I don’t get the adulation for this guy on FR.

Like or him or not, he's right on this.

McCain and his fellow leftists are the ones that want pamper terrorists at the expense of rejecting interrogation tactics that can save innocent lives.

World to Cheney: Crawl back into your cave.

I wish McCain would crawl back into his casket and stop trying undermine Trump. He's the one that won't shut up and spend his remaining time with his family.

Lol, Cheney responsible for the unpopularity of Bush?

Exactly right. And the detainee has the power to stop it at any time. Instantly. All he has to do is *agree* to talk. It’s not what people think. He doesn’t have to spill his guts right then and there.

Water boarding is seldom used and only as a last resort after a long period of cultivating a relationship with an agent. It’s also well supervised.

Merely ship them to a Nation with a grievance and ask for the videos of their questioning!

Dick Cheney misses the limelight meaning the lamestream media going nuts every time he speaks. So he drops the waterboarding bomb and calmly steps back.

Will check Newsbusters tomorrow for angry backlash from Schumer, Joe Scarborough, Andwea Mitchell, Tingles Matthews, et. al.

These people are NOT non-combatants.
These people are NOT uniformed military of a legitimate nation.
These people DELIBERATELY target non’combatants abd employ brutal, savage tortures on their captives

I would willingly hang them by their testicles over a slow fire. Even if they knew nothing.

Agree 100%. That whole crowd needs to sit down, shut up, and stay the ‘H’ out of MAGA seeing as how they don’t want it to happen.

Cheney, just like the Democrats is trying to make an issue out of something that is over, done with, and tucked away in the filing cabinet.

I don't disagree that he's right on this. I just wish he'd go away and never be heard from again.

He completely undermines any position he takes just because he destroyed the credibility of anyone he worked for.

I suspect you will rethink this if a few thousand more Americans die at once because of Progressive niceties.

You are entirely wrong. I’m not against “enhanced interrogations”. I am against these divisive figures of the past chiming in. Trump can think for himself. As time has gone by, I’m more inclined to believe that Cheney was/is a deep state idiot.

Dick Cheney...a true patriot.

I suggest the EIT of firing a 9mm next to the head of the subject, ala,Lt. Col. Alan West. He got results.

Agree. The Democrats are running on & about “torture” and out pops Cheney to reaffirm their message. STHU Cheney. Stop stirring their pot.
