Bush Denies Knowledge of Torture Tapes

The CIA has destroyed the videotapes that would have proven that the U.S. uses torture in its interrogation of prisoners of war. Bush and Cheney previously authorized use of "enhanced interrogation techniques." These techniques include sleep deprivation, extreme cold, hitting, waterboarding, and other forms of torture.

Now Bush claims that he "did not remember" anything about the tapes. He may also deny that he authorized the techniques used. When all else fails, you can always lie.
