Naturally a child will always believe a parent – remember the number of children that will not believe one parent had killed the other parent- saying that I think that Liz Cheney should be silent about the issue. Her father is a want to be warmonger (he has Never engaged in any form of military)

Okay Bess and State of Tennessee:

Obama is "bowing to the middle eastern leaders"? Really? Hmmm...so I guess Bush holding hands with them is better?

Probably not a good idea to release the pictures. However, the reason is probably not to denigrate US service persons but to let US citizens see clearly the evil perpetrated in their name by those in authority eg. Dick the Cheney.

Okay...since we are free to ask questions, then why isn't it okay to ask President Obama to release all of the memos. Wouldn't that be in the best interest of transparency? Oh, that's right, transparency only applies to Republicans. The hypocrisy of Democrats is unfortunate, but then it shouldn't surprise us. Remember the chant by the Clintons about the "politics of personal destruction"? That also only applied to Republican attacks and never to equally nasty Democratic attacks.

This is change we can believe in!!!

Your are right Liz. Tell them like it is. The libs can't stand to hear the truth. They would follow obama to h.e.l.l. because they don't know any better. Most of them don't know what they are talking about in the first place.

You say that waterboarding obtained vital information. If your being tortured wouldn't you tell them anything they wanted to hear regardless of the fact if it was true or not just to get them to stop? How does the U.S. have a leg to stand on when we try to convince other countries not to torture our own soldiers when we are doing the same thing. We want the rest of the world to be a democracy and be civil. Our torturing prisoners are great examples of civility huh?

The United States has a long tradition of our enemies surrendering to us because we treated them humanely. In WWII, surrendering German soldiers sought out American troops for that reason. By contrast, they knew surrender to the Russians would be worse than dying, so they fought the Russians to the death.

The Bush/Cheney torture policy has taught our enemies to fight us to the death. More civilians, more American troops - more people - will die because we tortured.

Just tell us, when will Cheney get what he deserves? He is a hate-filled, arrogant, extreemist who cares only for his own ego and wealth. Strip him of his ill-gained wealth – gained by creating a war that lined his pockets but that he nor his family had to make one single sacrifice. What evil lurks in that man's heart.

Dick Cheney is a terrorist....The man (and his family) don't give a hoot about the average American. He sent us into a war that we never should have started.

I am so sick to death of Cheney and his family. None of them are running for office so who cares what they think or say....every single time another Republican idiot opens their mouth I am more thrilled with my decision to vote Democratic....and I WAS a Republican!! Enough already, send Cheney hunting and leave it at that...

This family cries "wolf" too much. If anything were to happen during the Obama Administration, it would not be a result of anything this new administration did wrong. The Bush administration took actions but they caused more harm than good. Their tactics made America's enemies more emboldened and unfortunately more united. One could go on and on about this last administration but somehow the Cheney's comments still bombard us. Scare, scare, scare are their aims.

When Mr. Cheney is tried and convicted for war crimes, I hope he won't be treated in prison the way these detainees were treated.
As for siding with terrorists, Mr Cheney has done just that, by supplying terrorists with propaganda points which are impossible to refute.

The photographs should not be released, the discipline should be handled internally and changes made to policies all without interference from the media.

Showing these pictures will only hurt our troops abroad and paint a horrible picture of America to the rest of the world.

My goodness this is all so silly, but you have to love how all these things are debatable... till the next attack finally reaches America, then suddenly "the fashion show" isn't so trendy any more.

Maybe we should stop allowing people to see Holocaust pictures, we wouldn't want German soldiers to be seen in a negative light.
Maybe we shouldn't teach children about the Conquistadors, we wouldn't want the Spanish to feel bad.

i wonder how many of these liberals would be for all up in arms about this when the former detainees from Guantanamo Bay are their next door neighbors or worse yet looking to repear the 9/11 attacks?

Sweetie.... Your dad belongs in jail for crimes against humanity. If I were you I'd want to sweep his mess under a rug too. Cheap shots won't help though....

I believe she is right. Obama has ,since his first day in office, continually undermined the people of the USA, soldiers who fought to allow him to be President, and his obligation to the office and title that he holds, trying to please all other nations and downplay the USA.

If Obama would be siding with Terrorists he would pull out troops from Afghanistan and not enhance troops there to fight Terrorists.

Just because Obama is opposing Torture does not mean he is siding with Terrorists.

We, the people, have the right to know the TRUTH about what our government is doing. If Bush & Cheney did nothing wrong, then they shouldn't have anything to worry about with these documents and photo's being released. What I find sort of disturbing, is how quiet Bush is about all of this.

Chip off the ol' block. Didn't have anything to say when her daddy threw Gen. Powell under the bus! I think she doesn't want this baggage carrying her family name around forever and ever. A little late for that girly.
But at the end of the day, why are we still paying any attention at all to these folks? Little more than dust in the annals of history!!!!!!

Should we really care what she says–moreover, what she says on Fox? Why is this even worth reporting on? The Bush/Cheney deception about Iraq is clear as a bell, and now is the Obama group supposed to hide the truth of what was going on? Is the truth to be hidden? She has clearly learned from her father.

Dick Cheney, please, go away. Haven't you ruined so many lives with your utterly insane moves? And now we have to put up with you even more every day in this 24/7/365 media circus. What gall.

Liz Cheney, please, follow your father and go away too.

showing the truth seems a very, very, VERY long way from actually siding with terrorists.

is this yet another example of the far right distorting the facts by attempting to sensationalize what the obama administration is doing?

If bush/cheney had any concern for military personnel (1) they wouldn't have started iraq, (2) they wouldn't have authorized illegal torturing against Geneva conventions, (3) they would have done more to help injured vets upon returning to the states and (4) Mr. Cheney would have shown a bit of compassion, rather than commenting - when pointing out how many troops had been killed in iraq - that "they signed up for this" (the military).

Bush/Cheney had a private agenda for 8 years ... much to the great detriment to the general public.

They ALL - including Ms. Cheney - need to stop and listen to what WE THE PEOPLE are saying.

Remember during the Bush Adminstration, when we were told by Ari Fleischer to be careful about what we said? When we were reminded that to speak out against the president was unpatriotic? That asking questions are emboldening the terrorists? Now, you've got Cheney and daughter (and others) who do not hesitate to say the most despicable things about Obama and defend what happened during the last eight years. People who seem to say that while we waterboarded, that's not torture. Twisted logic, at best.

I think our country is always at its best when we feel free to ask questions, look critically at who are are and what we stand for, and then make corrections if necessary. If that's "siding with the terrorists" (whatever that means), God help us all. The years of fear are over, Ms. Cheney. With all due respect, the election sent us a different direction, and I believe you should just give the new administration a chance. Not in a million years could they do a fraction of the damage that Bush/Cheney did in eight.

It is bad enough the President is going from nation to nation on an apology tour but releasing the pictures is just wrong. Not only does it give me pause when thinking about the administration's sanity but releasing the pictures endangers the lives of all service men and women especially the ones in the pictures. More importantly it also endangers the lives of their families. What were you thinking Mr. President?!

Wow. Just when I thought the Cheney's couldn't get any more out of touch.

Keep it up Dick and Liz, You make me want to scream 'YES WE CAN' even louder...

love, an Obama American and loving it

The American military would not have been in a "negative light" if her father hadn't directed them to do the crime. She is an airhead and her father is an idiot if he thinks he's going to try and rewrite history.

We were not born yesterday. He's a criminal and everyone knows it.

Yesterday I heard him say "we are trying to....", instead of "we were trying to....." This man thinks he's still in office. He's crazy.

Liz Cheney is blinded by the fact that Dick Cheney is her father. She was on Morning Joe today and she was absolutely rude. The apple does not fall far from the tree.

The Cheneys are delusional when it comes to war. They start wars, promote wars, but never serve and do spend their time comforting or fighting for the benefits for those who have.

Cheney – Remember Walter Reed before the mid-term elections and the Democrats called attention to the filthy conditions and the lack of care that our brave men and women faced whent sent there.

How about our servicemen and women serving three terms? How about the wars that are killing people and have nearly economically broken our country? How about Blackstone? How about Haliburterton profits?

Why would any of us listen to Liz or Dick?

Okay, Liz. I think the last thing your father and the former President want is for "the American people to get the full picture of what went on."

That is when we'll all finally see that they sided with big oil and private business when they marched the military into Iraq, costing thousands of American lives – many more than were lost on 9/11.

We'll see the administration, creating false evidence of a weapons of mass destruction program in Iraq to justify a war that had been planned by radical conservatives years before Bush even took office.

We'll see that Bush/Cheney tarnished the American reputation when they authorized torture in violation with U.S. and International Law.

We will see that they looked the other way, while soldiers were abusing prisoners of war in Iraq, Guantánamo, and elsewhere around the world.

We'll get that clear picture of Osama Bin Laden, sneaking off to safety in the Afghan/Pakistan mountains, because our military was entrenched deep into a war in the wrong country.

Trust me Liz, America can't wait to get the full picture of what went on. The ends will never justify the means – no matter what information was yielded.

Yes, clearly it is the pictures that are the problem, not the fact that the abuses actually occurred.

There's no reasoning with sociopaths.

We should release the picks... Our country is not a Terroist Union and we should watch the way we behave... You idiots think the Terroist just woke up one morning and said we hate the U S... No.. We created an enemy and now we have at war when we didn't even have to be in this situation..... Now we are trying to make a mends...

Why is what any of the Cheney's have to say relevent? Apparently the WHOLE family subscribes to FEARMONGERING!! The American people voted for President Obama because we wanted change. We prefer to engage in negotiating with the rest of the world instead of needlessly declaring war on any and everyone who disagrees with us! I am sick to death of hearing from Dick Cheney and any of his clueless relatives. Really Cheney should be thankful he's not in jail and keep his big trap shut!!!

for the past 8 years I can't recall hearing much about or from Liz Cheney and all of a sudden you can't keep a camera or mike away from any of them. I think it's all a ploy to keep Americans from focusing on the REAL deal that Cheney is guilty and trying to cover it and has anybody in his circle cover for him. Only his far right supporters with his less than 20% approval rating seem to be falling for it.

