Oh, the irony of it...
"I might add that people who consistently distort the truth in this way
are in no position to lecture anyone about “values.”" Dicque Cheney...yesterday. And more from the co-leader (along with Sarah Palin, Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh, and the rest of the "We Hate America" crowd of the GOP): "And what we've seen recently that has raised our level of concern to the current state of unrest ... is that he now is trying, through his illicit procurement network, to acquire the equipment he needs to be able to enrich uranium -- specifically, aluminum tubes..." Cheney said that President Barack Obama’s decision to release the four top-secret Bush administration memos on the interrogation techniques was "flatly contrary" to U.S. national security, and would help Al Qaeda train terrorists in how to resist U.S. interrogations. However, Blair, who oversees all 16 U.S. intelligence agencies, said in his statement that he recommended the release of the memos, "strongly supported" Obama’s decision to prohibit using the controversial methods and that "we do not need these techniques to keep America safe." Cheney said the Bush administration "moved decisively against the terrorists in their hideouts and their sanctuaries, and committed to using every asset to take down their networks." The former vice president didn’t point out that Osama bin Laden and his chief lieutenant, Ayman al Zawahri, remain at large nearly eight years after 9/11 and that the Bush administration began diverting U.S. forces, intelligence assets, time and money to planning an invasion of Iraq before it finished the war in Afghanistan against Al Qaeda and the Taliban. Cheney denied there was any connection between the Bush administration’s interrogation policies and the abuse of detainees at Iraq’s Abu Ghraib prison, which he blamed on "a few sadistic guards ... in violation of American law, military regulations and simple decency." However, a bipartisan Senate Armed Services Committee report in December traced the abuses at Abu Ghraib to the approval of the techniques by senior Bush administration officials, including former Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld. "The abuse of detainees in U.S. custody cannot simply be attributed to the actions of ’a few bad apples’ acting on their own," said the report issued by Sens. Carl Levin, D-Mich., and John McCain, R-Ariz. "The fact is that senior officials in the United States government solicited information on how to use aggressive techniques, redefined the law to create the appearance of their legality and authorized their use against detainees." - - - **** you, Cheney...may your pacemaker give out four hours away from any hospital...and even that would be not enough to balance out the lives of the 4,0000 American soldiers you and your ****-for-brains president sent to die in Iraq for no damned good reason. |

Harry tries to make people here think he is refined and cultured, and here he is being vulgar, foul mouthed, and wishing death on someone. |
