He that would make his own liberty secure must guard even his enemy from oppression; for if he violates this duty he establishes a precedent that will reach to himself." Thomas Paine, "Dissertations on First Principles of Government", 1795
I ran across the video a couple of hours earlier and howled. Thanks for the replay.

Is that the same Bill Clinton who said that torture like Jack Bauer's would be OK?

By criticizing Cheney, Clinton is subliminally playing the race card against Obama. It's complicated but just trust me.

I like the fact that Bill was very casual, dismissive, and jovial in what he said.
After realizing that Cheney is a pathologicially frightened sociopath... I think that's the best way to deal with him until he actually gets before a judge.
BTW I know TPM Gary likes to call Cheney Blunderdick but I can't get behind it because it makes him sound like Homer Simpson... just sort of blundering around being stupid. This guy is a sociopath so he's more like the riddler or the joker. I get why we don't want to give him status and power by giving him the 'darth' title but maybe just 'The Sick Cheney' or something vastly more creative.

what's even funnier is that these journalists spent time dissecting it and pontificating over it.
