Dick Cheney is out on a major propaganda tour.
This is a clip of Code Pink protesting him at the Nixon library. He tells the audience that only 3 people were involved in water boarding -- he's selling the idea that his worldwide torture program only involved 3 people. It doesn't even make sense but the crowd laps it up.

I was afraid for the Code Pinkers because the audience turned on them. These are the same people that cheer executions, the type of people that believe Dick Cheney's obvious lies and buy his book. One guy in the clip says "thank him (Cheney) for the freedoms he gave you". Maybe he meant, the freedom from habeas corpus, freedom to be wiretapped and groped at airports. :crazy:

The Tea Party may be waning, they were fake grassroots. But the cohort of angry stupid, ignorant people is very real and they are only being encouraged by the radical right.

1. Why doesn't he promote the book in Europe
so they can lock up his decrepit war criminal body in the Hague.

2. Darkness has a foothold here.
It is up to us to dislodge it and expose it as much as possible, even with the security state's high holy day coming up, 9/11.

3. The tone changed the fall of the Tea Party townhalls.
I don't think it was them exactly but the mindless hateful mob mentality that was let loose that year.
