  4. Female vs. male senators

    As the son of a woman, the husband of a woman and the father of daughters and granddaughters, I celebrate the record number of females who are now United States senators. However, I do see some differences in the way these and other women are treated, depending on their party, policies and beliefs.

  7. A second opinion on drone strikes

    The idea that the federal courts should play some role in deciding whether the government may kill U.S. citizens abroad allied with Al Qaeda has suddenly gained traction in Washington. During confirmation hearings for John Brennan, President Obama's nominee to head the Central Intelligence Agency, Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.), the chair of the Intelligence Committee, said she would be considering legislation to establish a court to "review the conduct" of U.S. drone strikes. Brennan himself, asked by Sen. Angus King (I-Maine) whether a court should scrutinize a decision to target a U.S. citizen for death, said the idea was "certainly worthy of discussion."

  8. Gun ban would protect more than 2,200 firearms

  10. Drone strikes: Who's on the 'kill list'

    Who decides who will be killed by U.S. drone attacks? Protectors of civil liberties have expressed dissatisfaction with the present system of unreviewed presidential discretion, whether in the hands of George W. Bush or Barack Obama.

  11. The law of drones

    President Barack Obama's nominee to head the Central Intelligence Agency, John O. Brennan, was about as cagey as they come last week at his confirmation hearing before the Senate Intelligence Committee. Asked right off the bat by the committee chairwoman, Sen. Dianne Feinstein, whether he would be more forthcoming than his predecessors in apprising committee members of covert U.S. military operations abroad &mdash; particularly the administration's secret drone program of targeted killings &mdash; he vigorously affirmed that to be his intention. Then, for the next 31/2 hours, he politely declined to say virtually anything else of substance on the subject.

  12. Should U.S. citizens in Al Qaeda be tried for treason?

    In my <a href="http://www.latimes.com/news/opinion/commentary/la-oe-mcmanus-drones-20130210,0,6759551.column">Sunday column</a>, I wrote that it&rsquo;s past time for the Obama administration to subject its nomination of suspected terrorists for the &ldquo;kill list&rdquo; -- secret death warrants, to put it bluntly -- to some form of independent review, at least when the targets are U.S. citizens.
