Vote Dick Cheney- Vice President for Torture

Pretty frightening, and obvious, language coming from former head of the CIA Stansfield Turner:

Cheney has lobbied against the legislation, prompting Turner to say he's "embarrassed that the United State has a vice president for torture. I think it is just reprehensible."

Turner, a retired Navy admiral who headed the intelligence agency from 1977 to 1981 under President Jimmy Carter, stood firm on his earlier remarks Friday and, in a CNN interview, scoffed at assertions that challenging the administration's strategy aided the terrorists' propaganda efforts.

"It's the vice president who is out there advocating torture. He's the one who has made himself the vice president in favor of torture," said Turner, who from 1972 to 1974 was president of the Naval War College, a think tank for strategic and national security policy.

Cheney's positioning of himself at the very top of The Administration's power structure has fed torture's enactment as viable American policy. It's insane. Many of use were "concerned" when Dick Cheney, on the hunt for Bush's VP nominee, found himself. But it truly has turned out to be far worse than we could have imagined. He's restructured America's practices into the forefront of moral compromise, hypocrisy, and confusion. The only goal apparently being that he then gets to do whatever the hell he wishes.
