Bush says "We do not torture...??" Huh...??

ok, so now we know bush doesn't have two brain cells to rub together...
President Bush vigorously defended U.S. interrogation practices in the war on terror Monday and lobbied against a congressional drive to outlaw torture.

"There's an enemy that lurks and plots and plans and wants to hurt America again," Bush said. "So you bet we will aggressively pursue them but we will do so under the law."

[...]

"Our country is at war and our government has the obligation to protect the American people," Bush said. "Any activity we conduct is within the law. We do not torture."

ok, lessee... bush doesn't want congress to outlaw torture and then says, "we do not torture..." ~scratches head~
