    She’s such a cowardly woman. Torturing detainees is easier than taking the legal and just route.

    Give me the cloth, water jug, the board, and let me pour water down Liz Cheney’s nose. We’ll see if she’ll still defend waterboarding as not torture after just one second.

      A couple of days of it and Cheney will admit to crimes that occurred before she was born.

    Hero: a person, typically a man, who is admired or idealized for courage, outstanding achievements, or noble qualities.

    Patriot: a person who vigorously supports their country and is prepared to defend it against enemies or detractors.

    I don’t believe Cheney understands either of these definitions. Torture is not ok. It’s not ok when others do it and it’s not ok when we do it. Only in America can a person be vilified more for pointing out torture that someone else perpetrated than the actual torturer!

    I was wondering what color the sky was on her planet; then I remembered who and what her father is. The sky is fire. And brimstone. The Cheneys are some of the most evil people this country has been subjected to. As long as you don’t call it torture, it isn’t. Right.

    Liz Cheney thinks that torturers are heroes and patriots, in addition, she thinks that President Obama is a disgrace. Why is this considered news?

    Wow, Liz – so Obama is a Hero and a patriot? He continued Bagram; Refuses to allow habeas corpus and due process; allows and supports the force feeding of detainees and the use of isolation; continues to deny all human and civil rights …He must be as great as your daddy

      Obama “continues to deny all human and civil rights”?

      You’re as ludicrous as the teabaggers.

        Obviously, you haven’t been paying attention –
        1) Chelsea manning
        2) Guantanamo – force feeding detainees; constant genital inspections (up to 7 times just walking to meet their attorney down a hall), use of isolation for no reason other than as abusive measure just cuz;…That is simply a few – I can get into the lying to detainees and attorneys, denial of ability of attorneys to meet with their clients and the search and seizure of case documents (that are required by law to be left alone)aforementioned
        23) NSA spying
        4) Murder of US citizens without Due Process
        4) Drone slaughter
        5) Free speech zones still in effect
        shall I keep going?

        ******In addition – as far as “tea party” – ROFLOL..Unlike you, apparently, I tend to look at big pictures and have no respect for any war criminals from Clinton to Reagan to Bush 1 to Bush 2 to Obama to Netanyahu, to al Maliki to Cameron to the entire GOP marching war mongers and the DNC apologists.

        I actually am a leftist unlike the pretenders to liberalism that are right of center with the all mighty Guru of neo-con lite, Barack Obama

    First, I got hung up on the lower teeth. They are exactly like her Father’s. Can no on in that family invest in some damn braces? Second, why is the rest of the world having issues Obama’s fault exactly? Oh, right … Jenna Marbles explains it:
