All this torture crap is a misdirection, a distraction from something that the Obama administration doesn't want us paying attention to. how much do you want to bet that the administration is trying to slip something by us?
What I see is consituency politics and an increasingly irrelevant MSM needing story material. Anyone paying the slightest attention to political events in Washington knew all about the waterboarding. The whole thing is a load, but like many of the insipid things the politician-media run with, there is high potential to do harm. I doubt they care.
