But I think the previous administration actually showed a great deal of restraint in that these methods -- which they had determined were legal (and apparently had congressional approval for) -- were used in very limited circumstances involving the "highest value" detainees only. I'll agree it could be a slippery slope, but it seems well-contained in the instant case.
