so you know, dick cheney does the political thing. dick cheney, nice to meet you. i said i'm not going to shake hands to do. i despise you and everything you stand for. i thought giving him a good shot like that would collapses rigel personae. he said why do you say that? it was the wrong question because then i was able to do him in on why i said what i said. but for the rest of the 20 minutes, he knew it was pointless trying to raise money from these guys. that was the highlight. i'm lucky you that i wasn't audited. >> host: by d.c. vice president cheney that way? >> guest: 's use of call a neocon. he's directly in iraq and the one in afghanistan and the growth of the special operations community that are running around the world killing people. it is a very bad man. most of these people that are called neocons are dangerous. this is one of the things that i find disturbing about the u.s. and i talk and not a lot called politically incorrect is your reaction to the fact that the old days they used the term politically incorrect. i thought it was a joke, but it wa

. >> george bush and dick cheney must hear loud and clear from the american people and the congress, you do not have our support and you do not have our authorization to launch another war. >> i want to make it clear. i want to make it clear to the president. if he takes this nation to war in iran, without congressional approval, i will make it my business to impeach him.

and dick cheney's office were really the prime mover behind some of these most scandalous things in the bush administration, all of those scary things had david adding ton right at the center of them. he was the guy they called cheney's cheney, when dick cheney wanted to get something done, david adding ton was the guy who would find a way by hook or by crook. jim demint runs the heritage foundation and bizarrely, also david adding ton is banned from ever traveling to russia. yes. same goes for john yu, the justice department lawyer who david adding ton got to write the memo that torture is legal. he can teach at berkeley law school, but he cannot go to russia. also, general jeffrey miller, who ran guantanamo and abu ghraib in the early days. he can't go to russia. also, weirdly, pree berara. remember him announcing all those new york legislatures getting arrested. he cannot go to russia. by name he is banned. same goes for brendan mcguire, who's an assistant u.s. attorney. same goes nor this random new york judge. same goes for this list of people. we have a list of 18 banned ameri

of thirty four million dollars shortly before he took office if there's one thing we know about dick cheney it's that he's a war criminal so most likely any company he's managed doesn't have human rights in the rule of law and its top priorities so it's no surprise that it's former subsidiary defense contractor kellogg brown and root or k.b.r. has been mired in a numerous scandals over the years most notably the case of former k.b.r. employee jamie lead jones who was drugged and gang raped by her colleagues in a lawsuit jamie lee accused k.b.r. of locking her in a shipping container after she reported the rape and later tampering with the evidence and beam enormous lobbying force they are k.b.r. not only one that lawsuit but actually tried to make her pay for their legal fees i'm not getting in and that's not all beyond the no bid contracts in the covering up of rapists the company has set itself in the middle of several controversies in recent years like accepting it. tens of millions of dollars from the iranian government for oil services since two thousand and three despite all the talk

bush dick cheney donald rumsfeld colin powell everyone in the bush administration all of the media c.e.o.'s who propagated all of the lies all of the military commanders who lied and sent us to war knowing that their reasons were fabricated they need to be held responsible not just for the deaths of thousands of u.s. soldiers in the catastrophe created for us soldiers but the complete catastrophe for millions of iraqis over a million who have died become refugees wounded and of course we can't talk about p.t.s.d. for u.s. soldiers without acknowledging that p.t.s.d. for an entire generation of iraqis is a real reality millions and millions of people whose lives have been destroyed and so people want justice for all of these war criminals and people are fighting to win justice and an organization we are forward is working to help get this justice and also help that's opt out thank you so much mike prize the iraq war veteran and co-founder of march forward. so guys as you know this week marks the tenth anniversary of the u.s. invasion of iraq but sadly you wouldn't know if you're just watc

