Vice President Cheney Promoted a Pro-Torture Environment

From The Washington Note (and again, why am I not surprised?):

Col. Lawrence Wilkerson , who served General Colin Powell in various capacities as a close aide for 16 years -- most recently as Powell's Chief of Staff at the Department of States, has written a short, matter of fact assessment of the torture proclivities during the Bush administration and the Vice President's central role in promoting a "pro-torture" national security/military environment.

Wilkerson writes in "Dogging the Torture Story".
