"So says the Attorney General of the United States." This is what I've been basing the argument on. We can each have an opinion, we can even go with the changing winds of opinion but in our system of laws it falls back on the justice system to judge or classify the issue. During the Bush Administration it was the position of the Attorney General that Waterboarding was not classified as torture. For this reason the allegation that Bush admitted to authorizing torture is false. "The controversial interrogation technique of waterboarding has served a "valuable" purpose and does not constitute torture, former Attorney General John Ashcroft told a House committee." edition.cnn.com On January 15, 2009 the U.S. President-elect Barack Obama's nominee for Attorney General, Eric Holder, told his Senate confirmation hearing that waterboarding is torture and the President cannot authorize it. en.wikipedia.org
