REPORT: Obama Was 'Obsessed' With Killing The American Al Qaeda Terrorist Al-Awlaki

Little details are leaking out from the from the new book "Kill or Capture: The War on Terror and the Soul of the Obama Presidency" by journalist Daniel Klaidman.
Earlier this week we heard about the president's "kill list" which State Department lawyer Harold Koh handled "like baseball cards"
But now the Daily Beast has captured  some more details including this one:
One terrorist Obama was reportedly particularly set on seeing killed or captured was Anwar al-Awlaki, an American citizen and radical cleric who was killed by a drone in Yemen last September. Al-Awlaki obsessed Obama after the success of the attack on bin Laden, Klaidman reports, telling advisers at a weekly counterterrorism meeting, “I want Awlaki. Don’t let up on him.” According to sources, the president even considered allowing for some collateral damage if it meant taking out Awlaki, asking that advisers keep him apprised of any opportunity to eliminate the cleric.

This certainly doesn't fit into the popular conservative image of a president that is diffident when it comes to the war on terror.  Instead, it seems to confirm the fears of liberals that Obama is expanding the legal authorities of the president during an unending war.

A president who gives a shit?  And you're upset?

I should HOPE my President, from either party, is up at night concerned about how to kill the top bad guys in the world.  I want him to worry about this shit.  I want him to say things like "I want this motherfvcker!"

The last thing I wanna hear from a president is "Honestly, I don't really worry about it, it's not that big a deal, I don't think about it"...

This is one of those issues where repubs should just remain quiet.  THere's no legit criticism they can use without soundling like idiots.

"I'm mad my president is remaining vigilant at killing America's enemies".          REALLY?

youre cool with obama but still mad at cindy sheehan.

seriously, and you wonder why people call the repubs the party of fcking whiny victims?   Sheehan plays the whiny victim - and you're whining about her.

When are repubs going to stop whining.  Please, give a day when they stop crying like boehnner or being appauled, offended, wronged, or otherwise victimized.

Of course not - leftists like yourself only did so when Bush did it, now cheer on Obama for it. 

Same for everything else.   That is why you obama drones are so fucking pathetic, hypocritical, and delusional.
