Rachel Maddow Links Bush's Torture Program With Obama's Assassination Program


This is normally something I'd share directly on Facebook/Google+, but there's no option to clip the segment without embedding it into a website. Posting it here to share elsewhere.

Here's Rachel Maddow's coverage of NBC news scoop: they've uncovered a white paper detailing what the Obama administration believes is the legal case for assassinating any American, any where, without so much as charging them with a crime. (Sorry for the commercial at the start of the video, I can't cut that out :-/ )
