" a longer clip of which is available online at bit.ly The clip I use of President Barack Obama's November 13, 2011, APEC press conference in Hawaii comes from the public domain video at bit.ly The image I use of the ACLU blog post titled "ACLU: If We Ran the CIA" comes from bit.ly The image I use of of my December 2008 video titled "Hiroshima: Right or Wrong?" comes from the YouTube video player page at bit.ly The image I use of my May 2011 video titled "Dick Cheney Lies About Torture Working" comes from the YouTube video player <b>...</b> Author: LiberalViewer Duration: 8:00

OVER 100MORE examples of Fox News Bias at www.youtube.com Republicans took to the airwaves last week spreading this false talking point that a recent speech by President Obama in which he said that the nation is at war is a big rhetorical change for Obama. When Republican former Bush chief of staff Andrew Card tried this fake GOP talking point on real news network MSNBC, an actual straight news anchor, Norah O'Donnell, made sure MSNBC viewers heard the truth, but, meanwhile, the supposed straight news anchor over on Fox News, Jon Scott, hosted one of those unfair Fox News 3-Ways with Matt Schlapp and Susan Estrich on this topic that same day which just seemed designed to emphasize the false Republican talking point, as I show in this video. The short clip from President Barack Obama's (first) inaugural address I use in this video comes from the public domain video available from the whitehouse YouTube channel at www.youtube.com The short clip of MSNBC anchor Norah O'Donnell interviewing Andrew Card I use in this video comes from a segment on the MSNBC program "MSNBC News Live" that aired January 8, 2010, available on the MSNBC website at www.msnbc.msn.com The short clips I use of the debate between Susan Estrich and Matt Schlapp hosted by Fox News anchor Jon Scott come from a segment on the Fox News program "Happening Now" that aired January 8, 2010 (which I have not been able to find online) The image of the Washington Times editorial titled "Obama discovers the war on <b>...</b> Author: LiberalViewer Duration: 6:30
