That's not a run-of-the-mill drone strike, dude. That's not what we're mad at. We are mad at an incompetent liar, and you should be holding his feet to the fire.

Exactly.  Can you imagine the hysteria if the previous administration called for a drone strike, claimed to have killed the planner of a suicide attack and then the media discovered it was a lie and a civilian family was killed instead.

At some point you just have to let go of what you thought should happen and live in what is happening.
