But I already know what he’ll say… something along the lines of “When we do it, it’s not torture.” And he’ll probably sincerely believe that.

#50 What an idiot. The story was true. Cheney had a program drawn up to kill top Al Qaeda chiefs. Apparently, librul congress people want them alive and loose in Pakistan. I wonder why?

Sigh… look, wingnut, can you at least be consistent in your wingnuttery? You’re OK with the U.S. government making plans to assassinate people they don’t like. Fine. But can you at least stop the babbling about how the U.S. is the bestest country in the world, ever, honest injun! Countries that openly proclaim their desire to assassinate people they don’t like, don’t fall into the “bestest country ever” category, they’re in the “rogue state” category.

Sigh… wingnuts…

Absolutely, but I doubt even Douglas Adams could’ve dreamed up this nasty little creature. Putting Cheney in a Dalek, is like dressing Hitler in an easter bunny outfit.

I used to respect conservatives when they were still against big brother governmental intrusion in our private lives.

But 911 make them collectively take a crap on the constitution.

“Another official told The Associated Press that while Congress was aware of the program, CIA Director Leon Panetta recently told lawmakers that according to notes he had been given Cheney directed the CIA not to tell Congress specifics of the secret program.

Panetta told the committees there was no indication of anything illegal or inappropriate about the effort itself, the official said.”

Another liberal scam of the American public. Congress approved the program in question. What a bunch of idiots. I say jail all of congress for terminal stupidity…

So, so tiresome to read all the ‘Bush regime’ nonsense from the lockstep left again… I thought one benefit of the Obama presidency, (other than the sheer pleasure I derive from the fact that he’s continuing many of the Bush administration policies that provide what little basis exists for historically ignorant people to yammer on about dictatorships and regimes) was that this stuff would go the way of Alar or the imminent new ice age.

“The battle is part of a long-running tug of war between the executive branch and the legislature about how to oversee the activities of the country’s intelligence services and how extensively the CIA should brief Congress. … Congress has pushed for greater oversight. The Obama administration, much like its predecessor, is resisting any moves in that direction.”

Hmm, time to try Obama I guess…

Scott Ritter has said basically the same thing regarding WMD. He says the Republicans kept quiet because they didn’t want to admit they lost control of the materials.
