I thought Cheney and Bush started that program......

With drones? That they did in 2002. We found out that accidentally. They were bragging about nailing a guy suspected in the Cole attack and blew away an American as collateral damage. Bush claimed that the president had the right, nay the obligation, to kill anyone he/she chose to as long as there was some link, real or imagined, to terrorism.

I didn't like it then and I still don't like it. Targeted killings are bad enough, and probably illegal, but drones make it entirely too easy.
