Dick Cheney: I am a war criminal

On ABC's This Week yesterday, Uncle Fester confessed to being a big supporter of waterboarding.

As Andrew Sullivan notes, it's not only a war crime, but one with no statute of limitations. And, either the death penalty or life in prison as a sentence.

Of course, Obama has the balls of a two-week-old mouse, so nothing will happen here.

That said, Glenn Greenwald notes that Cheney is performing a bitch-slap of Obama, to put it bluntly.

But, the precedent of Pinochet in mind, or that of Henry Kissinger, if I were Dick Cheney, I wouldn't travel abroad. That said, if I knew he'd get arrested elsewhere, I'd pack his bags for him.
