Cheney: "US should murder suspects"

I'm paraphrasing. But only just.

From the Washington Times ( http://washingtontimes.com/news/2009/jun/01/cheney-death-option-detainees-guantanamo-closed/ ):

"If you're going to be engaged in a world conflict such as we are, such as
the global war on terrorism, if you don't have a place where you can hold
these people, your only other option is to kill them," Mr. Cheney said.
So that's Dickey's solution: No trial, no jury, straight to execution. How did people fail to notice for eight years that this man is a textbook raving psychopath? As far as Cheney is concerned, there's no law, international or domestic, which can prevent him killing people whenever he wants. Did it just escape everyone's attention that Lex Luthor was essentially running the country for nearly a decade?

I'm not sure about terrorists but I'm rapidly becoming terrified of Dick Cheney.
