You can't just single him out, assuming that this is found to be
criminal.


The thing about Cheney was mostly tongue in cheek. I have mixed emotions
about going after these guys. I don't feel the need for prosecutions,
but it is a democracy and we need to know what happened to keep it from
happening again. These guys, ill-advised as they were IMO, were working
for our benefit. I don't need vengeance. I just need it not to happen
again. But Cheney should keep his mouth shut.


I don't see how torturing prisoners is "working for our benefit."
