This is so screwed up. I love how cain says he would let the military leaders decide. Does the idiot forget that He is the leader??? Michele shows how evil she really is the nasty submissive evil woman.

SPARTANBURG, S.C. (AP) - Republican presidential hopefuls Herman Cain and Michele Bachmann both say they would reinstate waterboarding during interrogations of suspected terrorists, while rivals Ron Paul and Jon Huntsman both say they see the procedure as torture.

The GOP contenders split Saturday night over whether waterboarding would be an effective tool.

Cain says he doesn't support torture, but he says he would trust military leaders to determine what that means. He says he would return to waterboarding because he doesn't see it as torture.

Bachmann says she supports it, while Paul says it is illegal.

Huntsman says waterboarding diminishes U.S. standing in the world and undercuts the nation's values.

GOP contender Mitt Romney wasn't directly asked about the issue but adds he would use whatever means necessary to protect America.

How could someone who is running for president not know that the POTUS is Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces? Apparently Cain does not. And if he doesn't see waterboarding as torture, then maybe he ought to volunteer to be waterboarded.

Not a bit surprised that Bachmann would support waterboarding or any form of torture for that matter. Also not surprised that Mittens didn't answer the question.

Huntsman is right on both points. Of course, he's got a snowball's chance in hell of getting the nomination.
