Didn't he once run on a campaign promise to "restore values to the White House"?

Why would someone introduce a bill to outlaw something that was already illegal? US soldiers have been tried, and some convicted of this in previous wars. If it weren't illegal already, how were they tried?
Did someone sneak into the legislature on some dark night and made the practice legal again? If so, should we be talking about overturning the convictions of those who were previously convicted of it? |

That's not the choice, and it's never been the choice, so why ask a completely irrelevant question?

It has already been proven that torture of any type is an ineffective means of extracting information. Water boarding isn't saving people's lives, it is psychologically damaging both the person being tortured and the torturer. It is evil - period.
