Jon Stewart mocks Dick Cheney for using 9-11 as his definition of torture.

"Dick Cheney, setting this nation's moral bar at anything incrementally better than the most despicable thing that has ever been done to us."

The fact that Cheney uses 9-11 as his definition of torture is at once incredibly disingenuous but also totally ridiculous.

The people who died on 9-11 were not tortured, they were massacred.

Torture is something inflicted upon you by somebody who expects you to survive long enough to either tell them what they want to know, or to suffer in order to satisfy their sadomasochistic fantasies.

Dying is not part of the torture. Dying is the end to the pain.

What we did was to rectally feed these detainees so that we could continue to enjoy watching them suffer long after we realized that they had no information of any value to surrender to their captors.

THAT is torture in its truest form.

      And rat bastards Dubya and Rumsfeld were in on it, too. Pardon the terminology but that's what they are, all three of 'em.

    Now see, when it comes to Darth Cheney, aren't you just the tiniest, tinyest bit sorry you don't believe in Hell? If there were ever any creature more deserving of such a place, it would definitely be him.

      Yes.
      But you see, since there is no hell, he feels free to do as he wishes.

      My "believing" in god, or hell or satan don't make them real. I guess that's how religious minds roll, belief in something makes it "real"? Once again, I'll never understand that mindset.

    If you ever see the video of Rumsfeld leaving the White House after the decision was made to attack Iraq, he is walking like he has a woody. I swear.

    He was on a roll last night! What I've always liked about Cheyney is his decisiveness when it came to supporting the LGBT community. When he puts his foot down, he drags the other one forward and steps into it with both feet. Right Liz and Mary? Can't wait for christmas at the Cheyney's undisclosed bunker this year. My money's on Mary and her family.

    Al least we know where sarah got her 9-11 was torture talking points.

    Too bad someone doesn't hack in and turn off his bionic heart. He is pure evil.
