5 Deferment Cheney Should be Rotting in the Hague

http://truth-out.org/opinion/item/24462-dick-cheney-should-be-rotting-in-the-hague-not-writing-editorials

snip:

American history has had its share of villains - J. Edgar Hoover, Joe McCarthy, and Richard Nixon come to mind as some of the worst - but there is no one in recent history who has disgraced our country quite like Dick Cheney has.
He lied his way into an illegal war, profited off that war, and shredded the Constitution. He's a war criminal and has the blood of hundreds of thousands of innocent people on his hands.
Dick Cheney should be rotting in a prison cell at The Hague, not writing editorials for the Wall Street Journal.


Only in America does a war criminal get both open heart surgery resulting in a new heart, and an open mike to spew his vile views.

warmongers. They need to go to a really nasty place with nasty guards and nasty fellow inmates.

Besides, the Hague is a very pretty place with lovely art. No, he doesn't get to go there...I want him in a hellhole...

vintage Olberman (2004-2007), and the speeches of George McGovern ( a true American hero).

He is the worst, and unlike McCarthy and Nixon, no one with a real media voice or any political power would ever take him on with the truth. At least those two were eventually scorned.

as long as Bush, Rumsfeld, Rice, and Ashcroft were frog-marched into the Hague with him.

They committed vicious crimes in the name of power and oil. They need to rot in a dungeon.
