Cheney: Enhanced Interrogations 'Essential' in Saving American Lives - Political News - FOXNews.com: "Former Vice President Dick Cheney defended the CIA's aggressive interrogation of terrorists — including techniques that may have skirted the law — by saying it kept the nation safe from 'mass casualty attacks' for eight years.

Cheney, speaking on 'FOX News Sunday' in an exclusive interview, touted the effectiveness of the tactics as he blasted the Obama administration for its decision to investigate alleged prisoner abuses by the CIA.

'The enhanced interrogation techniques were absolutely essential in saving thousands of American lives and preventing further attacks against the United States, and giving us the intelligence we needed to go find Al Qaeda, to find their camps, to find out how they were being financed,' Cheney said. ."
