Torture has never been a stated policy of the United States.  Yes there are some instances where it has gone overboard and those people have been dealt with accordingly.

However, this will get back to the whole issue of "what is torture."  Is waterboarding torture?  Many good arguments on both sides.  Is sleep deprivation torture?  Without a clear cut definition of torture, it turns into a circular debate that will be unwinnable by either side, especially if you want o try senior administration officials.
