MEMOS PROVE TORTURE SAVED LIVES, BUT NOT FOR REASON CHENEY SAYS
By R J Shulman
WASHINGTON – (PTSD News) – In the last few weeks, former Vice President Dick Cheney has been calling on the Obama administration to release CIA memos that in his words “prove that enhanced interrogation such as waterboarding saved thousands, maybe hundreds of thousands of lives.” Senator Carl Levin, chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee said he’s seen the memos and they prove nothing of the sort. However, there is strong evidence the two are not referring to the same set of memos.

While the Central Intelligence Agency memos do not support Cheney’s claims that torture works, memos from the former vice president’s psychiatrist, Dr. Hecotor Cia, tell a different story. The Post Times Sun Dispatch has obtained a copy of the Dr. Cia memos in question and they present a strong case in support of Cheney’s use of torture probably saved millions of lives. One memo, written in April of 2002 said, “Dick’s ability to ease his overwhelming rage by taking it out on detainees being held in the Guantamamo prison facility so far has kept his trembling hands from pushing the button to nuke a place like Massachusetts, where they don’t generally agree with his policies.” On September 23, 2005, Dr.Cia writes, “Dick seems to be a new man after an all night session of waterboarding, kicking, slapping and something to do with a truncheon in lemon butter. The recent shooting of his friend in the face may just be an isolated incident.”

“I always knowed there was memotoriums that would cleanse Mr. Cheney,” said former President George W. Bush at his first speech after leaving office at a rally in Benton Harbor, Michigan. “If it wasn’t for Gitmo, Mr. Cheney could have done some really bad, bad things. When he’d get all wound up and was about to shock and awe someplace, lets say California, cause they don’t like him much there, I remindicate Dick that Gitmo was just a few hours away or tell him that I saw a sale at Home Depot for some slick new waterboard or truncheon.”

“I would hate to think of all of the loss of life that would have occurred if Dick was not able to used enhanced interrogation,” said Haillie Somatra of the Anxiety Institute of Indiana, “much as we might abhor his use of torture, it kept him from doing things much, much worse.”
