Senator Kit Bond: Waterboarding is "like swimming"

DeanJ says: "If Senator Bond invites you over for an afternoon pool party you really should make other plans."

Gwen Ifill (PBS Newshour host): "Do you think that waterboarding, as I described it, constitutes torture?"

Senator Kit Bond: "There are different ways of doing it. It's like swimming, freestyle, backstroke. The waterboarding could be used almost to define some of the techniques that our trainees are put through, but that's beside the point."
