This Century's Tank?

Bob Woodward of Watergate fame was interviewed on '60 Minutes' last night about a forthcoming book. Please take a minute and watch this YouTube clip from the 1:40 mark to about 3:19. What the hell is he talking about? Talk amongst yourselves.

Errr....
Despite the "sinister" spin, the question I have is - And THIS so called capability is a bad thing, because?
Don't we WANT the capability to target the terrorist leadership and take them out?
Even taking the liberal view, this is a LOT better than randomly bombing buildings with civilian casualties isn't it?
This sounds almost like an "infomercial"for a book. He probably heard about a remote drone with weapons capability for the first time and feels smug about knowing the "secret" capabilities of the military. Isn't this what special ops does ALL the time?
