Cheney: Reports of Abuse are Lies

Vice President said he was offended by the Amnesty International report detailing of "serious human rights violations" at Guantanamo Bay. "I frankly just don't take them seriously" he said in an Monday night interview with Larry King. He said prisoners "have been well treated, treated humanely and decently" and suggested that reports of prisoner abuse has been lies. "Occasionally there are allegations of mistreatment. But if you trace those back, in nearly every case, it turns out to come from somebody who has been inside and been released ... to their home country and now are peddling lies about how they were treated."
