So Cheney appears on television and declares

for the whole world to see and hear:

Yeah, I ordered torture. What are you going yo do about it? If I was still in power, we'd still be torturing, but since I'm not, I'd do it again in a heartbeat. Bwahahahaha! (Sarcastically) Ohhhh...I'm so scared! See, I'm shaking!

I've got powerful friends, even Obama and Holder, and nobody is going to touch me. All those suckers yelling for me to be prosecuted are shouting into deaf ears. Torture Power, suckers. Again, what are you going to do about it?




Unfortunately, according to someone very powerful, quote: "We’re still evaluating how we’re going to approach the whole issue of interrogations, detentions, and so forth. And obviously we’re going to look at past practices. And I don’t believe that anybody is above the law. On the other hand, I also have a belief that we need to look forward as opposed to looking backwards. And part of my job is to make sure that for example at the CIA, you’ve got extraordinarily talented people who are working very hard to keep Americans safe. I don’t want them to suddenly feel like they’ve got to spend all their time looking over their shoulders and lawyering up."

Obama and Holder are keeping criminals safe, including torture Architects/Designers/Planners, Wall Street bankers and CEOs, and the police that are killing innocent civilians.

Cheney said Rectal feeding was NOT torture..... VanillaRhapsody Dec 2014 #1
Rectal feeding isn't "feeding" anyway. You can absorb some water there. Very little else. enki23 Dec 2014 #2
Yes we all know....that is why I suggest Cheney volunteer to prove it to those of us doubters... VanillaRhapsody Dec 2014 #3
We can't all know, or Rove wouldn't be able to go defend it on television. enki23 Dec 2014 #4

It's such a stupid lie to anyone with even a fucking tiny bit of understanding of physiology. It's a sick joke. Why is no one noting this fact? You cannot be "fed" via the rectum. Hydrated maybe. A little. If you want to be an archaic asshole. But not fucking fed.

We wouldn't be expected to pretend that these CIA motherfuckers didn't know, or weren't told.