Dick Cheney will always be the release of one torture tape away from a trip to the Hague. And I am sure someone, somewhere has one of those tapes, despite reports that they were destroyed. This misguided man, whose decisions destroyed his co-presidency with George Bush, and whose policies our own CIA said inspired more terrorists than they could capture or kill, has done untold damage to America's reputation. And the main reason he is speaking out is not for our safety but to save his skin, because, in his heart, he knows he is a war criminal, and that the long arm of the law will eventually get him.

Not surprising that she feels this way. Embarrassing for her father. What is surprising is why it is reported. And why we are supposed to care what she thinks. I'm sure my next door neighbor has an opinion as well, but I don't see any journalists.

I beleive all the soldiers in this illegal war should be water boarded along with dick Cheney and Bush. Every one of these soldiers committed attrocities on the Iraq people. You hateful blood hungry soldiers need to pay for what you did.

Ridicuous, If holding people responsible for their illegal actions is siding with terrorists then perhaps Liz Cheney needs a lesson in morality as well as terrorism tactics. She could probably use the morality lesson as her father surely isn't a role model for that. Contrary to what they Cheneys think we are not better off ofr using torture nor is the world a safer place because of it. WHen one person is tortured humanity as a whole suffers. Please Cheneys ride off into the sunset with whaT LITTLE DIGNITY YOU HAVE LEFT. Trying to repair America's reputation in the global community is not siding with terrorists. Bringing inot the light of day all of the things that the past administration kept in the dark is not siding with terrorists. And finally whiile Liz Cheney is entitled to her opinion and entitled to voice it normal people can just put it in perspective as the ranting and ravings of someone with no moral compass or upbringing. Be glad Liz that your dad has not been indicted. Both of you need to crwl back under the rock that you came out from under. And thank you CNN for allowing me to voice my opinion.

And this is the same administration that doesn't have a problem putting a needle into the head of a full term unborn baby and sucking its brains out. Torture? I think so. But to protect the lives of Americans, waterboarding is not allowed? Twisted minds with no common sense.

When the GOP was busy gay bashing in 2004, VP Cheney didn't even have the fortitude to stand up for his daughter. But now his own RUMP is in the cat-bird seat, this guy won't shut up.

I never saw Cheney during past few years...I thought he'd died and they had propped him in a corner somewhere. NOW, he decides it's time to talk to us. Go back to your dark little room, Dickie. We have had enough of your arrogance.

She should just be glad her father isnt facing charges for not only war crimes but treason

jcow May 12th, 2009 4:55 pm ET

If Barak or Michelle Obama ever comes to our base and says that they supports military families I will turn my back and walk away. Words are cheap, their actions speak much louder than their words.

Is that how you've been taught to address your commander in chief? You can't even spell his name right, for goodness sakes. Turn your back on your country, that's the kind of soldier we don't need!

"a very negative light?" What ever happened to personal accountability? Responsibility? All those other things that you right-wingers love to get sanctimonious about when it's not YOU getting busted doing something reprehensible? It is in NO WAY "siding with the terrorists" to hold criminals to account for their criminal action. They did it! It was wrong! They should pay!

Liz Cheney, I used to have a little respect for you, thinking you were a private individual in a rough position due to the identity of your dad-but no more. If you believe this crap you're talking, you're as much an amoral hypocrite as dear old dad.

"They seem only to be interested in releasing things that really paint American in a negative light and don't give the American people a full picture of what went on," she said.

The intent is not to paint Americans in a negative light, Ms. Cheney. It is to uncover the truth and show the american people how their previously elected government went rogue and violated the law. It is also to show the world that not all americans share your and your father's views of how America should conduct itself in times of crises.

The issue lies with the fact that holding the photos from the public constitutes siding with the soldiers and guards who abused the prisoners . I'm not siding with terrorists, by any means, but the public deserves the right to view the military as it is – not as a perfect system that it isn't. Again, don't get me wrong, every service man and woman has my utmost respect, but presenting only positive images of soldiers seems to propaganda-esque. Soldiers are people, and all people are not perfect, and we can't expect 100% of them to be either. We just have to trust that they are better than the rest of us.

The pictures do not show our service men and women in a negative light. It shows them following orders of the Bush Administration. They were ordered to torture prisoners and unfortunately that is what they did. Even more unfortunate is that some of these brave soldiers were demoted, convicted and jailed for these acts. All the while the leaders who ordered them to do this can go on TV and brag about having knowledge of the situations.

Cheney wants to have it both ways on this. They want you to show what we learned which would some how justify what they did- but they don't want you to know what they did. But the info- if it is valuable should remain classified or it loses it's value.

I also think this is a bluff- they know Obama will not release this for two reasons. If you release the valuable info it makes the country less safe- and also- there's probably not a lot of valuable info that came from the torturing. She can criticize knowing full well that info will not be released.

Who is she by the way again- what has Liz Cheney ever accomplished? Her father should be tar and feathered for what he did to this country. He's a first rate coward and liar.

Liz Cheney should be criticized as strongly for her comments that Pres. Obama is siding with terrorists as Wendy Sykes was for calling out Rush Limbaugh.

Both Cheneys are now proudly declaring before the world that they condon breaking national and international law!

Cheney contends that illegally torturing people saved perhaps 100 thousands of lives; if that were true I doubt that these amazing occurances would have gone unannounced.

Thus far Cheney has refused to testify under oath and in public so anything he says is so much hot air. It is also known that videos and other documentation has been destroyed.

Yes, heaven forbid the citizens of this country should actually see what happened!

wow i did not think i could casre less for an opinion from dick cheney but his daughter is more ignorant and irrelevant than he is. hope your dad goes to jail and gets tortured you twit

Then perhaps they shouldn't be doing things that PUT them in a negative light. It's rather sad that you, Liz, cannot think for yourself. Just going around spreading the same hate (with no truth or substance) begging people to listen to you. Pathetic.

A policy of systematic torture is a policy that not only puts you on the side of terrorists..it makes you a terrorist yourself..

We have (or should have) higher principles in this nation of ours

If you think for one nanosecond that either Cheney cares about the wellbeing of Americans then you are stupid.

Dick Cheney is facing jail time, and the more he flaps his pie hole the more desperate he feels his day of reckoning is coming. He thinks he can talk his way out of anything. Buh-Bye.

i say release everything... because you can never know who you truly are until you can see yourself clearly in the mirror.

the neo cons want to keep the glass foggy to all americans, while the world gets to see through clear eyes what the neo cons have turned our country into.. something most americans would not be able to stomach.

being honest is not siding with the terrorists,, however torturing is turning us into the terrorists.

get a clue.

Unfortunately, the release of information about what did go on tells us more about the abuse of power by the Bush administration with Dick Cheney's heavy involvement. I'm sure Liz doesn't want to have to explain to posterity why her dad was promoting illegal activity in the name of patriotism.

"If defenders of torture really think it worked — that it was worth the moral trade-off for the intelligence allegedly obtained from it — then stand up for that position. But don't try to pretend it didn't happen, which is apparenly what Ms. Cheney would prefer."

They're not pretending it didn't happen. In fact, if you had bothered to read the article, it stated that Cheney's daughter, like her father, is urging Obama to release the documents detailing the information that was obtained.

Yes, it's far better to hide everything we've done and look like hypocrites. Servicemen and women who've broken the law should be allowed to continue breaking the law just because of 9/11. I served in the air force for 12 years, and the idea that it's okay to abuse prisoners was never something that crossed my mind. I certainly don't appreciate the men and women who've done this, they've degraded the reputation of our armed forces worldwide, and the excuse of 9/11 is a poor one to suggest we should hide it from the public.

Perhaps we should take a leaf from the ex-vice president's own book and say that people who criticize a President in a time of war are being unpatriotic and anti-American.

Yes, he does side with terrorists.

What people do not understand is that the Left has such a pure hatred for Bush and Cheney, they are willing to jeopardize our national security to get their point across.

This family is not only dysfunctional but disturbing. Do they not get it? There is a reason why this man's popularity is less than 20%. Please pack up your arrogance and return to Wyoming.

Republicans continue the rhetoric "Obama is terorist". Fox News continues to talk about Ayers and Wright. How can they criticize Sykes for saying things about Limbaugh? She's a comedian, Cheney was Vice President of the United States. Republicans should know better.....

Liz who? What rock did she crawl out from under?

If it was so noble and helpful, why are you worried it will come out, daughter of a former VP?

Let's see all of the data and let the American people decide.

Obama picked this fight. By getting on camera and floating out feelers that he would be open to prosecuting Bush and Cheney, he brought on this war. Cheney is forced to publicly defend himself if Obama hints that he will be arrested. Also, Obama was forced to publicly admit the waterboarding got us vital intelligence after criticizing Bush for it, but uses a face-saving argument "we could have used other methods" not spelling out what those other methods are. Obama has egg on his face about Waterboarding. Obama shouldn't pick a fight he cannot win, and I agree with the Cheney's that Obama shouldn't publicly humiliate our troops on the national scene, then act like he supports them.

What is appalling is Bush and Cheney and their treatment of war prisoners wheather they were guily or not. And by the way, why don't Cheney and his family just go away.

Amazing Liz Cheney can have any relevance and claim to speak for America after all her father did to deprive us of our constitutional rights invoking 9-11 fear. Haven't the Cheneys used the 9-11 victims enough already. Liz certainly did not volenteer to go fight in Iraq for that "mushroom cloud" and WMDs her father promised us in Iraq. Oh yes, how much did his company Halliburton and Cheney earn off his phony cries of "Wolff"?Seems like Bush and Cheney need to be apologizing for the mess they made of our economy and the americans killed in their phony war, not to mention Iraqi.

