Cheney: I Approved Waterboarding
In a riveting interview with ABC News, Vice President Dick Cheney admitted that he was directly involved in approving the CIA's severe interrogation techniques, including waterboarding. A known supporter of waterboarding, Cheney had never before acknowledged his role in clearing the CIA's use of the technique that has been condemned by many as torture. Cheney also said that unlike President Bush, he thinks Guantanamo Bay should stay open until "the end of the war on terror." He also expressed no regrets about the War in Iraq. Bush recently said the he regretted the flawed intelligence about Saddam Hussein's WMD program but his veep said those mistakes didn't matter. "This was a bad actor and the country's better off, the world's better off, with Saddam gone, and I think we made the right decision in spite of the fact that the original [intelligence] was off in some of its major judgments," Cheney said.

The answer to this moral lapse is obvious: Waterboard Cheney! To paraphrase a current political figure, "This is a bad actor and the country will be better off, the world will be better off, with Cheney in retirement."
thus Cheney confirms that an Iraq War was pre-ordained, simply awaiting a triggering event to unleash the propaganda operation & steamroll Congress. explains alot doesn't it? but not the "why". Saddam-the-tyrant, the plotter of HWB's assassination, the threat to ME stability, was the cover story (worked on W, for sure)... who is going to uncover the truth... that Cheney was simply dedicated to capturing the oil?
I hope you really meant "In Jail" KathyTS. Not sense Nixon have we seen such an open, unrepentant criminal. At least most try to hide it. This Scum has no shame.

This is a very interesting legacy tactic. When all else fails tell the truth and be unrepentant about it?
It is a torture to have to listen to Cheney still speaking in the capacity of Vice President.

How sad that as a country we are not interested in holding these people accountable... The only way the world will accecpt that change has happened...Is...we must file charges against these war criminals!
"He also expressed no regrets about the War in Iraq." Sure, what did he care about a million extra dead Iraqis. HE'S not an Iraqi.
Here's a thought
TRUTH SYRUM? It's been around forever, works well.
Why torture? Unless somebody is getting off by torture? Like maybe Cheney? No not Cheney? A sick SOB???
Maybe Homeland Security should check his basement.
Human tortures of any type, must not be allowed, authorized, and tolerated under any circumstance.