articles of impeachment against george bush and dick cheney when you look at things like nixon being ousted for wiretapping clinton being ousted for an affair how is it that these two men could not be held accountable for initiating an illegal war based on known lies well i think we have to place. the responsibility for that on the shoulders of democratic leadership. because we could have moved forward with impeachment but the democratic. but today that war was based on lies so then should not since the catastrophe of the war resulted in thousands of americans being killed tens of thousands injured maybe a million of innocent iraqis died perhaps damaged in the hundreds of billions of dollars to iraq should there be some kind of bill and so what i've called for is a process of truth and reconciliation like south africa had many years ago where leaders are required to come forward and state their role in the decision making process and if they lie then they're subject to perjury charges we need to clear the air in america we need the truth and it's every since everyone knows it was bas

s and we had the john hughes and the dick cheney's and david addington who came up with this new category of the unlawful enemy combatant which is the term you will find in the geneva conventions that we came up with to avoid. void the law and not call them. lieutenant colonel berry when guard you are a defense attorney. what exactly does that mean when when do you get called into to defend detainees how do you fit in sort of the legal system that's been built at guantanamo bay well back in two thousand and eight the end of the bush administration they attempted to put many cases into the process the military commissions and when in so doing what they did is they entitled these men defense attorneys military defense attorneys now to date there's only been about thirty cases where the men actually have a military defense attorneys so why we're told is to be a zealous advocate for my clients i have a kuwaiti and an afghan and the afghanis cleared for release and that kuwaiti will be indefinitely detained forever. my job is to go down to guantanamo bay and to try to formulate a strategy to g

wyoming senate candidate liz cheney, daughter of course of dick cheney, told a crowd in wye onlying that recruiting "goes -- wyoming that terrorist recruiting "goes on en masse." a former analyst who earlier that day said the liberals of the world would have you believe that practicing freedom of religion, that's nonsense, he said. >> that's nonsense, i said, about what he said. you cannot smear an entire religion because, you know, a -- a subset of folks who practice that religion have done something wrong, have -- you know, carried out terrorist attacks. i mean, it's just wrong. that's all i want to say about that. that kind of comment -- you know, it's beneath contempt. it doesn't deserve much more conversation than that. >> and in this primary, you have senator enzi saying basically she's never voted on anything, we don't know where she stands. to be fair to liz cheney, she did serve in government. where she stands is on a robust neo-conservative view of foreign policy. >> no, absolutely. i mean, she takes after her father. i'm not sure that that's what the state wants at this moment

bush or dick cheney.ct, you look at a lot of these countries, and america's approval ratings lower than they were when george w. bush left office. >> i want to get to andrea. the level of specificity we heard from senator chambliss -- >> that was really something. >> the level of alarm is what struck me. >> he said this is the kind of chatter we heard before 9/11, which, be i the way, was a republican administration. so he's talking about a very serious intelligence threat, not specific in terms of whether this is going to be a car bomb or a suicide vest, but specific enough to warrant the closure of these embassies. the other thing that they're doing today, i'm told, is homeland security has ordered much tighter airport screenings on flights coming from overseas into the united states. and they do not think that this is related to the prison breaks. but you have to be concerned about the prison breaks in libya, iraq, and pakistan where all of these arrested terrorists are now on the loose. >> so under di

we gave a heart to dick cheney. >> thank you. [ laughter ] cenk: how many hearts did we give dick cheneyy the way. >> if that's the benchmark then clearly this young man needs a heart. if we're going to give it to a grumpy old man, we're going to give it to a young man. >> i'm going to use this to get my kids to do their homework, for one thing. run-ins with the law, recently there was a case of an african-american man shot multiple times in his own driveway. that was a run-in with the law. i think it's preposterous to deny this kid a heart transplant for either any run-ins with the law or for bad grades. it's, i mean it's sickening to me. >> i'm glad you brought that up. the guy who got shot in the drive we, do you know what the cops said they shot him for? non-compliance. cenk: for not immediately arrested in his own driveway. yes, it's very frustrating. one last thing on this, because colonel davis pretty much ended the heart point of the conversation, pointing out cheney got one, so that part is over. yes, on the overall number that whites are twice as likely to get organ transplants

