POPSCheney: Translated In other words, he knows he's guilty of commanding underlings to torture, and that torture is illegal in the US.

POPSWake Up, America Thanks to Bush, Cheney and the GOP, this is how the world views you. Not even a hip, young president is enough to fix that, unless you admit to what you did and make reparations.

POPSI'd like to hear him explain why... why Cheney needed a special, private platoon of snipers and assassins, when there were already trained snipers and assassins in the armed force? Why did Cheney need a special troop that answered only to him? I'll tell you why. The story about them being to assassinate Al Queda operatives was a load of bull. He wanted them to assassinate his political enemies at home. At the very least, it was more military pork; doubling up something that already existed. This time, the right-wing extremist, Michael Ramirez opened the door to some very serious questions with this deluded cartoon.

POPSCheney broke the law with CIA program Panetta's subordinates told him about the program on June 23, and he briefed two intelligence committees the following day, the Times reported. Under the National Security Act of 1947, the U.S. president must ensure the intelligence committees are informed about "intelligence activities in the United States, including any significant anticipated intelligence activity." However, the Act also stipulates briefings should be held "to the extent consistent with due regard for the protection from unauthorized disclosure of classified information relating to sensitive intelligence sources and methods or other exceptionally sensitive matters." Feinstein said the law shows Congress should have been told about the program, and the Bush administration's failure to do so "is a big problem." It's unclear how U.S. President Barack Obama will address the issue. Since taking office, he has been reluctant to uncover any alleged wrongdoing by the Bush administration.

POPSCheney defending what he had built. I note a certain hint of desperation in Cheney's antics as he tries to justify the atrocities he engendered. People just need to stop paying any attention to him or anything he says and he'll go away, like a bad drug trip.

POPSStill on TV ... and spreading fear and paranoia on behalf of Muslim Extremists. Now you know why there haven't been any more terror attempts; their budget is entirely devoted to paying Cheney to be their PR man.

POPSA Raving Lunatic is out to Destroy America ... and his name is Dick Cheney. He wants to steal away your rights, leave the country morally bankrupt and accomplish the Muslim Extremists' goal of making people too afraid to live their lives as normal. Then add to that fact he's a War Criminal, and he turns out to be a real peach.

POPSDon't dwell on the past!!?? Some things need to be addressed and dealt with before we move on. That includes American citizens torturing people in their custody. The people who tortured need to be prosecuted, and if found guilty, punished for their crimes. And enough of that "they were just following orders" nonsense. The US military code allows for people to disobey orders if they disagree with them morally. The people who committed the tortures knew that it was wrong, and should have rejected the orders as conscientiously objectionable. Start with the little guys; eventually they'll rat out their bosses to get lighter sentences, and before you know it, Bush and Cheney will be serving hard time for the war crimes they committed.

POPSWhy did they torture? Not only has all reliable evidence (obviously excluding memos by Bush Legal Experts with no psychological training) shown that torture doesn't work, but the information they were trying to get wasn't going to save a single human life. They tortured to try to get evidence to justify their bullshit war in Iraq. Why again is Obama waffling on allowing those evil bastards from being delivered to justice? Bush and Cheney should be rotting in prison cells in Geneva, awaiting trial for their war crimes.

POPSScare tactics The kind of fearmongering in this cartoon is reminiscent of Bush and Cheney screaming "Boo!" to get everyone to give up their constitutional rights for the sake of a little fake security. But what can you expect from Mike Lester; he's a putz, and a peon of the conservative agenda to strip away your rights, and give all your money to the rich.
