Thanks don't listen Bill O'Reilly and -- Kelly file segment tonight -- general Eric Holder get subpoenaed Amnesty International wants President Bush a rested.

Very compelling question.

Would -- be constitutional for the Obama administration to attack Iranian leaders using predator drone missiles.

Here now attorney and Fox News -- -- -- But it's there's obviously off the alleged terror plot and it just today Hillary Clinton Saber rattling saying -- we are convinced top echelons of the reigning government knew about this.

They paid money to make sure it happened.

When we -- It's it's a political question for President Obama at a military question for him but it's not really much of -- legal question because legally and He can do it.

Okay I'm gonna stop you there so there's no difference between killing.

-- -- Out Milwaukee with the drone.

Okay just today they killed another big terrorist guy in Pakistan withdraw we can drop -- draw home right down Ahmadinejad knows.

Legally.

We can go after Iran we can start a military conflict with Iran President Obama can do that tomorrow wouldn't grownups weekend bulge at the same way I -- yeah.

We didn't -- -- it was a lot it it's a lot more than what you're talking about right now and He NC congressional authority album He showed -- technically under the law but even if He didn't which -- No one's ever gone after president and doing this so legally He could take the mullah Zelnick take up and -- -- -- -- cinema -- and not listen you try to do this on our soil is what happens you the law is technically he's supposed to have an imminent threat against the homeland while I think load up an embassy in Washington is in a minute drought that had been stopped so technically you don't you know and arguably put.

The fact is his -- really -- -- matter.

Because the threat is still -- -- to say they wouldn't do it again if you -- -- -- first time what I did say is -- that the definition of imminent threat is pretty broad -- you can make that argument and -- -- -- make that argument He needs congressional statutory authority which He doesn't have -- president's been blowing that off for forty years -- your opinion if President Obama wanted to He -- -- these -- -- -- -- Eric Holder attorney general received just repeated today tell me about that.

So -- who heads -- the house oversight committee which is control -- the Republicans they controlled house disciplining the attorney general and other top justice of officials and He wants in particular there.

All communications -- Eric Holder and others have had about operation fast and furious.

Internally with the White House it's -- He wants -- all He wanted to be on redacted because so -- everything they've given you know from the government has been heavily redundancy entitled to get back.

I think so yeah I mean He He has and Eric Holder says that He will comply with -- -- -- -- -- -- get every memo -- gonna get all the conversation I didn't say that they're gonna get custody that he's entitled to it.

About would you just said that did you holder says he's gonna complete -- but trust me it's going to be heavily redacted and they're gonna -- makes our assertions of privilege -- other reason I didn't say they don't add that it goes into this never ending legal.

Thing for years to the Supreme Court -- is would you give this would you know.

Then that's what you think's gonna happen you need it well they have to produce enough that there they might produce enough that the true story will come out about who knew what went right comes operation -- appearance in the absence of that.

-- it's gonna have to be a weaker.

Who tells us you know if there's something there that they're not produce right but this is like -- Arizona are saying nothing happened to the Bush Administration.

About waterboarding in the CIA activities in -- but let's that it wanted -- not -- -- a crime it's the cover up this this operation has been in place for years.

The problem for Eric Holder is the Department of Justice has been.

Withholding the full story on this from the beginning.

First they told congress if the operation didn't exist not true and they said DOJ had nothing to do with it.

Not true then they said Eric Holder only learned of air called -- said He only learned about the operation in April or march.

Of 2011.

Well then they produced a document how's that show a -- have yeah but let me finish -- -- -- what ten months earlier.

He'd been receiving briefings or information so then the DOJ came -- told Fox News there's a difference between.

Knowing about an operation and knowing about the controversial aspects of the operations -- it's okay that's the explanation.

No it wasn't.

Eric Holder comes out a statement a couple days after then says.

No I'm sticking to my original statement that I didn't know even about the operation so they can get their -- -- with in the Department of Justice.

So all right this is a very big story now the use of legal ladies you know them and I mean you guys in the senate -- it is it legal later.

-- you they say -- -- is done he's gonna have to resign.

I don't know about that now say you don't I don't know you know that Baghdad now but I and I -- into an obligation to be.

Fully forthcoming about that you probably don't know what for a year until the next election and end the President Obama loves Eric Holder and says He has no -- very strong bond between two men.

Our President Bush going to Canada get a little speech -- and Amnesty International wants them mounties to grab -- Dudley do right with the cuffs on him for what.

Because they say committed war crimes when He authorized in their work torture enhanced interrogation does the same -- stuff yes and they feel that they can beginning of in May be.

Sympathetic to this -- feel that President Obama has been derelict in his duties and not a -- our former president and now they're looking to Canada to step in where the United States would not to arrest.

Our former presidents and go be tried to -- -- the other half an hour -- -- -- -- Bush's hotel and -- the door -- saying between and slim to none has put on vacation this.

That would be war that we got did invade Canada day we -- probably should.

Legitimate Brennan an international war this stuff does not help their cost Amnesty International death.

We've got to understand it's like the ACLU they got there are they want it -- yet they get their hard core far -- people given a money and I got to convince anybody else -- -- just -- four.

Our opinion only did they stand for some legitimate use human rights which are being -- -- -- you know what -- they go to Canada and say when Fidel Castro went -- that they -- -- -- of course the health problem how about are the guy they wanted.
