Recently in an interview with ABC's Martha Raddatz, Vice President Cheney said he, as well as other top officials in the Bush Administration personally approved the CIA's use of torture techniques like waterboarding. For those who don't know what waterboarding is, here's a little description.
Waterboarding: a form of torture in which the prisoner is immobilized on their back with the head inclined downward while having water poured over the face into the breathing passages. The person being tortured essentially experiences the process of drowning and is made to believe that death is imminent.
Well Dick, you've out done yourself this time. Openly admitting to America's use of torture in the War on Terror on national television. You are essentially challenging the public to bring legal action against you and others in the Bush-Torture Administration. But Im sure you're not worried. On January 20th, you won't take responsibility for the atrocious things that went down under your watch. After all, isn't that what a pardon is for?
