Seriously? You got your guy in charge of the "kill list"? Unless you've got some inside scoop, I don't thing Castro or Obama are releasing any hards number about how many they've each killed.

Here's one interesting comment, however:

Last week, Pakistan’s interior minister, Rehman Malik, reported that there have been 336 drone attacks on Pakistan over the last eight years, claiming 2,300 victims. Fully 80 percent of those killed, he said, were innocent civilians. Now, I'm sure the Pakis may have an interesting definition of innocent civilians, but it does represent both a troubling number and additional deterioration of relations with a Middle Eastern country.

From a source I suspect you'd fell some affinity for: http://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2012/10/dron-o25.html

That's absolutely nothing compared to the havoc wreaked by yer boy, Dubya, in Iraq. Nearly 175,000 civilians were killed in that clusterf*ck. Morever, when exactly did Pakistani public officials become credible about anything? They've spoken out of both sides of their mouths on the drone strikes since day one.

Hiding Osama Bin Laden comes to mind first.

There you go,again, Finn. You really are becoming a one trick pony: all the worlds problems can be laid at the foot of GW Bush. Dang that's convenient.

You do realize that the civilian causality number you cited is through the first half on 2015, almost 7 years of Obama stewardship.

Nah, that won't matter to you at all. OH, if you've got data contrary to the Paki foreign ministers numbers, I'm sure you'll post it.

I wouldn't let my dog hump that ugly bitch who he had children with.

Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. Mrs Obama is a beautiful lady.
