Torture is against the laws of this country. It is against the law to commit torture in the country or to assist or to commission torture in another country. This is the law and this law is not disputable. People can argue about this if they want but there is no exception to this rule of law. I pray this does not change.

The only question that should be up in the air at this point is whether or not waterboarding as used by the CIA rises to the level that can be defined as torture. It was argued during the Bush admin and the conclusion drawn was that it does not. So the label "enhanced interrogation" was concluded to be a step below interrogation.