. >> sorry, not the wife of dick cheney but biz, the -- liz, the daughter. he's not aggressive enough, not in there fighting the fight. gwen: if you're at the white house which you are covering and dennis mcdonough, the president's chief of staff is having more success in talking to people from the other party. do they have a strategy with -- strategy with how to deal with that politically driven recalcitrance? >> i think the short answer is no and they would say what is the strategy? dennis mcdonough as the new chief of staff is getting really high marks. hardly a day goes by which when someone swsh someone from the hill doesn't say to me what a great job he's done and in reaching out to the members. they want to talk to him but is he going to be able to bring anything in from them? we're running out of time to just have conversation. gwen: and we see what the president is doing is going throughout the country and he's going to be traveling again next week and we all keep track of these public disapproval numbers, which are abysmal for everybody involved. d

you may know them as dick cheneys former company that was awarded sweetheart deals in iraq, bribed nigerianials, pled guilty to violating the libyan embargo in the '90s and was still doing business with iran as late as 2007. they've dodged justice so far, but we'll see if those shenanigans hold up in front of judge johnny. >> thanks, jason. so, i see that this case concerns the after math of the b.p. deep water horizon oil spill. what's the charge? >> cement used by halliburton contractors to seal the b.p. well against explosive gases was unstable. both companies knew this two months before the disaster. >> the evidence that was destroyed was part of several simulations conducted in this post incident examination. snop poor planning leading to major destruction followed by lying and cover-ups? it's hard to believe that this man ever had anything to do with halliburton. well, strap in, everyone. we're probably looking at a long court battle if halliburton tries to snake their way out of this. >> halliburton energy services has agreed to plead guilty to destruction of evidence. the justice de

. >>> well, dick cheney's daughter, liz, who is running for senate in wyoming, had to pay $220 fine for making a fault statement on an application for a fishing license about how long she lived in the state. she says it was all a misunderstanding. >>> and a new jersey corn maze gets political to draw attention. a farmer created a corn maze showing images of chris christie and barbara quinn, both candidate for governor. and that is your morning dish of scrambled politics. >>> it's been five decades since martin luther king jr. gave his legendary speech. starting this week, people from all over will gather to celebrate. melissa mollet is in washington with the latest. >> reporter: good morning. nice to see you. that's right, this really has been in the works for years. now the count on is on dozens of events planned for this weekend and into next week here in washington. two major marches rallied as crews continued to prepare the area by the lincoln memorial. that's where hundreds of thousands gathered for the march 50 years ago. renovations to the mlk memorial done just in time for the f

in between the two extremes you pointed out what do you think it could be in china spike dick cheney seems to think so. you know i don't have evidence of it. but i'm going to it's a curious thing why would he go to hong kong for his refuge and other places available that he could have chosen and given the state of side of the american relations particularly when it comes to things about the cyber domain it really is a curious choice but again no evidence to date i'll tell you how i would handle it or i still in government i would make this one of my working i pod to seize one not not all one of my working up offices and then try to seek out evidence to prove just cruise the up offices now if you were had of n.s.a. and cia what happens when a young colleague of yours a talented good guy walks into your office and tells you boss i think we have a problem with prison what do you say to that. well actually that is that's a great question and what makes all of this so troubling is that mr snowden didn't do that and if he wants to be a true whistle blower he needs to go to a supervisor or

administration because this was created under the bush administration two thousand and two it was created in dick cheney openly says this they wanted to put a facility off u.s. soil so that they can get around certain rights that these detainees would have if they were on u.s. soil and also the bush administration committed torture to get a lot of this information a lot of the detainees here so here we are twelve years later there's eighty six that are going to go as asked for why those eighty six haven't been released to me that's probably politics of fear president obama's afraid that if you release of these people they might commit some terrorist act in the future really that's not a way to govern out of fear the rest of these detainees are people who the government feels that they have a strong case against that they've done something wrong but none of the evidence they've gathered is permissible in court so they can't exactly hold them to this normal trial so instead they're just leaving them there indefinitely it's poor planning was shortsighted planning to create this facility and that was just f

