In an angry editorial published in the Sunday edition of the New York Times, the newspaper's editorial board called on president Barack Obama to Prosecute Torturers and Their Bosses.
The list of offenders in a credible investigation is a long one, including former vice president Dick Cheney; his chief of staff, David Addington; former CIA director George Tenet; and John Yoo and Jay Bybee, the lawyers for the Office of Legal Counsel who helped draft the documents clearing the way for enhanced interrogation of prisoners and enemy combatants.
In addition, the editors called for charges to be brought against Jose Rodriguez, Jr., the CIA official who ordered the destruction of supposedly incriminating videotapes; the psychologists who devised the torture regimen; and the agency employees who carried out those directives.
The board also asserted:

Remember that granny with the Burper video? (”I’d shoot ‘em in his toodles”?) Hilarious!
Is the NY Times still being published? Why?
The NY Times would rather some guy like Bringley shoot them execution style, so there is no torture, just death. The Jerks at NY Times need to be in unemployment line.
Any editor of The Times should be prosecuted also.
How about the Castro brothers
We need to prosecute those we have in office now
...is the only torture *I* care about!
If yellow journalism were prosecutable then the NY Times editorial board would be swinging from high trees n
Wherever there is a NYT, you have good soil for a Mayor Wilhelm.
Wouldn’t the president and congressional leaders be culpable too?
Does the NYT believe they get to define “torture”?
Being forced to read their dribble ought to qualify.
Thanks for “The Ten Ways Dick Cheney Can Kill You”. One of the funniest things I’ve seen on F.R.
6 years into Obama.
The massive Ferguson political movement has ended after the election
Time for the next of non-stop, successive media/ political movements. This is just an interim one - release “Senate Torture Report,” bring attention to Cheney/Bush.
Deflect, deflect, deflect. Stir, stir, stir. Don’t stop. Constant agitation is the key to leftist governance.
More appropriately, the FBI arrests the NYT Editors as domestic terrorists and turns them over to CIA for “rendition” — “torture” according to them. I guarantee they will sing like canaries about lots of things to do with domestic and national security.
The next time terrorists strike New York, I think I’ll pour myself a drink, take a bath, like any other day nothing significant happens.
The usual inconsequential and irrelevant idiocy from NYT.
How many of these fools would be dead today if not for the strict treatment of America’s enemies.
My wife, reading next to me, asked why the outburst.
I showed her the title, then the first response.
She out loud wondered if all freepers were on the same wavelength.
He is the only man in the country who can run the diabolical BUSH/CHENEY WEATHER CONTROLLER, which sets, as we well know, the rate at which Global Warming is causing the rise of sea levels around the world. Thanks to pressure from Team Obama, the rate has slowed significantly ... but if Dick Cheney gets mad ... who knows?
Of course this would hurt women, children, dark-skinned minorities, and the LGBT community most of all.
I would support the execution by firing squad of every last editor of the new york times, for multiple acts of treason.