Light is not positive or negative. Shedding light on a subject just makes it easier to analyze. The "aggressive interrogation techniques" used on prisoners at Gitmo and Abu Grahb was never to gain vital information that saved "thousands, perhaps hundreds of thousands of lives", as VP Cheney stated.

It was meant to punish and torture enemy combatants that had been rounded up and detained.

Timely and valid information can be got with sodium penethol in less than thirty minutes. Thirty days of waterboarding is torture.

Liz Cheney is upset that the records are subject to public scrutiny.
I guess I can understand her embarrassment.

Why is everyone so upset about the releasing of the Photos, Bush said it did not happen. So there is no need to look any futher.

And since when is telling the truth "siding with Terrorist"?

All Cheney needs to do is raise his shotgun, We all will fall in line.

Why are the words of these people reported. They have no credibility, and have lied for 8 very long years. I am still waiting for the capture of Bin Laden, the weapons of mass destruction. They have tortured put the USA into disrepute and after 8 years terrorism is still a threat and maybe a bigger one than before. Congratulations for a job well done are in order.

We do not want hear what these people say anymore, their opinions are irrelevant. The only news I want to hear about them is when they will be prosecuted for their crimes.

The photos don't show soldiers in a negative light. It shows torturers, law breakers, in a negative light. I think the only people who can't make that distinction are the ones who refuse to make that distinction for political reasons. People are able to tell the difference between the soldiers who serve honorably and those who tortured. The whole lot isn't spoiled by releasing these photos and being honest about the lawlessness the Bush administration embraced. America is not worse place for being honest about what we've done. It's a better place for trying to fix it.

Liz,
Because of your father, over 4300 men and women who swore to defend this nation and uphold her values are now dead.
He diobeyed the law. He tried to conceal his wrongdoing. He lied about intel and continues to deny even though we have a much better grasp of his crimes now.

You, like your father are a traitor to this country and a morally bankrupt individual.

Gee, I didn't know Liz sat in on these top secret briefings. Did Daddy sneak her in or just pass on classified information at the dinner table? How does she know what went on in these detention centers? How does she know it wasn't torture.

Liz Cheney should be in no position to offer up any more of an informed opinion than any other citizen in this country.

I don't think the Cheney family is scared. Sociopaths don't know when they commit crimes or atrocities. Where there is no conscience there can be no remorse.

"I think it is really appalling that the administration is taking this step," she said in the interview.

Hmmm...She is making it sound that publishing the pictures of the abuse are worse than the abuse itself.

Personally, I think it is appalling that the previous administration allowed the abuse to happen in the first place.

Too bad your dad and Bush ought to be locked up for incompetence.
Cheney is just a bitter old man. Who in their right mind is listening to anything the right wing extremists and zealots have to say anyway?
After what has taken place in this country the last eight years?
Now thats appaling

I think, after 8 years of the Bush and Cheney dog and pony show, that maybe Richard Nixon was not such a bad guy after all.

Hey Dick, how does it feel to be the new Nixon?

It's always about fear with these people. We are not so scared that we don't have values anymore, Liz. Quit hiding behind victims of terrorists. Quit hiding behind soldiers. Cheney chose the policy, the pictures simply show its implementation. If this shows the military in a bad light, it shows Dick Cheney in an even worse one. Did Bush really know what was going on?

Like Liz Cheney would know what the "real picture" was...and I really believe that military families and families of 9/11 victime are e-mailing and texting her...If it weren't for her father, we may have captured the mastermind behind 9/11 by now rather than be bogged down in Iraq. And by the way, if her father had his way, she would not be able to live her chosen lifestyle (lesbian)...

The more you repeat a lie, the more you're likely to believe it. Keep talking Liz. It was fortunate for you that Eugene Robinson is truly a gentleman.

The Cheney's are the PAST. I wish that the press would stop covering them. Republicans lost the election; they have no vision for the future; they ok'd torture; broke laws, shredded our constitution.Especially, Cheney – he's an evil, mean-spirited man that has no capacity for change. Can anyone imagine the thought/judgement processes of anyone that would choose Limbaugh over Colin Powell? Stop the coverage, please. No body cares......

Who cares what Liz Cheney thinks? Her father despoiled the reputation of America and wasted billions of dollars on a bogus war.

It disgusts me that the Bush/Cheney administration is the one that put soldiers in harm's way for an unnecessary war in Iraq that was underfunded and under-supplied, and now they're talking about who does and does not care about our military. Please. The Cheneys have done more to support terrorists and anti-American sentiment around the world than any family in memory.

Where do we "side with the terrorists"? This one confuses me. Is she saying that we shouldn't tell the truth if we feel it hurts our image? That whistle-blowing and moral integrity are un-american somehow? I suppose exposing Enron was siding with the terrorists, as that undoubtedly weakened our economy for some time...

If we didn't do this kind of thing we wouldn't have to worry about admitting it to the public/covering it up.

Explain why her opinion matters. This is difficult to do, especially when one consider's the Gene Pool from which she sprung.

Why are they so afraid of the truth. Releasing the pictures is not the issue. The fact that these actions were done is the issue. Don't you folks see that hiding the truth that this activity was done is worse than the act itself. The America I want to be a part of is rightous and just. America is founded on Justice For All. If some people need to get embarrased or punished for their crimes to fulfill that ideal, so be it. If you don't want our military to be embarrased by some bad pictures, guess what – don't let the military do bad things that can be photographed.

If anyone made things unsafe for American military members, it is her father, the war criminal and war profiteer Dick Cheney.

"OldUncleTom May 12th, 2009 4:51 pm ET

Maybe its just me, but it gets easier to see Dick Cheney as American as Charlie Manson. If you recall, a lot of people blindly followed Charlie off a cliff too."

Just like a lot of people are blindly following Obama.

Way to go, Fox News!!!!! Whatever would we do without this network giving these criminals a forum for their lies. It's bad enough we Americans had to put up with him for eight freaking years. Now we STILL have to see his stupid face on television and that of his kid, too?? When is it going to be the mother's turn??????

And your father did such a wonderful job for all of us Liz?
I'll take a little bit of Democratic diplomacy over Fascist torture any day of the week.

..."Clearly what they are doing is releasing images that show American military men and woman in a very negative light."...

Well, at least she has a discernment of what is negative ! But she has no clue that America is larger than ,even, her father's arrogant approach towards human rights. We have to "fix" these things up and the only way is to talk about it like the very old American way... Not to show how incompetent the last administration was is to allow it to happen again, we just cannot afford it !

Well, I think that the truth about what really is going on should come to the publics eyes. So what if the videos are being shown, Liz Cheney needs to shut her mouth talking all that crap and needs to realize what is truly happening!!!

So I guess the pictures just took themselves huh? Nobody wants to take responsibility for what's happening in the pictures, or for who authorized the activity. Nevermind the fact that somebody took pictures of it. Where is the responsibility? The accountability? Stop trying to blame this on Obama! He's siding with terrorists? How ridiculous do you sound. If this behavior was never authorized, if the behavior was never exhibited, if the behavior was never documented, then there would be nothing for Obama to approve or dissaprove! Get over it. Take responsibility and realize that some times you just get caught and you have to pay the price. Unfortunately, we will all pay the price for Bush & Cheney's illegal war.

I'd like to thank the Cheneys for reminding Americans why we hate & rejected Republicans. Every day. Keep up the GREAT work, guys!

The logic behind this statement seems to be as follows:

"Hear no evil, see no evil, speak no evil."

This same sort of logic could have been used to silence holocaust wistleblowers in Nazi Germany during WWII. A different order of magnitude, to be true, but we would surely deny that if pictures of SS forced labor camps had been available, the right and moral thing for the German government to do would have been to release them. Hiding wrongdoing because it could hurt the reputation of the wrongdoer is the same as giving the wrongdoer carte-blance to commit atrocities.

OK, so it's apalling to show these pictures but it's not apalling to actually do the deeds the pictures show. Is that right? She's a nut job just like her old man.

Oh please she doing the same thing her dad did and is still doing and you guys (media) is helping her along!!!!! This to must end!!! Noting but lies

Cliff Cantor said it well, but I would make it stronger: "It is time for the Cheney's to leave the country alone" – what about "It is time for the Cheney's to leave the country together "?

Ms. Cheney, these pictures are merely showing U.S. service men and women as they followed orders handed down by your father. Unfortunately, these orders happened to require the service men and women to commit felonies.

Support the troops?

No one has done more to destroy the readiness and morale of our military personnel – and their families – than Dick Cheney.

Oh please. We have to listen to what Li z Cheney says now? And for what reason? We finally have an intelligent leader and Liz Cheney says he sides with the terrorists? Why? Because Obama knows the difference between torture and defense?

I will trust Obama. I do not trust Dick Cheney. I do not value his daughter's opinion, although she has a right to voice it.

The shame is not on the President uncovering truth; remember, any good true Christian nows, what occurs in darkness (what is wrong no matter how you try to justify it is wrong) will come to light. If this administration has elected to side on the side of justice and truth, well who is really siding with the terrorists? I say if you are like them, in their practices and justifications, then YOU are really more of a terrorist.

Thank you Ms. Cheney, we can now add you to that list of unpatriots.

Talk about morally backward stances. Now we're okay with evil as long as nobody uncovers it, apparently.

If releasing photos of American soldiers engaged in these terribly negative activities is wicked and undermines our nation, what then are we to think of the officials who sanctioned and indeed actively encouraged the activities themselves?

GO OBAMA!

We have to face the truth, and people like Liz Cheney (what kind of man sends his daughter out to do his bidding? pathetic.) need to stop blaming the troops for her dad's evil WAR CRIMES.

Where were these people on and prior to 911, when Americans really needed to be 'kept safe'?

Cheney let America down on and prior to 911. And he's trying to cover his shame and incompetence. His puppet president, bush, doesn't even care to cover his ineptitude.

