In his most aggressive public relations move since leaving office, former Vice President Dick Cheney today established a Facebook page for fans of torture.

In recent weeks, Mr. Cheney has been speaking out in praise of such controversial interrogation tactics as waterboarding, but in establishing his Facebook page the vice president seems to be attempting something far more ambitious: creating a social network for torture fans everywhere.

"This is a place where fans of waterboarding can meet, chat, and yes, hook up," Mr. Cheney told Fox News host Sean Hannity last night.

3. That has a future
...as a place to pick up S&M types. I guess that's useful to somebody.

4. It was only when I got to the last paragraph
that I was able to determine that this was satire.

I think that's a pretty good indication on how far out there the Right has gone.
