Cheney: "Guantanamo is more like Alcatraz."

Vice President Cheney took exception to the Amnesty International's recent characterization of the Guantanamo Bay prison for enemy combatants as a Gulag. Cheney asserts that, "If anything, we are trying to make Guantanamo more like an Alcatraz or a luxurious Sing-Sing."

In a related development, Vice President Cheney has canceled his plans to renew his Amnesty International membership and subscription to Newsweek.
