Actions have consequences....

Last weekend, former VP Dick Cheney came out and said that he would rather have Rush Limbaugh in the Republican party instead of his former White House coworker Colin Powell, even going as far to say that Colin Powell, who wasn't a draft dodger like Cheney, wasn't a Republican any longer. Bubbling below the surface, was Cheney trying to pimp his case that torture worked. Today, Colin Powell's top aide came out and said the only reason Cheney created the torture program was to try and tie Al Qaeda to Iraq. The one terrorist suspect who claimed a link under waterboarding torture, but later recanted, just mysteriously killed himself. Does anyone else think that if Dick Cheney would have just kept his mouth shut he and the former Bushites would have just rode off into the sunset without any of these details coming out? I certainly do. Now they're out there just asking for people to leak what really happened.

I heard the phrase that Cheney is trying to "taint the jury pool." Intersting theory.

I can't stand how the Republicans have successfully dog whistled the media into focusing on Nancy Pelosi's role instead of Cheney's. Liberal media my ass.

you're just now figuring out that the liberal media BS is just that....BULLSHIT???

I still don't get why they are able to make the case that Pelosi is bad because she supposedly knew about waterboarding, which they claim in NOT bad. it doesn't make sense.

Well, and what I'd like them ALSO to answer is this: if it was all classified, what in the world could Pelosi have actually done to stop it, even if she DID know it was going on?