Father is delusional and daughter is definitely delusional.
How a man stay married to her we will never know? (Oh that's a female and not a man?) lol

Liz Cheney fears her Father may be prosecuted for his war crimes and she is trying to be vocal to defend him.
More than 4200 US Troops have died and 46,000 US Troops have suffered injuries, only because of Dick Cheney and Bush.
None of the 9/11 terrorists were from Iraq. Iraq was attacked for Bush and Cheney’s greed for Oil. Intelligence report that Iraq has WMDs was false and specially designed to mislead Americans for getting their support to go to war. Bush admitted this in his farewell address that Iraq intelligence report was a mistake.
If Obama would be siding with Terrorists he would pull out troops from Afghanistan and not enhance troops there to fight Terrorists.
What a misstatement by Liz Cheney. In fact she is trying to mislead Americans just like her Father did by misleading Americans about Iraq’s WMDs.
Dick Cheney is worst than Saddam and Hitler. Saddam and Hitler were responsible for killing others. Dick Cheney is responsible for the deaths of own countrymen (4200 Troops).

ms. cheney her father, and bush, won't have to worry about torture being done on their childern and grandchilder. as they won't be serveing in the military dear old dad and bush have shown them how to avoid the service.

Let's not release ANY documents or photos regarding interrogation by US Troops or Intelligence. And the flap about "water boarding", what a joke. Taliban or Al Qaeda extracts information by drilling holes in their prisoner’s heads with an electric drill. Those that were water boarded are still alive. Just like the US Troops who benefitted from the information extracted from these terrorists.

My 18 yr old son is thinking of enlisting in the US Army. Tell me, do these pictures make our military look good or bad in the world's eyes? If bad, then I think our fighting forces will be in more danger and have a more difficult mission no matter where they are deployed.

It's pretty clear who's DNA she got.
Why don't they get it? Pres. Obama isn't "siding with terrorists",
she is... her father.
I'd rather see him make a fresh start, then take it from there than just being pissed at everyone Bush/Cheany was... all of the time!

When all you can do for your party is to "wave the bloody shirt" and try and hide behind the backs of American military, as though your administration was good for them, you are really desperate. All you are doing is calling on deep, buried and irrational emotional emotions. You are saying a dictatorship would have been better because you would still be in power. Well, waa, waa, waa. And Obama is not a terrorist, but Cheney is a torturer.

WHy are the Cheney's "ALL OF A SUDDEN" coming out and voicing thier opinions? Funny how cheney kept her hidden for 8 yrs-but now he decides to open his big fat yapper and tell the world what he thinks? His daughter supported Obama during the campaign-so why all of a sudden is daddy-dearest forcing her to say negative things about him?

I think Cheney should go back to the hole he dug for himself and quietly slip into madness......

The GRINCH needs to go back to his cave atop Mount Crumpet !!

Well, I'm glad that she completely discredited herself in her own statement. No one who runs the White House could get away with citing or becoming friendly with terrorists. I'm George Bush came close when he chose to preserve his family oil company and relationships with Saudi Arabia after 9/11 and invaded Iraq instead.

And all of Haliburton's profits gained from infrastructure rebuilding and urban projects awarded by the governments in Afganistan, Saudi Arabia, and Iran and a number of other middle eastern countries -check their own website – (Dick Cheney still owns options in that company as a former CEO)

But, other than that any administration would probably not likely be able to get away with what Dick Cheney's daughter is saying. Then again, as the daughter of the first VP in history to possibly be forced to take part in an investigation for crimes against humanity by his own country, she's not a very reputable mouth piece for anything legitimate or unbiased.

Its appalling that the administration is releasing the photos?

I think rational people think its appalling that those acts were done.

Your Daddy's big mouth sparked this investigation... when he criticized our new President by delusionally suggesting he made our country less safe against terrorists unless leaders broke International laws like himself....

I guess he put his own "foot in his mouth"......

Hope too see the same photo gate come out when Obama is no longer in office. Hopefully we will not get the hole story to make his time as President the biggest joke this country has ever seen. Put it all out there and let the American people decide. Maybe we should have done like the enemy and just loped off there heads. You bear arms against our soldiers during battle you DIE!!!!!

That's right, Liz. We shouldn't show pictures of the torture your dad says didn't happen but also kept us safe.

I have to wonder how much any Cheney cares about our service people when they defend torture while we have troops in the field.

ZZZZZZ. Honestly, do we have to post, interview, and report on every single politician's children and what they all have to say as completely unqualified political experts? This is really getting old. Please stop turning the Political Ticker into the Hollywood Ticker for Entertainment Nightly...

Cheney Family stands for everything that the American society is NOT about. They are afraid that their outrageous acts will be revealed in day light. One thing is for sure, they cannot stop the wings of Truth.

Why are all these "daughters" coming out and speaking for their fathers? Seems like the Republican Party is trying to rebrand itself as being more youthful and forward thinking. They're also trying to influence young women to be Republicans. It's not a marketing issue. It's an issues issue!

Once again sour grapes.. What do we have to show after 8 years of Republicans in office?
The Cheney's should just fade into the backgroud like G Dubya

Hmm,
It seems that Cheney, Bush and his family believes their own myths and lies. I come from a country where the truth is more important than whether or not our actions are seen in a negative light. How about the notion of invading a country with no valid evidence?

The truth shall set you free, but first, it will piss you off...

If the interrogators and others followed the law and not the orders from "daddy" there would be no photos depicting Americans in a negative light to release now would there??!!! Give me a break. What gives the Americans the right to abuse or torture prisoners? You reap what you sow people!!

Great quotes and good points (except fizzed out in Texas) but one that really caught my eye was ... and I quote:

"If Cheney wanted these documents released, he should have released them under his own watch. "

Worth repeating so I will: If Cheney wanted these documents released, he should have released them under his own watch. "

"...a full picture of what went on."! That's understatement! The only reason this illegal war was started was because Cheney and Bush thought they would get financially richer from it and go down in history as justice fighters. What an abuse of power. Our soldiers didn't even know what they were fighting for. Terrorists were not on the loose in Iraq before this war, but they sure are now.

"negative light" How quickly she forgets that her father and his midget minded side-kick W. ordered thaoe otherwise honorable solders to do such things to their fellow human, terrorist or not. If seeing such immages stirrs a viserol reaction that reaction should not be focused on the solders depicted in those pictures but rather at the leader that ordered those solders to do those unspeakable things.

Following orders is not the crime; giving the orders is the crime. Both W. and Dick are War Criminals and should be treated as such, Maybe she can visit Dad in prison or better yet get a gallery seet in front of the gallows.

Of course she says these things. She and the other family members are afraid that eventually this whole torture thing is going to catch up with her father, and I for one hope it does. He should spend the rest of his natural life in jail. This family cares nothing about the American people and never did.

Like Governor/Wrestler Ventura said, "Mr. Cheney, if the techniques worked so good, Why don't we have Bin Laudin?"

So why are we still listening to any of this family's members regarding the past offenses to humanity and saying that it's OK? Wasn't this country founded to prevent injustice from happening? In whose judgement is hurting "anyone" for "any reason" really OK? I leave it to others to judge that, but I don't think torturing anyone, so that I and my family can sleep at night, is justified. I think there are other ways......perhaps by establishing a peaceful relationship with others? Hmmmm, I'm just sure that continued escalation of violence isn't going to get this done right. So who cares we're releasing the photos, they were seen in the news in the past anyways. Let's get past this atrocity and learn from it.

Yes, RELEASE EVERYTHING. Let Americans choose for themselves. Then again, most liberals can't handle the truth.

I'm just appalled at how much print and air-time these people are getting, It shows how the media are in bed (embedded) with our politicians. The father's a criminal, and the daughter's a 'knowbody'. It would be better to ask the opinions of 'people on the street', than ththe self-serving opinions of a discredited opinions (And why don't the media have the guts to say that 'waterboarding is torture, as we prosecuted Japanense for it. Period! What a gutless lot!)

It appears that the Cheney's are throwing the political spin machine into full swing knowing that the justice department is eyeing the incredibly illegal activities that occurred in the Vice President's office the last eight years. Whether anything is done to Dick Cheney on the legal front for his attacks on decency and the American Constituiton is one thing, but using his daughter to insult the intelligence of the American people is another.

Liz Cheney can keep her suggestions to herself. The American people are well aware of what went on the past 8 years. President Obama is the new commander in chief and he doesn't take orders nor suggestions from the Cheney gang. Remember the Abu Ghraib photos of torture and prisoner abuse under the Bush/Cheney administration? Need I say more?

It is appalling that considering what her father did to this country that Cheney's daughter would dare open her mouth about ANY ONE. Her father is a criminal and should be tried for war crimes. I think they know that and that is why they are deflecting all the ugliness that is starting to seep out about the 8 years of the Bush/Cheney regime onto this administration. And what is the relevance of anything the Cheney's have to say? At least Bush is smart enough to keep his mouth shut.

dick cheney is a very dangerous man. he likes to do the thinking for all america....whats best for us. that means seceret torture, seceret biohazard disposal, seceret weapons, seceret, seceret, seceret.
i hope he retires never to be seen again.....and his daughter too

It's unfortunate we have cowardly dirt bags in america's citizens that would pursue the use of torture, forfeighting what many of our veterans have died to protect. When you have no guts and you have no honor and you have no integrity, and you are a complete moron incapable of protecting america (as witnessed the morning of September 11th), you turn to the notion that torture is acceptable.

This is NOT your home...we are the home of the BRAVE...not the cowardly, terrorist tactic enforcing failures. Cheney and those who advocate torture are the most vile and cowardly forms of americans I have ever had the displeasure of knowing!

What exactly is this woman's role in the political arena? Why are we now hearing from her every other day, when the last 8 years there has been not a peep? I for one amd tired of this little girl shooting her mouth off, saying unintelligent comments and acting surprised when someone dares to question her credibility. Seriously...find a new person to victimize.

