Yes, sometimes officials of the government make rules that are actually illegal. Consider every time a law has been overturned by the court as being unconstitutional. There are plenty of things that are made legal that violate existing laws. Making waterboarding legal violates existing laws against torture. And yes, it takes an official act to clear that up. Do you understand that, or are you still confused?
I am confused as to why this is an issue 8 years after the Democrat Controlled Senate gave 22 reasons for removing Saddam Hussein and how Bush was demonized for not preventing 9/11 but now is demonized for preventing another. You call waterboarding illegal yet Obama obviously didn't believe it was illegal as he issued an executive order making it illegal. You people relly need to get over your Bush Derangement Syndrome.
I keep wondering why the double standards on the part of you and others like you.
