I don't bet. Not all hearings are alike. Some are real, but it's more
likely to be either a closed hearing or a kabuki hearing.  It's quite
likely that what will come out of any hearings and legislation is that
drone-based assassinations will be subject to review (or preview) by a
secret court (like FISA) that's responsible to nobody. Thus, instead
of being on Obama's shoulders, the responsibility will be shared by
the "usual suspects" of the Washington elite.
