Cheney says top congressional Democrats complicit in spying

[douglas9]

Dick Cheney's interview yesterday with Fox's Chris Wallace was filled with significant claims, but certainly among the most significant was his detailed narration of how the administration, and Cheney personally, told numerous Democratic Congressional leaders -- repeatedly and in detail -- about the NSA warrantless eavesdropping program. And, according to Cheney, every one of those Democrats -- every last one -- not only urged its continuation, but insisted that it be kept secret:

1. I'm not sure Dick Cheney is a reliable source

He does have a little problem with honesty.

3. True, but the notion of Vichy Democrats being complicit isn't exactly

a massive shocker, is it?

6. I suppose not; we'll have to see what they say in response to this

2. "When we told them what we had on them thru our warrantless wiretaps,

they went right along with the program."

4. Was there anyone who didn't already get this?

"Impeachment is off the table" was pretty blatant code for "uh, we can't prosecute because we are complicit in all these crimes ourselves."

FISA/eavesdropping, torture, going to war on false claims, guantanamo, you name the crime.

5. We knew that....

dem fuckwads!

7. Well, we know about Feinstein. I guess Reid Pelosi Hoyer can be assumed..

Perhaps it's all the DLC? I couldn't repress the thought, therefore the question.
