Cheney as Protector of Civil Liberties

If it weren't so sad, it would be funny to see the Vice-President lecturing Russia, or anybody, about the importance of upholding civil liberties. Dick Cheney has demonstrated his contempt of an open government and the due process of law whenever he found it convenient to do so, and, as a result, this country's moral authority has diminished. Whether you call yourself a conservative or a liberal, or something in between, any halfway-literate American should be concerned about the galling hypocrisy displayed by this man.
