you know, i don’t watch fox “news.” i don’t listen to rush and his ilk. so why then do i have to read about what those like ex-vice president cum president cheney have to say? he is a paranoid, frightened and inept man whom he and his party were overwhelmingly voted out of office.

every news story that covers him, his daughter and their defense of torture only gives them power they have not earned and which most of us could care less. it is no longer relevant to the future of this country; we are having a difficult enough time dealing with their consequences.

I would have thought that the people ”soft on defense” were the people who, you know, actually let the US be attacked.

Silly me.

I maintained early in Obama’s administration that he was not going to be transformational but would be merely transitional. What that transition is remains to be seen but given the current climate one can’t help be very concerned. Now Bernie Sanders would have been transformational, with fewer Blue Dogs of course. He has the potential of picking up the torch of Ted Kennedy.

Oooh, Contessa now tellin’ another Rethug apologist that no, that might be what you want the debate to be about, but it is about torture.

You go, Contessa!

Nice pushback with reality.

Since under the Clinton administration the nation suffered exactly zero mass casualty attacks from al Qaeda, the first thing Cheney did was to ask him how he did it, and then pursued exactly the same policies, right?

You nail it, BT. I know the blog’s moved on to a new thread, but had to stop back and say bravo! Chee-knee apologists double-teaming Contessa this morning. Your argument says it all. Chee-knee and his apologists about the business of jury nullification right now, methinks.
