U.S. Senator (R-AZ),

Mitchell: Bush officials have always denied that waterboarding done at secret black sites, prisons in Poland and other cooperating countries, was torture. Senator John McCain himself tortured for years as a Vietnam P.O.W., says the long-awaited senate report leaves no room for debate. McCain: I think the evidence is very clear that waterboarding was used as a routine technique, which is the definition of torture. Mitchell: Still today the CIA's former top lawyer defends the practices. Rizzo: They were harsh. But I didn't think then and I don't think now that they constitute torture.
