The question remains, what if they did it to your son or daughter


Michael Mukasey answered hundreds of questions, on record, and in writing, to try to secure his nomination as Attorney General. Among them are his response to the question "Is waterboarding torture." As expected he danced around the issue, and in the end, refused to acknowledge that it is.

As I've said before, a simple reframing of the quesiton might solicit a different answer.

So, Judge Mukasey, would waterboarding be torture if they did it to your son Marc, or your daughter Jessica?
