Not if it's done to someone else.

Since certain parties feel waterboarding is NOT torture, they will not object to the technique when THEY are being questioned. I am tired of "hearings" where no one answers any questions .... "UH, Senator, on the advice of counsel ..."
NOW we will clean up the CORRUPTION in Pentagon contracts. NOW we will get to the TRUTH in Halliburton contracts. NOW Cheney and Rove WILL tell us who "outed" Plame ..... after all .... "It is not torture". Do their FAMILIES TOO, just for good measure.
