Ron Reagan: Dick Cheney Is a 'War Criminal'
According to Hardball guest host Ron Reagan, former Vice President Dick Cheney is a "war criminal" for endorsing waterboarding. On Thursday, the son of the former President attacked, "But the fact of the matter is...[Cheney's] a war criminal. Torture is a crime and this is a guy who can't travel to Europe anymore for fear of being- ending up in the Hague."
Reagan was commenting on a new interview Cheney has given to NBC in which he reiterates support for waterboarding. The liberal anchor discussed the subject with Clarence Page of the Chicago Tribune. Reagan reiterated, "...Any neutral reading of, say, the U.N. Convention Against Torture makes it pretty clear that if you support waterboarding and you enact that sort of a policy, you're guilty of a war crime."
[See video below. MP3 audio here.]
Page seemed to agree: "I think in real life [Cheney] probably is avoiding trips to Europe, I imagine, like Henry Kissinger and others on the lam from that branch of international justice, if you will." Page added that the ex-VP "probably" hasn't got much to fear, in terms of criminal prosecution.
Reagan also called Cheney a war criminal on CNN in January of 2011.
Reagan has guest-hosted for the very liberal Chris Matthews three times this week. On Wednesday, he derided presidential candidate Rick Santorum as a "lonely, homophobic voice shrieking in the wilderness."

Story Continues Below Ad ↓5:21
JAMIE GANGEL: Should we still be waterboarding terror suspects?
DICK CHENEY: I would strongly support using it again if circumstances arose where we had a high-value detainee and that was the only way we could get him to talk.
GANGEL: Even though so many people condemned it. People call it torture. You think it should still be a tool?
CHENEY: Yes.
RON REAGAN: You see, Clarence, he never backs off of that sort of thing. I guess, we don't expect him to. But the fact of the matter is, and people know my feelings about this pretty surely, he's a war criminal. Torture is a crime and this is a guy who can't travel to Europe anymore for fear of being- ending up in the Hague. Does he deal with that, do you suppose, in the book?
PAGE: Well, I can't say how he deals with it in the book in detail, just from reports that have come out. I think in real life he probably is avoiding trips to Europe, I imagine, like Henry Kissinger and others on the lam from that branch of international justice, if you will. But, as far as back here in the states, he probably hasn't got much to fear. The Obama administration made it clear they want to move on. They don't want to go back to the Justice Department and go after the Bush administration on legal areas like this. But with a campaign coming along, again, you've got a polarized the electorate. Nothing he set apparently would offend Republicans. It will offend a lot of Democrats. Will it fire them up to wanted to come out and support Obama more? That's the kind of question we're asking now.
REAGAN: Yeah. Not to hammer the point at all, but any neutral reading of say, the U.N. Convention Against Torture makes it pretty clear that if you support waterboarding and you enact that sort of a policy, you're guilty of a war crime.

A phobia is a fear of something. Conservatives don't fear gay people. We just don't like their lifestyle, and that usually leads to us not liking them. It has nothing to do with fear.

So, the choices are...either we must like EVERYONE,

or get labeled as "bigoted"?. Grow up little girl, not everyone in the world will like everyone else, or approve of them. Accept it, move on, and quit making a sniveling case out of it. Just because someone doesn't like you or approve of your lifestyle, it doesn't mean that you have a legal case for government intervention.
We don't get worked up because a bunch of people we don't care to associate with call us names, we get worked up because those people feel they have a right to force us to like them, or accept any depraved display of their sexual proclivities. Or force us to have our children educated in their image.
Besides, it's just damn funny that a man would want to put on tights and prance around on a stage with a gaggle of other ballerinas. GodDAMN funny, especially when he looks like that.

