Liz Cheney Assails Release of Detainee Abuse Photos as 'Siding with Terrorists' -- and Is White House Walking the Photo Release Back?

The entire Cheney family should be detained without recourse and waterboarded over 280 times...

Listen, I'm a politician which means I'm a cheat and a liar, and when I'm not kissing babies I'm stealing their lollipops. But it also means I keep my options open.

1. Torture does bot work. The interrogated doesn't tell the TRUTH, in more the 80 % of the cases, that's the problem. He confesses everything to avoid pain.

2. They totured, that is a fact.

3. A court decision is a court decision!

4. the soldier r in danger, but because they tortured and NOT because they took pictures of it.

5. time to imprison those who ordered torture. NOW!

4.

"Did you forget the kidnapping in IRAQ of soldiers that ended up with their bodies decapitated, burned, hung on bridges."

Those weren't soldiers, those were Blackwater mercenaries.

And in response to that incident we killed about 10,000 innocent Iraqis while leveling Fallujah.

"In July 2007, the last of 500 METRIC TONS OF YELLOW CAKE WAS safely shipped from Irag to Canada. The US News Media did not report any of this to make it appear that the Bush administration was wrong on invading IRAQ. For you mental genuises, Yellow Cake is one of the ingredients to make nuclear grade uranium to CREATE NUCLEAR WEAPONS. Thus your WMD's."

The yellowcake was from the 80's and there were no WMD's.

"To not be hypocritical, Leftists must admit that Obama's execution order is far worse than subjecting a few mass murderers to temporary discomfort.

Where is the outrage over this gross violation of international law, the Geneva Convention, Pirate's Habeas Corpus, etc. and the fact Obama created many more violent Pirates with his actions?"

As anticipated, the Liberal Hypocrisy on this issue is STUNNING!"

ROFLMAO!

The lies the right wing needs to tell to create a moral quandry is hilarious.

An American was in immediate danger and the people on the ground with authorization from the chain of command did what they felt was right.

"While we're at it, why don't we release the videos of Obama's ordered executions of three teenage Pirates who were in US Custody (in a lifeboat tethered to a U.S. Warship)?

To not be hypocritical, Leftists must admit that Obama's execution order is far worse than subjecting a few mass murderers to temporary discomfort.

Where is the outrage over this gross violation of international law, the Geneva Convention, Pirate's Habeas Corpus, etc. and the fact Obama created many more violent Pirates with his actions?"

It's good to see that Obama has taken Liz Cheney's advice and is now not going to show the detainee photos, huh?

I'm sick of listening to all of this whining. Give the guy a break... The man hasn't even been in office 6 months yet. I may not agree with all of his views but at least the man is trying to make some desparately needed changes. People want to complain about the possible release of these pictures. Pictures that were taken of our soldiers following orders from a tyranical, vindictive mama's boy on a power trip and his cranky, old, NRA card carrying sidekick. We need to show that we are better than those terrorist SOB's... the "we have ways of making you talk" days are over.

So, for all you Obama haters... If you don't like it here, the rest of us true Americans could really use the break from listening to your incoherent, asinine babblings. The border doors swing both ways and don't let the door hit you were the good lord split you...

stephan: point us to that fact? url.. news agency? and where in canada were the iraqi's supposedly going to build this a bomb? i was living in canada at the time and never heard of such a thing and canada's news certainly covers more "news" than our agencies do. they do not fill there segments with any fodder about celebrities or much about the stupidity that americans portray. where is this factual story you claim???? or do you posses a lying tongue like your heroes?

In July 2007, the last of 500 METRIC TONS OF YELLOW CAKE WAS safely shipped from Irag to Canada. The US News Media did not report any of this to make it appear that the Bush administration was wrong on invading IRAQ. For you mental genuises, Yellow Cake is one of the ingredients to make nuclear grade uranium to CREATE NUCLEAR WEAPONS. Thus your WMD's. Why wasn't this reported by the US new media, while it was certainly getting much news media attention form the Canadian and British News Media. Along with the fact that as of December 2008, there were only 1500 insurgents left in IRAQ as the surge that was instituted earlier in the year was in fact the reason that we won the IRAQI war as reported by the London TImes?

to the comments that liberals have not been able to see the truth since 2002. I dont know where the WMD's are that thousands have forsaken their life to find? Our president Obama was one of the few that stood up against this bold face deception firmly with truth on his side!!! the american people can also see this truth and that is why there took place a cleaning of the den of fascism that had resided in washington for the last 8 years. i do have respect for those that will sacrifice their life regardless if the cause is a bold face fabrication or not. but i do also know that not all soldiers are honorable, that not all war causes or actions are just.

Bush & Cheney and republicans on torture

It was the right thing to do.
But by all means let's keep it secret.

gotta love those true 'convictions' of the 'right'

debbie, so you should also be for waterboarding of your neighbors and citizens of urban areas with a high murder rate... YES? The odds are a million times more likely that an american will suffer abuse and die at the hands of another citizen than by a foreign combatant.

CNO: while you are standing on the shores of another country, securing land rights and access to another countries resources for corporations to fill their pockets... millions are standing on our shores, on our land defending our country from tyranny from within. we will not receive medals or monuments, but daily we wake and stand for the same cause that millions stood for hundreds of years ago. to preserve the essence that led to lady liberty holding firmly her light of liberty, truth and justice!!!

CNO and the rest of the clan: I get sick and tired of those whom refer to the lack of rights that others have in another country and how the vets of the last three wars have shored up and saved our liberties and constitution and thats why we can live, communicate and express ourselves. FIRST OFF, it was the noble men and woman of the revolutionary war that sealed our freedoms into concrete and forged Americas rights into the constitution. To compare vietnam, iraq I & II to that accomplishment is to spit in the face of the founding fathers and their true fight for independence and soverenty and freedom. SECONDLY, I see how those that wish to askew truth in order to corrupt our system, throw out parts of the constitution that does not fit their agenda, but grasp the amendment that allows one to bear arms with bold blood and glory. most of us do not own guns, we respect life and we live by the code of due onto your brother as you would have them do unto you. If this is the same lot that will reside in a heaven with all of those whom truly sacrifice their lives so as to eliminate suffering and torment for all, i am willing to send my soul to damnation in order to always maintain a distance and great divide from them.

I just can't believe Liz dared to voice her own personal views. Doesn't she realize that only the left owns the right to express dissent? Everyone else needs to sit down, shut up, and pay their taxes to fund Obama's Utopia.

re: 'None of the officers that did this deed should be punished! they were doing there job, what they were told to do and it probably worked very well.'

using your reasoning,...
you've just justified the Nazi holocaust against the jews of Europe, and every other mass extermination throughout history

I am all for waterboarding if it got the information they needed to protect us (THE AMERICAN PEOPLE)!! None of the officers that did this deed should be punished! they were doing there job, what they were told to do and it probably worked very well.

For those people who see the world as 'an eye for an eye.' For those who believe that torture is acceptable when our enemies use them, I have a question:
When does it stop?
For the United States to authorize torture, war and invasion, we become the very thing terrorists accuse us of becoming.
I have 'worn the uniform.' I have served my country in time of war. And I believe torture is wrong. For those who think I have turned my back on my country I ask you, what happens if your child becomes a terrorist? Or if someone accuses YOU of being a traitor? What then? Would you endorse torture if it was being done to you?
