The same old Republican Party ( Dick Chaney)


Former Vice President Dick Chaney spoke on television in response to President Obama's speech on Torture, Gitmo
the the former Vice president went on to list the Terrorists attacks on America.
the first World Trade center Bombing in the 90s (he forgot to mention the perpetrators were caught, tried and jailed.)
He also mentions the bombing of the Marine Barracks in Lebanon and the killing our soldiers there.
(he forgot to mention that President Regan saw we were up against maniacs and pulled our troops out of Lebanon, or you could say Regan cut and ran.)
He went on to mention the attack on the US ship the Cole.
He mentioned these and more to justify America disregarding the Geneva Convention Laws against Torture.
In doing so he justified the Japanese, and German torturing of our troops.
He said a country has the right to do what it must to protect it citizens.
He mentioned that there were 3 water boardings, a blatant lie. (he did not mentioned that information obtained by torture, in many cases, was not able to be used because it was unreliable information.)
We can see where the Grand Old Party is now. Back to the Bush years.
His speech was so predicable with such old ideas.
If the Republican Party wants to remain in the past by parading Vice President Chaney around we know that a vote for the Republicans is more of the past policies of America which the voters showed they do not want. The Republican party is so bankrupt of ideas all it can do is tell us scary stories of Terrorism.
Yes the Party of "the mistakes we made in the past. No new ideas."
