The Next Attorney General and Waterboarding

Hosted by

Michael Mukasey's on his way to the full Senate for likely confirmation as Attorney General of the United States, but the issue of waterboarding could still cause him problems. If it's torture, would that incriminate high level US officials? We hear from a man who's been waterboarded--and trained American service people how to endure it.  Also, a suicide bombing in Afghanistan, and drug lords in South America are building submarines.
