Olbermann and Maddow Discuss Obama's Press Conference.



Olbermann and Maddow discuss the many ways Obama attempted to avoid the obvious conclusion to his statement that waterboarding is torture.

Olbermann went as far as to describe Obama's parsing as "dichotomous", an adjective of the noun dichotomy of which I was previously unaware. Maybe that's my stupidity.

But I agree with them that Obama stated waterboarding is torture without arriving at the obvious conclusion that torture is a crime, not "a mistake".
