8. I am so tired of her filibustering... It is about time a moderator...
called her on it, in such a way to embarrass her and send her sniveling back into Angry Dad's hidey hole. I can not understand the kid gloves applied to her. No one on the left gets that kind of deference.

<snip>


The prisoners' arrival -- almost always in diapers -- was engineered to achieve that end. After being shaved, stripped and photographed nude, detainees were examined by CIA medical and psychological personnel. Then came a preliminary interrogation that would determine the prisoners' fate. Only those considered extremely cooperative would avoid a trio of techniques designed to produce a "baseline, dependent" state: the deprivation of clothes, solid food and sleep.

Follow-up sessions would start with the prisoner standing with his back against a wall and a towel or collar to prevent whiplash wrapped around his neck. He could be thrown against the wall just once "to make a point, or 20 to 30 times consecutively."

Prisoners so abhorred the repeated slamming that they would remain in so-called stress positions, such as painful kneeling postures, for hours to avoid a return to the wall, according to one Dec. 30, 2004, memo that amounts to a CIA blueprint for breaking a detainee's will.

19. "Waterboarding WAS NOT USED".
and no one was raped.

Because the video was destroyed, Liz?

Wrong about everything. Poor Liz...forced with a power drill at her head to go out and spread her Father's delusions.

4. Liz Cheney is a pathetic boob. And I know, I'm insulting boobs everywhere when I say that

She'll say anything daddy tells her like a beaten child. I actually pity her. Someone as pathetic as her needs pity. Jail time for daddy and pity for his little girl. That sounds about right.

10. Sorry, but I disagree that she is a boob.
Edited on Mon Aug-31-09 06:52 AM by Enthusiast
She is very skilled at dominating the conversation and forcing her discredited views on the panel. She is an accomplished propagandist. I would imagine she has been trained. I can't stand the bitch.

5. This bitch has all the political capital of Walter Mondale in 1986.
Who really cares what she has to say?
No offense to Fritz as I really admire the guy, but he wasn't setting the world afire in the late 80s.

6. Okay, it's official: the MSM is in on this up to their necks


...They just keep pushing Liz Cheney at us over and over and over and over.


AND THEY NEVER, EVER, give the slightest indication that she is IN THE LEAST qualified to speak about ANYTHING.

Seriously, what is this bitch doing on these panels?????????


JESUS!!!!

She deserves NONE of these opportunities to speak. This is fucking perverse.

...btw...you should fix "INEXUSABLE".

11. There is no question
that the M$M wants to push these views to give cover to Bush Administration malfeasance.

7. Another obnoxious, bleached blond repulsive Republican bitch.
Every time that I have seen these bitches they attempt to talk over their opponents. I would love to see the day when some Democrat slapped some of them silly. What I can't understand is why the major news outlets even have the evil bitch on except to increase their ratings.

12. Can't help but think she's somewhat biased on this.
Can we get the daughter of one of the detainees to tell us whether or not it was actually torture?

26. Let's. Having her up there as a mouthpiece for her father is ridiculous.
Can you imagine Obama's family being allowed to defend him under the same circumstances? Hell no. As Chris Rock said: For them, "It's ALL RIGHT because it's ALL WHITE". (AND they're fucking republicans)

17. A Pox on All the Cheyneys!
Liz Cheyney's only talent is being able to talk louder than anyone else in the discussion and to interrupt - no dignity!

And shame on Dick Cheyney. The well-known chicken-hawk who hid behind his marriage and college to avoid the draft, now hides behind his daughter.

The lot of them are despicable and a blight to the planet.

18. Water-boarding IS torture
So she has the audacity to say water-boarding is not torture. It was torture when we prosecuted the Japanese for it after WWII. But, of course, she's a lying piece of crap like her father so I shouldn't be surprised at anything that comes out of her mouth.

It was torture during the Spanish Inquisition!!! Used to elicit false confessions, not to gather info. And nothing has changed about it since then.

23. She's not actually responding to anything Donaldson is saying
she's just throwing all this sand in everyone's eyes to make it impossible for them to counter her.

In less than a minute she's said waterboarding isn't torture, no one was raped (which isn't the point) and Holder is a political hack. It would take a whole segment just to calmly explain to her what a load of crap everything she just said was. Classic Condi Rice smoke machine.

Why are MSM talking heads so incapable of calling this nonsense out?

25. Why is Liz Cheney even being invited on these panels? She's not an elected official.
She is not a politician. She is not a policy expert. She's not a radio talk show host. Why is it that the M$M sees fit to continue to invite Liz Cheney to these shows? That's like inviting Jenna Bush...oh, wait....:puke:

27. "Here's a cool mil, hon...."
"Now get out there and keep daddy out of the slammer, huh?"

"And don't ever stop talking.... just run that yapper into the ground. Remember, this is for all the marbles."
