Now I understand why Cheney chose not to enter the army

[rurallib]

At that time there were no positions that allowed one to torture. Now I see the light.
I am sure those who think he was a coward for not upping for a war he supported will understand his motivation.

1. he is a cowardly repuke hypocrite bastard

that's why he had "other things to do" than serve his country

[rurallib]

2. Well that too. But if they'd had a toturer position someone with Cheney's

temperment would be hard pressed not to sign up.

3. wasn't the army massively torturing the Vietnamese during the Vietnam War?

Cheney would have been in his glory giving Vietnamese civilians electric shocks applied to their scrotums. didn't the army even have a special word for torturing people using the battery packs in their squad radios?

4. Your are correct, President Johnson's Army

in Vietnam did torture. But to my recollection, it was not a specific policy dictated from the White House.
