Both Liz Cheney and DU are both angry at Obama over torture.

[RandySF]

Liz Cheney bashed President Obama Friday night for the way he characterized CIA interrogation practices after Sept. 11, 2001 as "torture."

"Even before I came into office, I was very clear that in the immediate aftermath of 9/11, we did some things that were wrong. We did a whole lot of things that were right, but we tortured some folks," Obama said during a Friday press conference. We did some things that were contrary to our values."

Cheney said this was unacceptable.

"This president is an utter disgrace. He’s got a situation where, as your last two reports showed, you’ve got crises erupting around the world. And he is expending more time, more energy, more passion, more aggressive activity in targeting and going after patriots, heroes, CIA officers and others who kept is safe after 9/11," Cheney said on Fox News' Hannity.

"He’s lying about what they did, he’s slandering them, he went to Cairo and did it in 2009. Today he did it from the podium of the Oval Office. It’s a disgrace. It’s despicable," Cheney continued.

1. I suspect nearly every country in the world has tortured others.

"Every country" means individuals. There's a ton of stuff that happens when certain people are not watched.
If you think I'm off-base, look at what (even) some Police Officers do when they ARE watched.

7. This is merely the latest effort to massage DEMS into accepting torture as "good/moral/decent."

Not gonna happen!

4. Why are you pairing DU with Liz Cheney?

5. Admitting it and getting it into public and worldwide record is a good thing

and might be the first baby step on the road to throwing all those bastards into prison.

However, equating DU with Liz Cheney? Enjoy your short stay and what do you want your epitaph to be?

6. It's as if she is looking in a mirror and describing herself & dad. Uncanny.

almost like poetry.

"He’s lying about what they did ...
from the podium of the Oval Office.
It’s a disgrace.
It’s despicable....

8. Because being unhappy with lack of prosecutions is the same as being unhappy with

calling it torture? That's what is called a 'false equivalence': http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/False_equivalence

11. Well said

Unbelievable

9. This is a confusing post. Are you saying that "DU" hold the same position as Liz in regards

to torture? Are you saying that "DU" agrees that Obama is lying? That Obama is smearing patriots and heroes?