Liz, it is about accountability and responsibility, if people got out of hand and made bad decisions, they need to pay for them... no one is above the law... you are being so hypocrate about this... it really is un-becoming...

So, showing what the military is actually doing is a terrible thing? My brother is in the military, served in Iraq, and no - he would never have abused these people in that fashion.

But it does happen everyday...we are just supposed to look the other way?

Dick, Liz, Whoever Cheney: Go home, live a good life, and stop talking to the rest of us. We don't want to hear a word you have to say.

It's called truth. Liz. Your husband created more terrorists than we can count. And BTW, he's a war criminal.

These reports are part of history and history is showing the Bush/Cheney Administration as being reckless and overly aggressive in their tactics (all mostly called for by Cheney – let's not fool ourselves...). Now Cheney and his family want to re-focus the blame for his bad behavior. Torture was banned with the Geneva Conventions for a reason – it is not a reliable tool for intelligence gathering. The Cheneys are simply unhappy and scared with the way that history is going to portray them – arrogance has no limits. Please go back to Wyoming and stay, Cheney Family!

Liz Cheney is correct. Of course Obama sides with the terrorists. Didn't you all realize that when Acorn solicited you to vote for him? I don't recall Bush or Cheney ever bowing down and kissing the hand of the king of a Islamic state while representing the people of the United States.

Ah please!

but then again that is the price to pay for freedom of speech and it does shows us how tolerant we have to be towards that freedom even if all we can say is ah! please!

People and government supports American military families but in no case do people and government can support negative light if such negative ligths deminishes our values and principles and in fact increases anti american sentiments.

Dick Cheney supports torture because of the results it got us. So when John Mc Cain denounced his country under torture that was the truth? When American GI'S in Korea denounced their country they were telling the truth? During World War II when allied soldiers denounced their countries they were telling the truth? My president maybe a foreign born, muslim, fascist, socialist, who pals around with terrorists but he never renounced his country the way our American Heroes did.Oh they were heroes? And the people we water boarded told the truth just like our soldiers and now they are heroes in their countries. Elitists like Cheney should be waterboarded until they lose their sense of entitlement.
P.S. Thanks Dick I bought Halliburton at $22 where did you get in?

Just because Bush and Cheney may have done unsav ory things during their administration doesn't make everything Obama does right for the country.
Obama is wrong in this matter aas he has been in so many others.

Can the Cheney's just shut up? I am tired of those rightwing nuts speaking out. They have no record at all to support there neocon bullmanure.

We have already seen despicable pictures of what happened at Abu Grhraib and some low ranking soldiers went to the brig. Bush and Cheney should be brought up on war crime trials for acts against humanity.

Liz Cheney – you are just like your dad -angry. get over it. I was angry for eight years while your dad played co-dictator.

Obama/Biden 2012

As a former military officer, I am embarrassed about the abuses that took place and praise President Obama for shedding light on these pictures. Perhaps it will prevent future Presidents and military officials from making these war-crime mistakes again.

Hey Fitz in Texas....and Lizzy dear....you are right he is... he does... he always has what's to make a fuss over....
How do you spell terror? A terrorists knows where he stands!
Millions think you are on the mark!

I agree a liberal just cannot win this war. Obama doesn't have the sack to do what must be done. He and Clinton are already bowing down to the Taliban and investigating our military for supposed civilian casualties during air strikes.....makes us look guilty

In her interview Monday, Cheney also echoed recent calls from her father for the Obama administration to release classified documents detailing information yielded from the aggressive interrogation techniques since denounced by the president.

Just like her daddy...she thinks the ends justify the means.
It should read;

...to release classified documents detailing information yielded from torture techniques...
I mean at this point can they at least call it what it was.

I guess whebn you discover that your dad is Satan, it can be a hard thing to come to terms with.

Wow, just wow...

Ok, I will be honest, I thought Liz Cheney was better than this. I believe that she is an intelligent woman but voluntarily bathing in her father's corruption is just stupid. Her Electra Complex must be serious if it is now overriding common sense. The fact that she has to go out and defend her father by attacking the president makes him seem more guilty while making it look like she knowingly supported his crimes.

Trying to keep Dad from being hauled before a tribunal at the Hague?

Who??? Who is Liz Cheney? The daughter of the guy that should be at supermarket openings? Why is this news?

I am so very tired of the fear mongering being done by the Cheney's and the GOP. If everything was above board, why, oh why, are the GOP so worried for it to all come out? For eight years now, this party has kept the country in fear, in hate, and in divisiviness. ENOUGH already.

Why does the media continue to give them a forum to spew their lies? Only the 18% and Fox and Joke Scarborough are with them. Oh, and that fossil Pat Buchanan who is still living in the past.

That's FORMER vice president Dick Chenny, and who cares what she thinks? What makes her an expert? Can't she just go duck hunting with her dad and be gone? Why can't all aspects of this former administration just GO AWAY!

as long as Obama keeps bowing to mideastern leaders and showing a submissive attitude, then maybe america and american's will be safe from terrorists. perhaps that is his plan.

Yes. I see her point. The problem is not that the United States used torture. The problem is that the Obama Administration is being honest about it.

If defenders of torture really think it worked - that it was worth the moral trade-off for the intelligence allegedly obtained from it - then stand up for that position. But don't try to pretend it didn't happen, which is apparenly what Ms. Cheney would prefer.

The era of the Bush-Cheney cover-up is over. Americans have a right to know what was done in our name, allegedly for our safety. Dick Cheney avidly classified everythign he could while vice president. Then he called for the administration to declassify more documents related to his administration's torture policy. Now he (and his defenders) are objecting to the release of more information. It is so baldly political it would be laughable if he was not actively trying to undermine the current administration, and thereby undermine America's security and well-being moving forward.

Enough of Cheney and his defenders. I hope he enjoys his First Amendment right to free speech, despite his utter disdain for so much of the US Constitution. I also know that most American's will exercize their right not to be told what to think by the architect of a failed administration.

I didn't even know Cheney had a daughter? Since when does her opinion matter? Why didn't she open her mouth when her father allowed US service men and women to be "cast in a negative light" as she put it. In my opinion, releasing the photo's does not put soldiers in a bad light, but ordering them to torture foreign citizens does.

Iraq became a huge worldwide recruiting tool for terrorism after Bush and Cheney illegally attacked it despite its having nothing to do with 9/11, and now Obama's siding with the terrorists? No wonder the Republicans lost the last election and are scrambling to save themselves. The party of Lincoln are now the party of warmongering, cowardly, two-faced, double-talking liars.

Wait a minute, releasing photos of soldiers abusing prisoners is showing the military in a negative light, but ORDERING the soldiers to actually PERFORM the abuses is somehow NOT negative?

So let me get this straight:
Actually doing the abuse: positive light.
Showing pictures of the abuse being done: negative light.

Bush and Cheney need to settle their affairs and hire themselves good lawyers, cause they're gonna need them soon.

Liz would have America lose its self-respect and integrity in an effort to save our image. What does our image matter if we can't look at ourselves in the mirror?

The interrogations (aka atrocities) commited during the Bush/Cheney administration have done more to harm the American image than anything else in the past 30 years.

Nothing pains Cheney and his supporters more than the idea of America returning to its ideals of transparency in the government. After years of tearing apart the constitution and violating both American and international laws, these neo-cons have a warped sense of reality. But as a democrat I am perfectly fine with these absurd comments by Cheney's daughter, as they will only alienate more moderate and independent voters from the GOP.

by all means, lets just "cover up" any sign of our own wrongdoing! you naive little twerp! The only way to come out of a scandal with a clear conscience is to denounce the bad behavior, admit that a mistake was made, change and move on..would you prefer we just not ever talk about anything bad and stay happy and smily all the time when dealing with foreign policy? God help us if you ever run for office..my my..

What people do not understand is that the left has such a pure and passionate hatred for Bush and Cheney, they are willing to jeopardize national security.

And who will be on the wrong side of the stick when this blows up in Obama's face? Innocent Americans.

Huh? Wha-? I fell asleep and for a moment, I had this dream that the daughters of very important men thought that we gave a crap what they think. Must have been a bad dream.

is it just me or does everything the Republicans say and do now, Democrats were being called "traitors" and "un-American" for saying when Dumb and Dumber (Bush & Cheney) were in office? i wish Republicans would just go away already! and take the Cheneys and Rush with you! our country will be much better off without all of ya'll!!!!

......and if your dad would shut up!
All this would not be necessary...
Girl, It's called REALPOLiTIK

It's called "personal responsibility" Ms. Cheney. You know that concept you republicans tout at every turn but never seem to act on? We did it. Own up and take responsibility not display blind alliegance to any action done by the US just because it was the US. We
CAN be wrong you know? Things aren't only wrong when someone other than a Republican does it.

I just spent the last three days grading essays for an undergraduate class on the Holocaust. I would ask Ms. Cheney just when it is appropriate to release photographs? Is she suggesting that we ought to always say "My country, right or wrong?" If so, it seems to me that we'd be doing something awfully similar to Nazi Germany.

that's alright Liz.

Al Qaeda puts out those photos too but they call it,

"RECRUITMENT".

It'll be a sad day when we all tell the liberals we told you so when it happens again. Those idiot democrats who fail to learn from history will be doomed to repeat it. I just hope not in my city again.

Darth has brought his daughter into the ways of the Dark Side it looks like. I suppose he thinks that she can maybe have similar results as Meagan McCain did. She has to pick up on the credibility factor though (just like her father – the Sith Lord).

It's sounds like his whole family has a mental problem. She is insignificant, out of sight out of mind. The whole family needs to get a clue and just shut up!

Is anyone really surprised that the daughter of the man most responsible for the violation of National and International Law would denounce the honest admission of the truth? How can we, as a nation, claim to support honesty and integrity and hide behind a wall of lies and deceptions regarding the maltreatment of prisoners of war?

