I know what he was saying. Military leadership determined waterboarding was not “torture,” and they were correct. He’ll not box himself in to ridiculous definitions b/c the press wants him to.

I don't think he does.

I personally don't have an issue with waterboarding terrorists, but what is allowed is not up to the military but with the civilians who command it and with whom the buck stops. Cain's statement leads people to think he doesn't understand that.

He’ll not box himself in to ridiculous definitions

That's just what he did.
