Tom Ridge: Waterboarding Is Torture

The AP: “There’s just no doubt in my mind — under any set of rules — waterboarding is torture.” He added, “I believe, unlike others in the administration, that waterboarding was, is — and will always be — torture. That’s a simple statement.”

It never ceases to depress me that we live in an era in which everyone is weighing in on whether this or that is, in fact, torture committed by the United States. How far have we fallen? I mean seriously. I thought this was settled with the Spanish Inquisition and the Gestapo.

OF COURSE WATERBOARDING IS TORTURE!
