What do you think Cheney was trying to hide from Congress??

[kentuck]

In my opinion, he had a no-holds-barred interrogation program that he wanted, in wanton disregard of the Geneva Convention and all rules of warfare. He felt personally violated by the actions of 9/11.

We have heard reports of over 100 people dying while being interrogated. Could this be those that might have died under the "no-rules" interrogation of Dick Cheney and his accomplices at CIA? Or will the CIA say they "were only following orders"? Does CIA mean "no personal responsibility"?

How long before we find out the truth about this? Or will we ever find out?

1. crime on the grandest of scales. cheney is a stunning example of why we need a constitution.

[Double T]

3. There is/was a Constitution.

Cheney rewrote IT without telling anyone.

[spanone]

4. he at best chose to ignore it. and obviously without repercussions.

[wroberts189]

11. And very much need more people to defend it. nt

[sam sarrha]

2. i certainly hope he starts hiding from the TV Cameras, i'm sick of that pig

[underpants]

6. He finally got a book deal

He hasn't made a statement since that was sewn up

Mission accomplished

[wroberts189]

12. Its like watching Montgomery Burns from the Simpsons. Only not funny. nt

[underpants]

5. I still think he used it to blackmail Congress

not that he had anything on them (anyone at that level tends to have something on them) but the hint of the myth of the ghost of having something on them

[wroberts189]

7. imho.. UNSPEAKABLE ACTS OF MURDER, TORTURE, AND THEFT .

for a start.

and oh yea ...that he is Satan himself and commands the vast armies of darkness.

[gkhouston]

8. Everything. He's so damned paranoid he probably carries a personal incinerator

to dispose of used Kleenex when he's not using it to roast kittens.

[orpupilofnature57]

9. How many kittens he ate that month ? come on folks,the " Go f-ck yourself "

guy

[wroberts189]

10. His fu comment to Leahy .. yes thats a good clue.

He eats kittens as well? ...Damn I knew it. Bet he he tortures them first.

[valerief]

13. Grand theft, threats to kill, torture, murder, and TREASON. nt

[ColbertWatcher]

14. And other assorted crimes against the Constitution. n/t

[valerief]

15. Yayass! nt

[bobthedrummer]

26. Yep, a domestic enemy of The United states of America...

[coalition_unwilling]

16. My guess is that it was a program

to "disappear" and\or torture domestic political opponents of the Bush junta.

That or a new Phoenix program of extra-judicial assassinations in the Middle East.

Now would be a good time for a Dan Ellsburg or John Dean to come forward. The American people deserve to know what horrors were committed in their names.

[druidity33]

17. hhmmm...

the fact that he was spying on Congress?

:shrug:

[kerry-is-my-prez]

21. and all journalists.....

[kentuck]

22. and common citizens...

like You and I...?

[InkAddict]

18. Duplicate Executive pigskin luggage n/t

[jimshoes]

[Z_I_Peevey]

20. Remember this Golden Oldie?

[pocoloco]

23. "He felt personally violated"

Where the fuck did you come up with that horse shit??

[PretzelWarrior]

25. exactly what I was thinking.

[kentuck]

27. He was promoted to be in charge of foreign affairs

by Poppy Bush, since Dubya didn't know anything about foreign affairs, at all. After all, he had been Secretary of Defense in the First Gulf War. He may have felt somewhat responsible for the attack on 9/11. They challenged him personally, he must have felt? After all, he had a reputation to keep up. He had been Chief of Staff after Richard Nixon. I'm not a psychologist, but I think Dick Cheney was one sick puppy.

[PretzelWarrior]

24. you suppose he's only that evil. He WANTED 9/11. He wanted Iraq.

This isn't just about what he tried to get away with in the wake of 9/11.
