Comparing the torture of captured prisoners to eliminating bad guys on the battle field is a non-starter. Also, there are many reports that the intel used to get OBL was not from waterboarding with most saying it was quite the opposite.

Again, the 16-year old kid was not a target...he was in the wrong place at the right time. There is no evidence to support any other conclusion.

And again, I am all for changes to the current drone program...and I would prefer that the administration release the authorization memo for this to the Congressional committees that have oversight here.

My issues with Bush were hardly ever with the way he ran the daily details of the war so I'm not really altering any positions here. Not to mention, Obama's words in 2007 were mainly that we would stop torture, and bring our troops home and that is clearly happening. Yes, I wish it were happening faster.