Remember, Ms. Cheney, what goes around does indeed come back around.

Dick Cheney, by vote of the electorate, is now an irrelevancy to Amerca. Although he recently popped out of his hiding place, who cares about the pot shots he frequently aims at Obama. Regrettably, through no act of her own, Cheney's daughter was connected to the past administration and is now equally as irrelevant. It is time for the Cheneys to leave the country alone.

The apple does not fall far from the tree. The Cheney's are living in fear – not of terrorism but of what might befall the patriarch when the skeletons of the past come out of the closet to haunt the living daylights out of them.

she right obama does not care about this country sercuity and wants too cut budgets except for his social programs were he can spend trillions he wants too tax every thing he can. he wants too ruin this country and now i see he is a european socialist

The Cheney's are really pushing the envelope like the Bush adm. did before and when the Iraq war started. Pushing the FEAR factor again so to scare the American people again...into believing that the conservatives are the ones that are correct with their hypocritical beliefs. What gaul the have after leaving this country in such shambles...with two wars and economic woes. I don't understand why so many people are agains prosecuting the Bush adm., they must be prosecuted for the good of the country and our children's legacy.

This is why the GOP will never rise up again. If the party is filled with racist, idiotic, and pathetic individuals like Liz Cheney, then how can they ever hope to come back in US politics? Saying that the President supports terrorists is not only wrong, it is disrespectful to the POTUS and the families of those who were killed by terrorists. shame on you, Liz Cheney.

We need to send ex vicepresident Cheney back to his secure undiclosed location, and take his family with him.

I am so sick of the Cheney crew ! please, no more of their lunacy. what would you expect Liz Cheney to say?

The fact that torture works does not make it right. Americans should be able to be proud of the work our government does for us and not feel shamed because torture is done in our name. I am relieved to have a president who pulls back the curtain to show what is being done in the name of all Americans. Communication leads to respect and respect will get you much farther business than bullying will.

You can tell this gal is chip of the shoulder of Dick. I think the american people have the right to know what went on with the torture deal that her father engaged in. I think they all need to be proscuted to the fullest degree. I wonder if Liz will go visit pops when he is looking through the jail bars..

The apple doesn't fall far from the tree. In this case, it happens to be a Nut Tree.

The only person more irrelevant than Dick Cheney is his daughter. Why in the world would anyone care what she thinks? Your father was part of the worst administration in American history. Your party lost because it has become so radical that mainstream America doesn't support you anymore. Get over it!

Did Dick Cheney really share top secret information from the top secret memos that he wants to be released with his daughter, Liz? Otherwise how would she know what's in them as she claims to know?

How does Liz make a living? Who pays for her to fly around the country and give her opinions?

Does Dick Cheney still oppose gay marriage even though his daughter is gay?

Just shut up already. The Cheney's need to go home. What ungracious pigs. Aren't these the same people that got all bent out of shape when the Dixie chicks said "sorry" to an English audience?
"Siding with terrorists"? Are you kidding me? This is no way for Americans that say they love the country to act. Disrepectful camera hounds.

If the TRUTH is all it takes to destroy America, then honest people will admit that America does not deserve to exist. Of course, I don't believe that the truth will destroy America.

It might destroy Cheney, though.

Anyone who objects to truth being aired does NOT love America. They just like to say so.

These are not portrayed in a negative light. They are being portrayed accurately, its just the negative nature of the action performed that make them look so bad. Is Liz Cheney suggesting that these things be swept under the rug?

a) Dick Cheney is a FORMER Vice-President
b) his daughter has obviously inherited his talent(?) for mindless rhetoric.

This is totally OFF THE WALL! Of course, I would expect Darth Vader's daughter to echo his sentiments.
What part of ILLEGAL & IMMORAL TORTURE do you not understand???????!!!!

Liz Cheney...any relation to ex-Vice President Cheney who sanctioned torture, shredded the Bill of Rights and violated the Constitution of the United States? That Cheney? Hmmm. So we have a President who is willing to talk to our enemies and attempt to find some method other than wasting precious American lives, versus a home-grown terrorist who spent 8 years in hiding somewhere, pulling President Bush's strings, and did more to distroy the American way of life than any foreign terrorist.

I'll take the President and Administration willing to talk, please.

This woman and her father are about as bad as the terrorist they speak of. It amazes me that the media gives some much credence and to what she says. Who is she- what expertise does she have other than campaigning for her crooked father?

Dear Liz,

What daddy Dick's doing now is to build a case for his defense so the judges in the Hague have some compasion, otherwise, he will tried, found guity of war crimes and meet the same fate as Saddam Hussein.

Maybe she's a little worried about daddy being charged with war crimes? Like maybe the abuses, torture, and other violations of the Geneva Conventions from Abou Ghraib to Guantanamo and other "secret rendition" locations were indeed "systemic" and ordered from the highest levels of the Bush administration.

The main reason we don't have a "full picture of what went on" is the self serving secrecy of Bush, Cheney, Wolfowitz, Addington, Perle, Feith, Rice, and the rest of the Bush administration NeoCONs who were trying to make "their own reality".

Cheneys are striking back hard because they know dick is on his way to jail. Put him behind bars where he belongs.

So when the germans and japanese torture then it is torture and we try them out and put them in jail.

When the americans do it then it is not?

America has become a joke. Unless America and deal with its crimes and sins as it preaches for those of others America will be nothing more than a caricature of its former self.

With the repeated financial crises of 1994, 1998, 2001 and now 2008 – all MADE in AMERICA – America is fast loosing its financial supremacy.

This kind of close minded and blatantly IDIOTIC behavior will make it totally irrelevant.

Not to different from how the French and British empires went down.

So self-correct or become irrelevant is the message which the republicans (or the southern party of USA) does NOT get.

Umm...if we are releasing photos of them in a negative light, then perhaps they shouldn't have been doing anything illegal in the first place? Investigating the Bush/Cheney era is like lifting a rock and watching all the cockroaches scatter for cover. I suppose the best thing is to keep going with the illegal torture, and cover it all up indefinately?

um, i am wondering how you can paint anything that happened with detainees in a positive light?
i think Liz Cheney is walking a fine line here – insinuating that the president is treasonist by siding with terrorists?
is this outburst something similar to "keeping up with megan"?
c'mon now – her father is one of the most vicious and aggressive perpetrators of terror on the planet – and even those of us 'regular american citizens' were being wiretapped and searched.
in fact, people under his watch are now speaking out about just those things.
citizenship under bush/cheney was modern day mccarthyism, all wrapped up in pseudo patriotsim.
oh, and if Cheney and Bush TRULY cared so much for our guys in uniform, they would:
1. not have manufactured a war for profit and LIED to our guys about why they are over there – STILL – how many days since Bush declared "Misson Accomplished" on the aircraft carrier?
2. found a contractor who could wire the bathrooms so not to shock and kill our troops;
3. given our troops proper equipment, body armour, door locks, etc., rather then have the FAMILIES purchase and send these things...
i could go on.
i swear, it must be something in the water with these republicans and their offspring; to be so far away from reality.
clearly (to use Liz Cheney's words), she knows not of what she speaks.

Aww, I guess she's all mad that it's coming out that her father is a war criminal.

And what about the reason behind the photographs? How can we [i.e. Bush administration] say that we are fighting against terror and let torture happen? Maybe if the Bush-Cheney team didn't torture, there would be no dirty laundry for President Obama to air out. This is just another example of how out-of-touch the current leadership of the Republican party is. Liz Cheney standing up for her father and for torture. Republicans, the party of torture! Obama should release every single document the CIA and gov't currently has classified regarding torture and/or any legal justification the Bush-Cheney team forced the Justice Dept to come up with – afterall, isn't the Justice Dept, i.e. justice system, supposed to be non-political? This is the crudest and more blatant example of Bush-Cheney power-grab. I'm happy the American people get to see what their government was doing the past eight years in the name of "liberty, freedom and democracy." Democracies don't torture, autocracies and dictatorships do. Which side are you on?

As a resident of NYC on 9/11... I'd like to ask Ms. Cheney to stop talking. Or at least speak on issues she actually knows something about.

She is terrible just like her horrible father. I think the repubs think maybe putting her out there will get traction BUT...IT WON'T. The defense of Cheney is dispicable and his daughter is now dispicable. I actually hope they keep talking, that will ensure a re-election of Obama!

what? I should care what the daughter of a former vice president (a lousy one at that) thinks why?

I'd have to agree with Obama. I'd rather have him release the pictures than try to cover them up. I believe it is something that we, as a nation, should acknowledge, and try to move forward. No, we're not proud of how we acted, but I think it'd be more shameful to try and hide them. It's called healing and moving forward.

Really Liz, it's appalling? You mean compared to your father lying us into a war that we didn't need to fight, where thousands of soldiers died and were wounded? Telling the truth is appalling? Wow!

I love how they keep calling for Obama to release the documents showing what we obtained from the torture. Isn't that the same as saying "THE END JUSTIFIES THE MEANS"???

Some one should tell her that if the full picture of what went on was releases that they would have to immediately arrest her father. There is no doubt good info came from these interrogations, however you have to wonder how much it changed our strategy in Iraq. After all, we ended up putting the local Iraq militia groups on the payroll for peace.

Moderate Democrat- you need to re-read the article. The comments were made by Cheney's daughter, not his wife.

Liz take your Father & go away!!!! constantly bashing the new the administration is not helping the GOP! The election was months ago, the inauguration 100+ days ago, You lost the election & now you appear to be losing your mind, things are going to far at this point, I've never really seen anything more pathetic in Politics than the current state of the GOP!!!

Yes, much better to cover up this stuff, sweep it under the carpet and pretend it didn't happen, and won't again.

Right, so the President should refuse to abide by a court's ruling ordering the release of the photographs? I guess the rule of law doesn't apply in the Cheney world.

