Cheney: Possible Investigation By Obama "Outrageous Political Act" Video

Dick Cheney says that the Obama administration possibly pursuing an investigation of lawyers from the Bush administration regarding torture "an outrageous precedent to set," calling it an "intensely partisan politicized look back" at the prior administration.

"I think it's an outrageous political act that will do great damage long-term."

He added that the fact that the Obama administration is even thinking about such an investigation after their "track record of defending the nation" for eight years "offends the hell out of me."

He goes on to say that "advanced interrogation techniques" such as waterboarding were "absolutely essential."

niccrant: If I was another country i would use the same on american people that i want information from. Why not the america government just said it ok to get information from people. Do the same to american's and what will they do nothing. Water board american soldiers to and american people to that is traveling abroad...have fun people.
letMEaskYOUaQUESTion: this whole gang of thugs pissed on the constitution and american people, oblitering the country's reputation around the world. WHY are they still alive?
NBKNZR: I didn't vote for the frauds Bush/Cheney, and on 99% of the issues they were wrong. But on this issue of waterboarding, I agree with them. And be sure, regardless of what team Obama says to the sheeple in public, they will have to be more realistic in private. Waterboarding, as practiced by the CIA is extremely effective and safe, although there are exceptions. Opposition to waterboarding is highly political in nature, with a highly pro-Palestinian, pro-Islamofascist slant.
pitbrand: We signed the treaty of the Geneva convention and we don't torture for one reason because we don't want our own troops to be tortured should they be caught in war time. If it is known that we do torture then the chance of our own soldiers that are caught would be treated the same is more than likely. I say this knowing that our soldiers and civilians have experienced this and far worse but when we act in the same we disregard the safety of future potential prisoners or our own military.
DrtyFck: "Opposition to waterboarding is highly political in nature, with a highly pro-Palestinian, pro-Islamofascist slant." You sir, are out of your fucking mind. We executed Japanese military personal for doing it to our soldiers during WWII. Why? It was legally defined as torture, and punishable by death. Are you ok with enemies waterboarding US soldiers?
DrtyFck: "there are videos of people on Youtube walking away fine after being waterboarded. How is it torture?" Videos done for demonstration purposes are EXTREMELY different than real world applications. Ask Christopher Hutchins or radio personality Mancow, both of whom volunteered to be waterboarded, if afterward they view it as torture.
NBKNZR: The CIA version of waterboarding utilized as part of their enhanced interrogation program is no where near the same as the form used against our soldiers in WWII. As you know, our soldiers were starved, multilated, beaten, AND THEN subjected to water torture. "Waterboarding" can be a highly equivocal term. The controversial episodes flaunted by liberal hypocrites are the exception not the rule. Waterboarding is not torture just because Obama says so. Bush and Obama both suck.
randomcrap666: Cheney's goin' to prison! Cheney's goin' to prison!
TheSuperLiberal: The irony is on the eve of 9-11 the country still has not been attacked under Obama. The way I see it Obama has already done a better job than Bush at keeping our country safe.
Iori400: Fuck you Cheney! We want the truth. Every American WANTS TO KNOW THE TRUTH!!
GoogleVideoAlexJones: the left and right are both for the same New World Order agenda. do not be fooled by the divide and conquer deception. bush, obama it doesnt matter they are both New World Order. dont be fools! watch "Obama Deception"
MTL911Truth: FUCK. YOU. CHENEY.
GODincarnated1: i am GOd incarnated JESUS CHRISt is my dad OBAMA is the anti CHRIST
lmfecher: I, for one, would LOVE to waterboard Dick Cheney.
jklyank: This guy is a coward. He chickened out when he had a chance to fight for his country. He's a PUSSY and what he say's is what cowards say, safe in their homes.
LizzyxDarcy: LOL! Cheney could kick your keyboard ass.
LizzyxDarcy: LOL! Another tough guy...
LizzyxDarcy: Shut up!
LizzyxDarcy: Dumba**
lmfecher: "LOL! Another tough guy..." Correction bonehead, I'm not a tough guy, I'm a tough woman!
jklyank: Then you should know your place, Dizzy Lez
lmfecher: I know my place and I also know the place I'd like to put my dizzy lez foot. Right up your ignorant ass. Just saying...
jklyank: Keep in mind, Republicans like to be tough as long as there is someone to do the fighting for them. If they had their ass on the line, they would sing a different tune. Both Bush and Cheney did everything they could to avoid fighting themselves. They are the slime you find hiding under rocks.
Paybacksoon: As a Vietnam Veteran who served under a Democrat named Johnson, this by comparrison is laughable. If one of your loved ones were imminent danger, and I had information that could save their life,you would do whatever was necessary to get that information. If you said you would not then you are either a FOOL or a LIAR!
MedinazAiR: America is so full of shit...they can get Bush and Cheney administration on more than some war crimes...are they serious...when we gonna riot in DC
