Let's not forget about the current administration

This story on waterboarding prompts me to ask "Is anyone really surprised by anything the current administration does anymore?" I say let's line up all the politicians, George Bush included, who say that waterboarding isn't torture, and let them experience it for themselves. If after experiencing it for 15 minutes (which, I daresay, is a much shorter period than any of the 3 individuals whom the CIA now admits they used this "legal" form of questioning), they can still say it isn't torture, we can talk.

Here's a tip to the CIA, the FBI, the Republicans, and President Bush: if the tactic you favor was also used by the Spanish Inquisition, it probably is torture.