It is okay for Liz and her pappy to say Obama is siding with terrorist, but it is not okay for Wanda Sykes to say what she said about Rush Limbaug? This is hypocrisy at its best. If she is suggesting POTUS is siding with terrorist, she is saying he is committing treason. I am sick of the Cheney's and I applaud Wanda Sykes for what she said!

I'd suggest she take a look closer to home.

The fact that Cheney knows what is in the unreleased torture memos, proves that he was directly involved in monitoring the program. Why has he not been arrested yet?

The Cheney family has an odd take on world events, civil liberties, and the freedom of information act. Time and again they have voiced their contempt for for the wishes of the general population of this nation with attacks on the current administration, the media, and historic friends of the US. During the time Ms Cheney's father was working to keep the US safe from freedom if anyone voiced opposition to the Bush/Cheney regime's machinations they were branded "traitor", "militant", and several other choice terms.

I support Ms Cheney's right to free speach but I find her platform an arguments laughable.

Just like her father: didn't have anything useful to say when they were supposed to speaking, and now, you can't shut them up. Who cares about what she or her father has to say??? Let's talk about Cheney's conflict of interest with Haliburton, and how he's not in court for that!

The photos doesn't portray the servicemen in a negative light. It portrays Bush and Cheney in a negative light. Pass the buck, eh!!

I wish all the Cheney's would move out of this country as they are all traitors and anti American. There is nothing worse than a talking Cheney. Would someone stop asking them questions??!!

Great day! These two related mouth pieces need to go quietly into the night. Dick and daughter Liz are upset because Dick's TRUE legacy is being revealed right along with the puppet he controlled, George W. Bush!!! Of course they have plenty to say now, their REAL image is being revealed.

Interesting comment from Liz. Protecting DADDY? Proves the apple doesn't fall too far from the tree.

Uh, you know, leaving behind 5 trillion dollars for taxpayers to pay, is siding with the terrorists.

To Liz Cheney and her draft dodging father two words SHUT UP. Obama is pulling back the veil on Republican hypocracy. You and Daddy, like the vampires you are can't stand the light. Your father is a domestic terrorist, how about that, he's hoping for another attack just so he can justify inhuman acts against others, none of these people at Gitmo have been tried and sentenced in the 6 years they've been captives. Since you see nothing wrong with it how about we send anyone named Cheney who gets on tv again off to siberia for the next 6 years without charges and see how you fare. Enjoy your Halliburton trust fund and SHUT UP.

Again.....WHY...is CNN spending so much time and effort to make sure we know what Cheney, his family and his co-cospirators have to say???? Is it just to fill up the 24 hour news cycle with controversy and he said/she said???

Everything Dick and his like-minded cohorts have to say has been totally discredited. He has been wrong about every issue!!

CNN >>> Leave it alone until the war crimes trials begin.

Would somebody please tell all the Cheneys to shut up! Bush and Cheney did their best to destroy this country during the last eight years. They should just go away now and let us try to put the pieces back together.

And we need to care what Liz Cheney thinks ... why? Are we next going to be seeking advice on national security from Jenna Bush or the Obama daughters?

They wouldn't be in such a "bad light" if your father and Bush didn't place them there.

If Barak or Michelle Obama ever comes to our base and says that they supports military families I will turn my back and walk away. Words are cheap, their actions speak much louder than their words.

"They seem only to be interested in releasing things that really paint American in a negative light and don't give the American people a full picture of what went on," I'd say the release of those photo's filled the picture that the former administration refused to paint. Where are those weapons of mass destruction again???????

The release of partial inforation was only POLITAL.

Blame the messenger why don'tcha, Liz? Talk about screwed up priorities! I don't think I'll be voting for you any time soon! Oh, right...

If the pictures 'show American military men and woman in a very negative light' it's because they show men and women doing what the Military Penal Code FORBID them to do.
And what exactly Ms. Cheney (and all neocons for that matter) sugests that he should do? DENY THAT IT HAD HAPPENED??!!!
Just a clue, that would be 'obstruction of justice' and 'perjury'.

Who cares what Liz Cheney thinks? I don't (and I'm a Republican).

"Vice President Dick Cheney"? How about: "Former Vice President Dick Cheney"? Or, to keep it simple, how about: "Mr. Irrelevant" ?

Two peas in a pod.....Birds of a feather......Chip didn't fall far from the block......Like father like child.......Pencil broke. - that's all she wrote....Nothing new......Bad vibers.....All the king's horses and all the king's men could not put Humpty together again.....Oh the tangled webs we weave, when first we practice to deceive........This has been a DLLC production.......

Why do I care what she has to say? Because she is the daughter of a former VP? How about interviewing people who are actual experts on things and not "famous" because of their parents.

Sounds like a case of "please dont send my daddy to prison".Let the chickenhawk do his time if and when it comes.He deserves everything he gets.

The Cheney's are disgusting, it seems that they only talk about points that support their argument and not the whole truth. Also why does this article claim that what happened at those prisons, in photos and reports, are 'alleged' abuses. The senate committee report said that waterboarding is torture. Yeah Obama released the photos, many people are saying that the information was bound to be released anyway. The people who are ashamed by this chapter should be ashamed–it is shameful behavior–this is not an indictment on the entire armed forces only on those who did the bad deeds. Again the big question that Lynn and Dick seem to avert is whether or not we could've gotten the same or better information using other techniques and not torture. The answer is yes according to many experts. Everything about this war was false, from the arguments leading up to it; to the information we got from the "enhanced interrogation techniques"

Which is worse? Siding with terrorists, or religious zealots?

The Cheneys are anti-truth and anti-justice.

Which is worse? To cover up and not admit that we tortured prisoners or to cover up and not admit that our civilian leaders authorized this abuse.

I fail to see how one is siding with terrorists when they are simply putting the truth out there. It is obvious that Liz is a liar like her dad and his side kick George Bush (both). I still feel Tricky Dick and Karl Rove were the ones in charge and not George. Now they can't help but run around and continue to try and cover up the many wrongs they did to the American population as well as the international community. It will take many years for us to recover as a country because of the total mismanagement inflicted by the Bush/Cheney/Rove clan. These three people drove us backwards by 20 years in 8 years. Good riddance.

She is no smarter than her father!!!!!!!!

Apparently the Cheney family is a criminal enterprise and not just one rogue individual . Obama does care about military families. What he dosen't care about is criminals. That is what the people who performed and approved these acts are. I believe Cheney falls into that catagory. For this airhead to suggest that criminals acts shold not be brought to light is a continuation of the monarchy Cheney and Bush tried to create when they were in office. Someone should tell this bubblehead that this is a democracy and that the government answers to the people and the people have a right to know.

Liz Cheney,
I guess you're too dumb to realize the United States prosecuted Japenese offficials for waterboarding American POW's during World War 2 for violating the International Laws against waterboarding within the Geneva convention. And eventhough the Japenese illegally used those tactics against us......who won that war ??? It's the principle of International law.....
Get an education before you "open your mouth".

Ya releasing photos of the results of bad decisions over the course of a decade is a terrible idea. Of course the decision to actually do the bad things depicted in the photos/memos/etc are perfectly ok.

It's like an arsonist being mad at the fire department for putting out a fire and then blaming the fire department for their methods.

Just what we all need ... another daughter-father team of talking heads ... aren't Meghan & John McCain enough?

Ms Cheney...you are a nut case just like your worthless father! When you said, "They seem only to be interested in releasing things that really paint American in a negative light and don't give the American people a full picture of what went on" it was enough to make a person throw up.

Like ignorant father, like ignorant daughter.

Maybe its just me, but it gets easier to see Dick Cheney as American as Charlie Manson. If you recall, a lot of people blindly followed Charlie off a cliff too.
I'd like to see this issue make it into the court system, for the good of the country's reputation, whether any convictions result or not. It is the process that is important, the "rule of law".

Perhaps if Ms. Cheney's father hadn't permitted and probably encouraged the illegal interrogation techniques, there would be no photos to be released. Releasing these photos is not casting a bad light on the service men and women, but on those who gave them their orders. Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, etc.
This is ridiculous – like setting a house on fire and then blaming the firefighter for telling people it was arson.

The Republicans could say that every single Muslim in the world is a terrorist and that would be argument enough for the red sweatshirt Palin Mob of Christian bigots and conservative isolationists; who wouldn't know any better.

Another fine example of "Cheney Rhetoric – 101"

Could it be that they both know that the documents they want released can NOT be released for National Security reasons and that by continuing to insist that they be released it is their hope that it will make Obama and the entire Administration "appear" to be "choosing" not to release them?

Cheney is guilty as hell here and he's trying to "rebuild" his legacy from the ground up.

Well....it ain't workin' Jerklips! Now just go retire somewhere. We're tired of all your crap!

"They seem only to be interested in releasing things that really paint American in a negative light and don't give the American people a full picture of what went on,"

I know she's a little biased, but that's exactly what happened the past 8 years.

So we just hide our culpability? We have a standard of conduct that we can be proud to live up to. When we don't we shouldn't be ashamed to say some of our service people didn't get it right. I am a patriot and I am proud that our President isn't afraid to face up to our failures and try to ensure that we behave differently in the future. We don't beat the enemy or win hearts and minds by behaving in a way that's similar to them.

Who in their right mind wants to hear what any Cheney has to say. He will go down in history as being a central part of the worst administration ever. There's no changing that. They are against the release of those photos because they were in charge when this nonsense was going on. Dick and Bush outta be cell mates together. They are an embarrassment to the American people. They represent a nasty draconian past. Remember something Cheney, you were in charge and put those soldiers in that position. You are the blame.

liz cheney, and her father are getting on my dang nerves. why don't they just go away. we all know they don't like my President ok finnnee!!!! but leave him alone.

So, she's not saying that it's wrong to torture prisoners. She's saying that it's wrong to tell the truth about it. Why am I not surprised, considering the same cold Darth Cheney blood flows through her veins. "Liz, I am your father!"

