V.P. Cheney appeared on CNN’s Larry King Live on Monday. During this interview, Larry asked Mr. Cheney for his views regarding the Amnesty International report. Good old Dick played the innocent victim part very well saying he was “offended” by the report and does not take it seriously. When asked about the allegations of Guantanamo detainees have made, Dick once again played his victim role by stating:

Occasionally there are allegations of mistreatment but if you trace those back in nearly every case it turns out to come from someone who has been inside and returned to their home country and now are peddling lies about how they were mistreated.

This appearance by the Vice President also comes when another report is released by the AP, detailing more allegations of abuse.

Since Amnesty International has released their human rights report, top Bush administration officials have been working hard to denounce it and label it as lies and falsities. Amazingly, they are working so hard to discredit this report, but they wont give any mention yet to the now infamous Downing Street Memo (see yesterdays blog).Also if this report is truly filed with lies and false allegations, and if all theses detainees have colluded to fabricate these false allegations, then why doesn’t our administration once and for all prove it wrong by opening up the Guantanamo detention facility to independent organizations such as The Red Cross and Amnesty.
