Cheney Is Waist-Deep In It

There is now even more information confirming that Bush-Cheney authorized torture way in advance of the DOJ faux-legal memos-- but even worse, the they OK'd the torture in the hopes of tying Al-Qeda to Iraq and not for protecting the U.S. against terrorists.

According to NBC News investigative producer Robert Windrem:

Two U.S. intelligence officers confirm that Vice President Cheney’s office suggested waterboarding an Iraqi prisoner, a former intelligence official for Saddam Hussein, who was suspected to have knowledge of a Saddam-al Qaeda connection.

The former chief of the Iraq Survey Group, Charles Duelfer, in charge of interrogations, considered the request reprehensible.
