Sacha Baron Cohen has put the waterboarding kit that former Vice President Dick Cheney signed on his show Who is America? on eBay, and appears on the sales website listed by seller ermo43.

In the second episode of Who is America? Cohen questioned the former VP about his support of the use of waterboarding as an interrogation technique and handed him the ‘kit’ for Cheney to sign, who added that the kit would now be ‘very valuable’.

‘The bottle is made from Military Grade High Density Polyethylene (HDPE), meaning that as well as Water Boarding, it can also be used to Dr. Pepper Board, Clorox Board or even Urine Board potential terrorists or annoying neighbours.
