The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

You're missing the point here.
The point is that the Supremes got the ruling right.


You brought up Obama as an example of a prior President who might be affected by the SCOTUS ruling in the specific instance of the al-Awlaki killing. I don't think that's correct. Obama didn't do anything in connection with that killing that could give rise to criminal prosecution in the first instance (at least as far as I can discern, and no one has publicly alleged otherwise), so it's not germane to whether SCOTUS got the ruling right or not.
