Cheney's torture admission shows what worms he and W are.
All this macho strutting done by these sociopaths can't erase the cowardice in their sanctioning torture and then letting the "bad apples" from West Virginia take the rap for what they set in motion.I know there are more important aspects of their torture policy, but their willingness to pass the blame to low ranked military personnel opens wide a window to their shriveled souls. Warner, McCain and Graham deserve scorn for their part in the cover-up for the higher-ups at the expense of the rank and file soldier they pretend to care so much about. This does not absolve those who actually meted out the "enhanced interrogation techniques", but if I were Lindy English's father, I would never forgive what these moral degenerates put my daughter through.

2.  Their faux macho strutting me galls me to no end.

They pound the propaganda that Democrats are weak and disloyal while they use every aspect of their status and wealth to avoid serving their country. They are all for accountability when it comes to the pregnant teenagers and riffed workers but when their crimes are revealed, they dismiss efforts to shed light on them as childish finger-pointing. I have no idea how these people live with themselves.

4. His torture admissions are considered evidence
he admitted committing a crime...

The Hague prosecuted, convicted and hung Japanese soldiars for water boarding torture....nuff said.

So I hope they keep on talking, because it will cut the Hague's work in half.
