  1. Dick Cheney is the bomb, mainly because he causes such head-explosion in liberals. You all just can’t handle someone making the case for enhanced interrogation in calm, reasoned logic. Which, I might add, a clear majority of the public agrees with. I wouldn’t expect recognition of that fact from these “journalists,” but that doesn’t make it any less true.

  2. Hey Mr. Voluptuous- its called torture, “enhanced interrogation” is cheney speak and is illegal. Most americans do not support torture and if it works so well then why is the boogeyman bin laden still on the loose? what are you so afraid of? is it not obvious to you that lord cheney needs to keep you in fear to control you? if you are so willing torture why are you sitting on your computer in portland instead of in the middle east fighting the “war on (t)error?”
