Is Cheney Crazy?

[ElmerMudd]

Thankfully, we don't engage in torture.

One more thing we can thank president Obama for .... unfortunately - we did under the Bush administration.

False.

We did not engage in gtorture under President Bush or his Administration, either.

As you knew before you just deliberately lied.

Waterboarding is not torture? You have absolutely have no credibility.

You are a Bush/Cheney apologist. Disgusting.

In 1947, a Japanese soldier who used water boarding against a U.S. citizen during World War II was sentenced to 15 years in U.S. prison for committing a war crime.

Many CIA officials see water boarding as a poor interrogation method because it scares the prisoner so much you can't trust anything he tells you. Senator John McCain, who was tortured as a POW during the Vietnam War, says water boarding is definitely a form of torture. Human rights groups agree unanimously that "simulated drowning," causing the prisoner to believe he is about to die, is undoubtedly a form of psychological torture. The international community recognizes "mock executions" as a form of torture, and many place water boarding in that category. In 1947, a Japanese soldier who used water boarding against a U.S. citizen during World War II was sentenced to 15 years in U.S. prison for committing a war crime.

In September 2006, the Bush administration faced widespread criticism regarding its refusal to sign a Congressional bill outlawing the use of torture techniques against all U.S. prisoners. That same month, the U.S. Department of Defense made it illegal for any member of the U.S. military to use the water-boarding technique. The CIA and its interrogators were unaffected by that new policy, as the CIA is not a branch of the U.S. military.

Water boarding is torture. This topic for Cheney is slight of hand. He doesn't care for the focus to shift to other Bush administration corruption. It's diversionary.

HowStuffWorks "How effective is water boarding?"

CIA members who've undergone water boarding as part of their training have lasted an average of 14 seconds before begging to be released. The Navy SEALs once used the technique in their counter-interrogation training, but they stopped because the trainees could not survive it without breaking, which was bad for morale. When the CIA used the water-boarding technique on al-Qaida operative and supposed "9/11 mastermind" Khalid Sheik Mohammed, he reportedly lasted more than two minutes before confessing to everything of which he was accused. Anonymous CIA sources report that Mohammed's interrogators were impressed.

The conduct against a UNIFORMED combatant by another signatory to the Geneva Accords WOULD be contrary to the Accords. If they carelessly referred to it as "torture," that's unfortunate but hardly binding.

Waterboarding itself is still not torture.

Thanks, Care, we were looking for the same link.

Or is he trying to cover up all the illegal crap he did? None of the files released show anything like he keeps saying about how they kept US safe.

Oh, wasn't it on their watch that we had 9-11 a few months after they failed to read the briefing that "Al Quaeda Determined to Attach in US."

They blew it out their butts and then in panic threw out any laws they didn't like.

He still has his Ducan idiots who say that training our troops in SERE training using waterboarding is the same as waterboarding suspected terrorists.

In SERE training, you know they are on your side and won't kill you. In Cheney's Gitmo, that wasn't the case. They did actually kill a few "suspected" terrorists.

The Cheney supporters have lost touch with any reality but the one he has created in his own dark little mind.

Too many chicken craps in congress etc, however, to really follow up his crimes and the other crimes of the Bush administration. In breeding brings out the worst in our politicians.

If any other country did this to our men, we would have obliterated them, but it's okay because we are the good guys.

Cheney better hope there is not heaven or hell, because he won't be able to lie to God.

Cheney is just trying to keep from going to prison.

What would he go to prison for? Please provide evidence of his alleged crime.

You must be kidding.

He ordered people to be tortured. He outed a CIA agent. He and Bush used the justice department to bring phony charges up against the governor of Alabama. He spied illegally on the American people. He lied to get us into a phony war. He set up a concentration camp.

That's just the short list.

No. He ordered no such thing. The Administration DID, however, authorize SOME use of waterboarding -- and that's not the same thing, nitwit.

And NO. Nobody "outed" ANY CIA agent. He was tangentially involved n the so-called "outing" of a CIA analyst, however. Plame was no agent. That's just liberoidal bullcrap.

Having the Governor investigated was NOT the same thing as having him brought up on any charges, phony or otherwise, twit.

There was ZERO illegal "spying" on Americans. That's just more libbie propaganda -- devoid of truth.

He did not lie to "set up" a phony war. He discussed what we ALL believed (including the prior Administration) about Iraq and the information seemed pretty actionable at the time -- coming on the heels of 9/11 -- especially in light of Saddam Hussein's active support for terrorist organizations.

And there is no truth whatsoever to your insane claim that he set up a "concentration camp."

You are a complete jackass.

Oh wait. You're a libtard. So I have been redundant.

No wonder you are so universally deemed to be a jerkwad and are the BUTT of so many jokes. You lying idiot.

 

[oreo]

This is nothing more than a smoke screen from the current administration.

Obama's public health option is going down the toilet--liberals are absolutely furious that democrats will not pass this bill even though they have superior majorities in all houses.

So to keep the left wing nut-case sheeple in the flock--Obama throws the torture files back at them.

Really now??? Hmmm............

How much do we love the political speculations made by the 21%er k00ks???!!!!

These are the same mental cases who just 2 or 3 years ago were saying that impeachement of George Bush was a slam dunk............which led to one of my all time favorite gay MSPAINT Photobucket classics.......................

So here we are again with the k00ks making their predictions having the political IQ of a small soap dish. But the poop can be summed up with two more classics..............

indeed...........the k00k dreams died that day out in California about 8 weeks ago....................

 

[Gunny]

kinda hard to ignore him when he keeps going out doing talk shows on Fox....maybe he should sit back for a bit and not keep putting himself out there for a year or so? cheney is acting as though he has NEVER LEFT OFFICE imo and i find that strange?

Why should he? Free speech is not just for the left. The LEFT is acting like he never left office. Y'all are the best PR system the right could ever have. So far you have immortalized Cheney, Palin and Beck, and at this point and time, they hold no more office than you.

Keep up the good work.

Actually, the present Administration IS inclined to criminality.

Tax evasion, for example, IS a crime.

Willful violations of the Constitution by the Administration (which is, of course, sworn to uphold the Constitution) also kinda qualifies.

I suspect Cheney believes everthing he says. My impression of the former VP is little different than listening to an alcoholic defend himself or how a sociopath might respond when confronted.
Is Chency crazy? I suspect DSM - IV would find a place for him.

Then there will be investigations and prosecutions. I'm sure you'd approve of that. It's the right thing to do isn't it?
