Just a reminder...Obama is not officially a dictator. "Oh, but he has such a winning smile!"

A pair of lawyers for the Obama administration said the president has
sole discretion to define who is an enemy and that U.S. citizens with
that designation are legitimate military targets.
Government lawyers, CIA counsel Stephen Preston and Pentagon counsel Jeh Johnson, were asked at a national security press conference about the CIA killing of Anwar al-Awlaki, a U.S. citizen who was also a member of al-Qaida.
Following al-Awlaki’s killing by a drone aircraft; the administration has faced criticism from both the left and right. Critics have said it is one thing to die in a firefight with troops, but the aerial attack amounted to a targeted assassination.
