McCain On Cheney

McCain On Cheney

by Andrew

Jeffrey Goldberg gets a scoop (as he often does):

"When you have a majority of Americans, seventy-something percent, saying we shouldn't torture, then I'm not sure it helps for the Vice President to go out and continue to espouse that position," he said. "But look, he's free to talk. He's a former Vice President of the United States. I just don't see where it helps."

And then he got acerbic: Cheney, he says, "believes that waterboarding doesn't fall under the Geneva Conventions and that it's not a form of torture. But you know, it goes back to the Spanish Inquisition."

Repubs already jumping Cheney's sinking ship.

16. Meghan is on an inevitable trend to being an open minded liberal


As somebody who came from a Goldwater family I see all of the signs.
