This report is just like the Iran-Contra scandal - Senate over-reach and politicians interfering with the professionals.
You see Reagan was the President and so nothing he did could be wrong and he and Bush had to be right when they sanctioned torture because you see a ReTHUG President is as infallible and omnipotent as a Pope.
All that he didn't say was that Nixon was also right.
Dixk Cheney is still pissed about Nixon - he's fucking crazy - and just as dangerous now as he was then

"If the President does it, it's okay"
His problem might be that Nixon did not say "Vicepresident".
