Back on topic...your argument seems to hinge on waterboarding not being torture. What's your take on the recent statement to a House subcommittee by Malcolm Nance?

It makes no difference that one naval officer is against waterboarding. There are many in the military who think waterboarding is a valuable tool in certain circumstances and should be used.

Waterboarding is a valuable tool. It is NOT torture and waterboarding HAS saved the lives of Americans.

You don't seem to care that it has saved people's lives.

You also haven't offered any suggestions on how to extract information from the most hardened terrorists without waterboarding. None of the anti-waterboarding people have offered a single suggestion.

The lives of American citizens is more important than any temporary discomfort of a terrorist.
