You missed the point completely.  Obama is not bound by anyone.  He has unilateral power to declare a US citizen a target for assassination.  And even if he did rely on a group of people to advise him, you're really okay with a bunch of Washington bureaucrats determining that a US citizen is a terrorist and therefore a target for assassination?   Maybe that power should be extended to executing murderers?  Why go through the hassle and taxpayer expense of a trial?  The government says he's a murderer, shoot him.....    

What's the difference?