so to do the political things dick cheney knight to me you i said i will not shake hands with you i would despise you and everything the you stand for i thought taking a good shot would collapses fragile persona he said why do you say that? i could do a minute on why i said what i said. but for the rest of the 20 minutes he knew it was pointless to try and raise money he would not come over. it was a highlight the right call them the way i see them. i am lucky i was not audited did. >> host: y uc vice president cheney that way? >> guest: he is what we call a neocon from the war for a state. directly with the structure of war with the iraqi of the afghanistan in the growth of the special operations community burning around the world killing people. he is a very bad man. but most of these people called neocons are dangerous this is one of the things that i find disturbing about these united states about the book called "totally incorrect" or politically incorrect in the old days they used the term politically incorrect a and i thought it was a joke but they really believed that you could be

question remains from his dick cheney what he sees as a cold war mentality holding big launching up a temporary asylum to edward snowden. see where his bottom front is moving to the lines of the codes that villagers are being a race to the ground by radical jihad is a means to some stop and al qaeda and are. also they going to hold a hunger strike paid for six months mine style as the pentagon continues to splash on taxpayers' money on the prison amid claims the white house hasn't given up its plan to shutdown. and western again communities demanded russia based trip to override super bowl the next winter olympics in protest against the new nor against homosexuality propaganda to mind as some even going as far as comparing him to hitler. hello and welcome you know watching that we do you know now see with me here. talk of cold war punishment and a fractured relationship have made this week perhaps the one for u.s. russia ties in years but with washington and moscow have different takes on the situation where obama is talking about reassessing relations the russian side believes it is

makers from around the world came together and put charges against president bush donald rumsfeld dick cheney. and several of those who were part of the bush administration who had ordered. all that other great who had ordered torture who it's redefined the concept of torture as something that was organ failure or death otherwise it's not torture so all of these people were found guilty in that tribe human in malaysia so if any of these people were to go to malaysia they would be arrested under a war crimes warrants however the rest of the world hasn't followed suit where it should have and it doesn't matter whether it's an individual or it's a state and if the state conducts crimes that it should be held accountable and the accountability process is something that obama has said before he came into power that the cia operatives who tortured individuals who were later sent to guantanamo will not be arrested or charged they will simply want to turn the page over and not torture in future but the people who did the torture will get away scot free all right and that was muslim bad joining us liv

i would go to dick cheney and dick cheney said i will take care of it. so we were able to have a very strong voice in the oval office who was always the same, go ahead, spend the money, protect america. that was the call. so it was a preserving the money as much as making sure you developed a tremendous, very robust state health care system, and protect american public. then we decided to get into basra and set a bar do so we could encourage small companies that didn't have the money to put money in to start products and get them to the marketplace. and that was another big thing. and then i get very active with colin powell into the aids movement and women to africa several times. we put it commits amount of money into aids. we were the ones, my department with the national institutes of health was able to set the program. the millennium fund. we took it to the president and the president agreed to take it over as well as the global fund which i chaired and is able to convince president bush to put the first one into the global fund. and that increase t

into this fracking fluid what goes into your water table due to the how of burton exemption that dick cheney while he was vice president and therefore president of the senate managed to get into pass through the law i think was two thousand and three two thousand and one maybe he so they pump stuff in but due to corporate confidentiality they don't have to tell anybody not even the mayors or any of the locals what's actually in their own water make the point clear is that we know that the fracking fluid contains carcinogens but that information can't be published because the corporation will convince the law makers in the public that that's proprietary information and it violates their intellectual property law to inform. fracking fluid used to frack contains carcinogens if you put carcinogens in the body it will cause cancer that's like saying two plus two equals four but unfortunately in this reality you have to treat the british people like plucked in the. book. what's the right word stupid stupid there's just. no wit in it those of course nothing then you could go kids the book. anyway s
