CHENEY: If you\u2019ve got the president of the United States out there saying we overreacted to 9\/11 on our watch, that\u2019s not good.<\/p>\n
CROWLEY: You\u2019d like an apology it sounds like.<\/p>\n
CHENEY: Well, I would. I think that would be not for me, but I think for the Bush administration and — and that he misspoke when he gave that speech in Cairo two years ago.<\/p>\n
RUSH: Right. And something else, something else. Here we have the regime with drones or whatever wiping out an American citizen, no due process, no charges, no evidence, no nothing, just, here\u2019s a drone, you\u2019re dead, Awlaki. What? Wait a second, though. And liberals are applauding this. Liberals are, “You see, Obama is tough on terrorism.” Right. Liberals are applauding. But waterboarding is an act of war. Waterboarding is crime. Waterboarding is a crime. Waterboarding is something that we should have these victims allowed a trial that would run down this country in New York City for two years. You can\u2019t waterboard these people. You can\u2019t put them on a waterboard and sweat the truth out of them and find out what they did, but, boy, you can shore bomb \u2019em to smithereens, we liberals will let you do that, but you can\u2019t waterboard them. Go ahead and kill \u2019em, but if you waterboard them, we\u2019re gonna try and put you in jail in the international court. Liz Cheney got in on this, too. Candy Crowley said, “Liz, you feel that Obama wronged the Bush administration?”<\/p>\n
LIZ CHENEY: I think he slandered the nation, and I think he owes an apology to the American people. Those are the policies that kept us safe, they\u2019re the policies, frankly, that contributed, the enhanced interrogation technique we know now Leon Panetta has said some of the intelligence we gained through that program helped us identify the location of Bin Laden. So I think the president owes everybody an apology, frankly.<\/p>\n
RUSH: Yeah, and they know it\u2019s not gonna be forthcoming, there won\u2019t be one, but they\u2019re out there making the point. And Cheney, by the way, did endorse the killing of Anwar Awlaki as justified, despite Awlaki\u2019s US citizenship. He suggested the Obama White House is being hypocritical when it approved a deadly strike against Awlaki while condemning waterboarding, so-called enhanced interrogation. He\u2019s exactly right, I mean it\u2019s more than just irony. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
