*Tony, I am fairly certain my good friend, Ed Poor, let you know this isn't WP. I personally don't know if "any prosecutions" have been made through waterboarding interrogations. Nor do conservatives care! The fact is, the verifiable facts are, information was gained that saved thousands of lives. The prime directive of our government is to secure domestic tranquility and keep citizens safe, no? Please don't use CP articles as yet another vehicle for Bush-Cheney bashing, or trying to "prove" with typical liberal non-logic, that somehow terrorists deserve legal rights. They don't. I would say that a common Possum is more deserving of Constitutional protections. --[[User:TK|'''₮K''']]<sub><small><small>/Admin</small></small></sub><sup>[[User_Talk:TK|/Talk]]</sup> 14:54, 18 January 2009 (EST)

== Why is this article here? ==
The entire point of this article seems to be that waterboarding can not technically be defined as torture, which is pretty obvious to anyone with more than two brain cells(no lasting physical harm). But then why is this article listed in the category "Instruments and methods of torture" and the page on torture also links here. We should remove those links and only include thing that actually are torture, so that people don't get confused and just say that waterboarding is listed as a method of torture on the CP torture page.