If only Liz and her father (tin can man) would go away!!! Does anyone care what they think??? Is this a diversion from all the unlawful acts the Bush admin conducted with Cheney leading the corruption??

Dick Cheney is a terrorist and a monster among other things. We all know that independent contractors were behind the incredibly bizarre and cruel treatment of prisoners. Dick and George are responsible for outsourcing this very unnecessary war in Iraq to corporate criminals. They are the ones who made our military look bad. My father was an interrogator in Viet Nam and was absolutely appalled at the treatment and torture of these prisoners of war. When will the Republican party regain their dignity? I don't care to much to find out but allowing ANYONE from the last administration to voice their fear mongering is not helping their cause. We are informed and not afraid.

Remember when you criticized Bush and Cheney when they were in office and the canned and immediate response was "Why do you hate America?"
Why do Cheney, his ignorant daughter, and the entire Republican Party hate America now. Why do they not support their President. They are simply traitors.

Full picture? We never got a full picture of what was going on when Bush/Cheney ran things. It is hypocritcal in the extreme for anyone to accuse the President of not painting a full picture when the previous adminstration cherry-picked intelligence to cobble together a picture of threat we never knew existed.

Perhaps Ms Cheney needs to talk to me: my nephew is going to Afghanistan to deal with the incompetence her father helped to inflict on us. I am not siding with terrorists when I say I want the truth, I just want the lying to stop. Is taking responsibility for the truth un-American, Ms Cheny? If it is, then I will gladly do so, and you can live in a world populated by your dad's fantasies.

It is rather odd the 'Good Cop/Bad Cop" roles being played by the same indvidual. Unfortunately, that causes me to not understand our leader because one never knows exactly what is being said from the heart, the brain or to create some environment in order to pave the way for some action. Too bad, every time I think I have not given him a break and I start to listen he changes on me. However that is, I agree, give the good information with the bad so we can make an informed decision rather than be forced to make a decision in a lopsided vacuum.

"In her interview Monday, Cheney also echoed recent calls from her father for the Obama administration to release classified documents detailing information yielded from the aggressive interrogation techniques since denounced by the president. "

If Cheney wanted these documents released, he should have released them under his own watch. This is a red herring.

The Cheney Traitor Cabal marches on. however. Details like the facts have no relevance to them.

Daddy is not a war criminal! He's not he's not HE'S NOT!!!!!! Bad Obama for showing pictures of the things my daddy ordered! Obama is a terrorist socialist commie nazi America-hating traitor!!! Anyone who doe not agree with daddy is a terrorist socialist commie nazi America-hating traitor!!!

It's not torture; it's enhanced interrogation! And in school I used a lot of enhanced test-taking techniques, but because I use those words, it's not cheating. Daddy taught me that.

The "Hate America" crowd are the Cheneys. They hate us for our freedoms, our science, and the fact that we rely on truth and logic.
We see through their lies and hatred for all that is American.
Fear is not an American value.

Anything involving any idiotic Cheney needs a laugh-track. All I can think of with yet another disengenuous and incredibly stupid defense of torture from a Cheney-family member is laughter. As in laughing at them, not with them. I don't think they'd know how to laugh or even crack a smile that wasn't tinged with evil.

showing servicemen and women "in a bad light"? honey, the wonderful service people of the US are following orders. if they're putting anyone in a bad light, it's your dispicable father and his cronies.

shame on you. don't you know your father is a nasty, bitter old criminal?

Duh. What took her so long to figure it out? He is against torturing them, keeping them in prison, killing them on the battlefield, stopping them from entering the country, and spreading their hate through the media. He's as friendly with Palestine as can be, bowed to the king of Saudia Arabia, is friends with Bill Ayers, won't let his administration use the term "terrorist" and was indoctorinated into Islam as a child.

Put all of that together and you've got someone who sides with terrorists. If you haven't figured out where his loyalties are yet, pay close attention and it becomes horridly clear.

What do you expect her to say? The Apple does not fall far from the tree. I never heard her speak out before. Where have you been Liz?

The first thing you need to do to stop evil is to bring it to the light. Like child molesters, people that commit evil want it hidden. If Ms. Cheney has a problem with this "negative light" she should speak to the person that authorized it not the ones that bring it out to the public. Her statement itself reveals that she knows that what her father did was wrong.

I am convinced that these people are evil. They realize that they are so guilty of war crimes that had it not been the USA who perpetrated all of these war atrocities, that they would be in jail, or the world courts would be prosecuting them for war crimes. The guilty always try to divert attention away from themselves and blame anyone they can so that they look like victims, or above reproach. She just needs to keep her mouth shut along with her war criminal husband Dickey.

I think this woman has only worked for either her father or the Bush Administration. Wouldn't it be nice for all to be that fortunate...and now she insults the new admin as well as the american people in general. I loved my father very much also but I didn't blindly follow him wherever he led. My father had morals and ethics and hers does not. Does anyone one really care what this family thinks?

The only thing that's appalling about this is the fact that DICK CHENEY'S DAUGHTER has the gall to mention the words, "supporting the American military families". The psychological stress that our troops have been forced to endure because of her father's policies is unconscionable. Seriously, how does this family sleep at night knowing the suicide rate among soldiers are so high? Knowing that military families have been destroyed because of Dick Cheney? Knowing how many have died, and how many have sustained psychological and physical injuries they will never recover from? This woman must truly live in a bubble.

The Cheneys have been watching Jack Bauer too much! Torture may be acceptable on TV, but not in real life. Our country is better than that!

Who is Liz Cheney and why would she think that anyone would care what her opinions are?

Cheney is a moron. If she supports torture, then she supports terrorism.

For gods sake, now we get to listen to dicks kid?

How much deeper of a hole will the GOP dig for its self

Stay tuned kids, this has gone from laughable to pathetic

Is it not bad enough we have to listen to former VP Cheney? Now, we have his daughter adding her two cents worth! The whole family should just get lost.

Joe in Denver

Its time for the Cheneys, father and daughter to go. Faux Noise interview? Somewhere comfortable and safe – where anything outrageous but "conservative" babble is taken for gospel. DIdn't see Dad Cheney ever do much for vets .. of even serve in the military ... 5 deferment chicken-hawk and his daughter who can not stand seeing the truth... just wants to hide what dear old daddy really did under a big, big old rock.

Well, where was Dick Cheney when the photos of Abu Ghraib prison guards were released?

I'll tell you where he was...he actively casting a negative light on a handfull of military personnels that Cheney decided were going to be fall guys.

If he really cared about them, Cheney would not have allowed the release of these photos or at least spoke up against it like he and his irrelevant daughter are doing now (not that he is any more relevant).

Liz Cheney suggests Obama 'siding with terrorists'

You can't make this type of stuff up...

The GOP doesn't have anything better in its game plan than this kind of malarkey?

No wonder the Republicans are self-destructing......

They Cheneys sound like they have something to hide.

Wow, that apple doesn't fall far from the tree here. Liz, Dick...YOUR WORDS ARE POISON.

Since we're hearing what Liz Cheney has to say, how bout we hear from Mary Cheney too? I'll bet she has a few choice observations on the Republican Party.

Liz Cheney:

She's got her mother's eyes, and her father's intractable hatred.

"They seem only to be interested in releasing things that really paint American in a negative light and don't give the American people a full picture of what went on," she said.

So keeping everything top secret and lying like your father and his little puppet president did gives the American people a better picture of what went on? Liz, you're such a tool. Have a nice day!

I find it appalling that Dick is having his daughter do his dirty work. I also find it appalling that after all these years they still speak about 9/11 whenever it benefits them politically. Enough already. You left the families high and dry and you use them for political gains within your shrinking minority. Stop polarizing america. The days of "you are either with us, or against us" are over!

She is 'suggesting' he sides with terrorists, while she herself is married to the most famous domestic terrorist in US History.

She's white trash, with a passion to hate black people, as evidenced by her ignorant claims of terrorism while blindly ignoring the crimes against humanity that her husband joyously partook in.

Can these people be tried for treason along with torture? They are acting like the cretins they are and only reinforcing the good luck and brains we had by not electing mcnasty and that other woman from Alaska.
What is the cheney family afraid of? That if daddy goes to jail, as he should for war crimes, that they will lose it all?

I'm just speechless. What is there to say other than the fact that I would love to see Liz's face if Cheney gets thrown in the slammer for war crimes.

its funny how six years ago, it was "unpatriotic" to say anything against or that disagreed with the Bush/Cheney administration, but now it is ok for Cheney the Blowhard to criticize everything done by the current administration?

Also, how is it "siding with terrorists" to release evidence that a few rogue soldiers tortured and abused prisoners? Seems very patriotic to me. America can only be great if we learn from our past mistakes and keep from making them in the future.

Shut up Liz. You sound just as naive as your father. Fox News needs to be banned. They don't even report history correctly. I listened to Keith Olbermann last night correct all the false statements Bill O'Reilly made concerning Winston Churchhill. Fox News is completely irrelevant.

This Cheney family is seriously trying to cover something up !!!!!!!!!!! They are scared out of their socks about "the secret" coming out. If you have to try so hard to hide something, that thing must be horrible. But whatever it is, the truth will come out and the American people will know.

Well, if Liz Cheney doesn't approve, we should all obey.

Get over yourselves, corrupt Cheney syndicate.

Good for her. Call them out and tell it like it is. Obamabots won't want to hear it but he does not care about America - he does not care about our military. He is out to destroy this nation and/or become its first dictator and his supporters will just sit back and let it happen and say just give me my check. That goes for the corporate world as well.

I saw her on Morning Joe this morning ... while she ambushed Gene Robinson from the Washington Post this moring.. She is a good talker.. but the Cheney's have their own agenda.. and it is not the betterment for the American People

Daughter like father crazy. And to blive that Andrea Mitchell and others take the side of Liz. Stick together all you want the truth will rise.

Way to go Eugene, for sticking it her this morning.

I'm with you on this one Liz Cheney!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