Unless he gets a new heart soon, his days are numbered.
Syrius talks out of his ass again. LVAD's are relatively new, the latest study results only go back a decade or so. And those studies showed a survival of 2 years or more. And half of the deaths occurred due to sepsis and other problems NOT related to the pump itself.
The result of this study showed a 48% decrease in the death rate from all causes with the LVAD over the first 2 years of use.
Thought to have a life expectancy of <2 years
And that is from the OLD pumps from more than a decade ago.
•The documentation for the newest pumps on the market is very limited. Two ongoing RCTs were identified and two cohort studies (VentrAssist and HeartMate II). These studies are expected to be completed in 2009-12, and may be able to add useful documentation about the effect of the newest heart pumps
The truth is, we have no way of gauging former Vice President Cheney's condition as we do not have near enough medical evidence to do so. WON'T STOP A TROLL FROM LYING ABOUT IT THOUGH.
Wow. Just Wow.

I think the former VP is in a very grave condition that is not improving. I do not know how long the former VP has on this planet. With your reference-"...a life expectancy of <2years", will it be okay to say he may have less than a year to live since he has lived 13 mos. with the LVAD?
After 5 heart attacks starting when he was 37, I may draw conclusions from the references you have presented and form an opinion. You are entitled to yours. Now go away.

So by progressive logic it is ok (for Obama, which might be the key here) to kill innocent non combatants and it ok to kill terrorists without trial, without arrest, without counsel and without indictment or due process but if you want to hold them in a cold cell and force water up their nose that is illegal. Does that really make sense?

This is no more than little Ronnie expressing the official policy of MSNBC. That little creepy guy (Chris Hayes?) who looks like Rachel Maddow's twin brother (or is it Rachel Maddow that looks like his twin brother?) used the "war criminal" label today as well. It used to be that everyone in the lefty media was telling us that Cheney provided "gravitas" to GWB, who had none of his own. Now he's just a war criminal.

to the family name.
At least his equally disgraceful sister changed her last name so as not to be a bigger embarrassment than she already was.
For that the family should be a little bit grateful. I imagine Michael probably is.
IDIOT!!!

This idiot has only succeeded in life on the back of his fathers name. The fact he is on this useless network is becuase his last name is "Reagan." His opinions are listened to only by mind-numbed idiots with simplistic views of the world. Dick Cheney is a real American HERO - who took risks and shed sweat for this country - and little Ronny Reagan gets to benefit from the freedoms provided by MEN like Cheney!!!
Disgrace

It says a lot about the character of the man, when he willfully disgraces his fathers legacy.
He is an embarrassment

He embarrasses both his mother and his father as well as his brother. As for character, Ron Reagan has none. He is just being used by the MSM and is too dumb to even know it. Thank goodness his father does not have to see this.

Ron-Ron's accusation is about as true as claiming Ron-Ron was a linebacker for the Green Bay Packers.
Ron-Ron is a liberal mental defect.

I would like to see this panty wearing sissy boy make that outrageous left wing statement directly to Cheney's face.
Cheney was and actually still is ( Obama continues Bush/Cheney policies ) the catylist which affords this little creep the luxury of not cowering under his bed & the ability to freely speak what little mind he's got in that thick head of his.
What about the Constitution?
Submitted by Fredy on Fri, 08/26/2011 - 3:45pm.
As VP, Dick Cheney can no more be held responsible for the actions of the US government than I can.
Does Ron Reagan Jr know what the office of the vice president of the US is responsible for?
Ron Reagan Jr, whose hatred is unbounded by reality, needs to go and read the US constitution.
PS: I seem to remember a debate in which Sarah Palin correctly articulated those duties while the MSM derided her for knowing the Constitution while Joe Biden displayed ignorance of the constitutional role in that same debate.
What's ironic is that if

What's ironic is that if Ron-Ron would apply the same standards across the board then he would have to accuse Obama of war crimes as well regarding Libya. And he would have a stronger case with Obama than Cheney.
Typical liberal double-standards.
Morals???

Does anyone else find it odd that liberals like Junior always talk about taking the "moral high ground" when they prove every day that they have no morals at all?
Really?
