The CIA faces a sweeping indictment of its interrogation program, a blistering, 6,000-page Senate study that includes incendiary accusations that agency officials for years systematically misled the White House, the Justice Department and Congress about torture or the so-called enhanced interrogation techniques like waterboarding. http://www.nytimes.com/2013/03/07/us/politics/cias-harsh-interrogations-pose-hurdles-for-john-brennan.html?hp&_r=0 The program was ill-conceived, sloppily managed and far less useful in obtaining intelligence than its supporters have claimed. CIA officials and consultants who ran the program gave top Bush administration officials, members of Congress, the American public and even their own colleagues  a deeply distorted account of its nature and efficacy. The United States came to use nudity, cold, sleep deprivation, stress positions, wall-slamming and waterboarding, methods it had long condemned as abuse or torture. “I don’t know what the facts are or the truth is. So I really need to look at that carefully and see what CIA’s response is,” Nominee for CIA Chief John Brennan said.
