-- and it's I will counterterrorism advisor John Brennan become the head of the CIA.

He just -- -- on Capitol Hill with some liberals don't like them.

Because he is the director of the drone program that kills terrorists from the sky as Obama very bullish on the drones.

These strikes were legal.

They're ethical and a wise.

The US government takes great care -- deciding to pursue an al-Qaeda terrorist to ensure precision.

And to avoid loss of innocent life.

And I discuss his moral dilemma over the drone issue the coast of five Bob Beckel.

All right so.

First of all.

Would you make brand in the head of the CIA.

Not of that policy -- -- that policy was changed I would hole and but he is the architect of the -- well that's that that's a good reason and the not -- you wouldn't vote for him no I wouldn't -- for -- that policy -- -- -- -- talked about going after American citizens -- yes -- associated with terrorist -- -- understand that but they have no evidence that they're doing anything about an imminent threat to the United States I think what -- several.

Well the president says he has evidence and doesn't met.

Order -- in and -- he's convinced by Brennan and others that these are bad -- this policy said it did United States government does not.

Underscored not have to have.

Operational intelligence that this person was involved in or pending talk caught ages I don't there was Carney said I know what the private -- speaking for the president -- fine.

I think he's speaking rather I want I read the memo the memo reads Jacqui given they -- to say no drop -- Gives that I told -- audience your interpretation in the memo the memo says that.

The federal government.

Can -- but use drones to attack people would terrorist organizations including American citizens who were involved that terror organization.

However and then this is an important point they underscore however if you do not have to have operational intelligence.

That this person is involved in -- or planning an attack on the United States and attack on the united say yes but or any you have probably could be helping -- -- or something like that.

Obviously he's helping babies not that's not the -- he's you know like this program I -- -- -- -- -- its constitutionally -- OPEC constitutionally correct -- all right now.

Com.

Number waterboarding.

And you don't like that did not not you really -- right.

I thought it was a terrible I didn't -- which is worse drone.

Strikes award losses what more does kill people directly exposed -- -- the drones are probably -- I take -- people look at waterboarding is is is about is tortured this of.

First so you know your opinion because you die with it draws a you don't dilute the water boarded -- -- wars.

Now really the outcry about waterboarding fear you know everybody jumping up and down there NBC news I thought they were gonna like meltdown only there and integrity -- on NBC about the terms.

Yeah now I don't.

Yeah okay all right John that's beyond and look at NBC and viewing but it got a kick out of -- -- GG UN may have -- -- -- do me a little guys you picked up for not doing -- -- but I.

I don't care what where whores in my not publish if I can continue our chat here -- the -- so you haven't heard anything over there about there's no neither -- I don't want out of my staff.

OK don't usually they're women aren't things but we heard a lot about what what.

But nothing about restaurants.

-- process that.

I have no interest to process -- -- -- -- she doesn't you know you're an intellectual guy election curiosity have you a lot of children that tell you why when.

Most guys a lot of running and they don't care about drugs there are people I have no idea I don't have yet to weapon at that nobody machine that's just an audience I think.

-- Beckel just an opinion.

And I'm glad that you might get an -- that they probably should everybody should -- -- -- -- aren't that I don't you don't know beyond and I had no idea all night.

I want why is it protecting the president I see the -- president of fine that's your dad's white and it's what you think and that's what I -- that's what.

I don't -- he'll get a look at that do you care that some of the democratic senators.

Who are very outspoken against -- -- Nelson and veterans don't care about that sure I do I think it was -- should forget about -- yes so what OK so why aren't they speaking out I have no idea you don't like.

Yes you don't know how said that all right here's the problem what you that you started out as long question that I -- that everybody's -- do you have you.

Then if they're not doing my -- them as they should do it okay but you don't know why they're not doing it.

You don't you're no I don't know why they Cheerios in the morning either you can probably guess he -- -- I can tell you -- they -- they taste good -- -- -- get a letter.

Can't stand the -- okay so.

Intellectual curiosity doesn't bring you to analyze why hey these democratic -- your party don't say much about -- will right now my middle.

My future -- is trying to figure out why you're going down this line question but leaving that aside I will tell you this I think this.

Anybody who reads that -- yes and believes in the constitution that states cannot make a pitch make this square and that doesn't work.

It just doesn't work really the -- the United States is doing something and constitute I believe it -- should be impeached -- I don't know no doubt about it and I got to -- listen he is the is this what mom beforehand.

And it's probably is gonna go on afterwards to -- so enjoyable yeah.

And if -- don't.

Nothing short we're too what are that was torture gets you you -- because if I would not have no no I did teach you don't somebody wouldn't somebody you guys what are club that they -- -- that look.

So what -- -- -- what should happen if President Obama if you'll write and he is doing something unconstitutional murdering people without the right I think I think that threatens nomination should be held up until that.

Sentence is removed from their policy.

That's all nothing else no waterboarding the president I don't know what normal we're going out forever never did any good.

Bob Beckel everybody very intellectually curious about a -- -- he's on.
