Cheney Unapologetic on Waterboarding

Can't wait til this horrible man is no longer our shadow president. Not only were Bush-Cheney oppressive and wrong about many things, they lacked humility to admit mistakes.
He'll be on our TVs tonight. Ickles.
ABC: Vice President Dick Cheney issued an unapologetic defense of the Bush administration's anti-terror policies, including the use of waterboarding, and said the prison at Guantanamo Bay should remain open as long as there's a war on terror.

In his first exit interview and first television interview since the November election, Cheney held fast to his views on coercing information out of alleged terrorists, saying waterboarding was an appropriate means of getting information from Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the alleged mastermind behind the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.

Cheney resisted those who say the Bush administration has overstepped its bounds on torture, saying national intelligence is an art, not a science.
