Uneasy lies the head that wears the crown appears to apply to U.S. President Barack Obama,
a constitutional lawyer coming to grips with government policies that
keep prisoners of war incarcerated without hope of release and executes
U.S. nationals overseas without benefit of trial.
Obama delivered a counter-terrorism address last week at the National Defense University at Fort McNair in Washington, laying out the justification for rolling back those policies now that combat is finished in Iraq and winding down in Afghanistan and at the same time preserving his administration's ability to continue to confront threats.
