DU Challenge - DU this CNN poll on waterboarding
http://www.cnn.com/

Scroll down, poll on right side of the page, "Should the U.S. continue to use waterboarding on suspected terrorists?"

Right now, 44% agree with that statment. How much can we reduce that number?

1. I can't believe they even have to ask.
Disgusting, every bit of it. Some Americans have little moral compass.

21. Unbelievable! 92+K respondants and STILL 56% - 44%
I don't get it. Is it REALLY possible that 44% of the population of our country things that waterboarding is ever appropriate?
