As quoted in a Washington Post article today looking at Vice President Cheney's record, HRF CEO and Executive Director Elisa Massimino said Cheney:

Human Rights First has been working with a group of retired military officers in an effort to end official cruelty and restore America's commitment to the rule of law.
