Cheney Says Detainees Are Well Treated

By AGENCE FRANCE-PRESSE

WASHINGTON, June 23 (Agence France-Presse) - Vice President Dick Cheney said on Thursday that prisoners at the detention camp in Guantánamo Bay, Cuba, had everything they could possibly want and were well fed and well treated as they lived in the "tropics."

Mr. Cheney dismissed calls to close the facility, which holds terrorism suspects. "They got a brand new facility down at Guantánamo," Mr. Cheney said in an interview with CNN. "We spent a lot of money to build it. They're very well treated down there."

"They're living in the tropics," he added. "They're well fed. They've got everything they could possibly want. There isn't any other nation in the world that would treat people who were determined to kill Americans the way we're treating these people."

1. Oh yeah?! He also says that were winning in Iraq....

They're building nukes in Iran, Saddam had weapons of mass destruction, and "F*ck you" in the Senate!

[BurtWorm]

3. We spent a lot of money on those facilities.

Had to, cause Kellogg, Root & Brown built them.

2. "Dismissed calls"? Yes. We will now ignore them-The Dark Voice has spoken!

And we can ALL trust that asshole?

"Go Fuck Yourself!"

[Jade Fox]

4. Does this guy even realize what he's saying is contrary to reality?

Is he a liar or a madman?

[BurtWorm]

5. Neither.

He is the Devil's minion.

[FloridaPat]

6. Then the whole bunch of them won't mind being there when they are

convicted of treason and war crimes. I like it.

[noamnety]

7. Given Cheney's determination to kill Americans

by sending them to a needless war, perhaps he would like to live in the tropics. I bet he enjoys eating. What else could he possibly want?

8. Did he offer a tour of the SPA with the pool and jacuzzi?

I didn't think so.

[cynatnite]

9. Geez, I guess I'll ignore all the yelling from pesky little groups

Like Amnesty International, International Red Cross and the UN :sarcasm:

10. Hatley on Charlie Rose said the insurgents are infiltrators

Yeah it's not like we pissed off and pissed on the Iraqi's. It's not that they hate our guts and will splatter us with theirs just to blow up our ass.

No the Iraqi's love us and want to be like us but we have to stop the bad guys from coming in. Now the best way to do that is to go into Iran and Syria so that they all can live happily ever after.

Note: the First Armored Division will return to Iraq two months ahead of schedule according to a thread this afternoon.

[LaPera]

Surprise, suprise. We ocupy their land & stealing their resouces..

BushCo is never going to leave that oil behind.

They are going to keep stringing it and us along. As we keep yelling & screaming.

Divert attention to the "terrorist"...Fear, they are masters of fear...And It's working.

Blame it on everything and everyone else.

Rove: The Democrats.

[Burried News]

15. We need to keep the troops there to protect Iraq from

the Iranians.

[Burried News]

16. BushCo is never going to leave that oil behind.

I reluctantly agree. And by stealing their oil we seal our future because as a country we need the challenge of reinventing the energy supply and designing better products and more sensible ways of living.
An easy life is not necessarily a good life - for us as individuals or society as a whole.

[SammyWinstonJack]

11. As comprared to what?

And who the hell would believe anything that major league asshole had to say?

[LaPera]

13. The "Red" people...

They really believe every word of it!

The MSM is the culprit. Lying, sick, manipulating, greedy fucks, that they are.

Please, remember to buy blue...http://www.buyblue.org/alphalist.php

It truly makes a difference!

[Burried News]

12. On Sunday Condi said the "so called' insurgents

The guys blowing themselves up are from Syria and Iran.
Cute - how can you not trust a lady in a yellow suit and Perles.

It's all kida confusin to us plain folks so keep doin what ya doin Condi. We trust ya'all. It cain't be no accident that Jesus and Bush both have a U.S. in their name. And as for that flag thang - if we cain't burn a cross you cain't burn a flag. Thems both sacred rightous symbols.

[Burried News]

14. And the insurgents aren't pissed off, pissed on Iraqis.

This is why we have to go to Syria and stop these Syrians from spoiling everything. See if it was like Haiti where ... oops maybe that's not the best example. See it's like Afghanistan where the Pakistanis won't - I mean can't - I mean they're trying very hard, and significant progress is being made, yada yada yada


We don't need no education - we don't need no thought control
All in all - they all need a trip to a wall

17. "They've got everything they could possibly want."

Except for their families, their way of life, not being handcuffed in 100 degree heat until they soil themselves, not having to avoid those pesky airvents that are somehow confused with urinals, not knowing what they are there for, not having legal recourse, not being able to meet with human rights groups...


Other than that, it's just like home.
