A hypothetical torture scenario

We had the ticking time bomb scenario. Every candidate seems to be against have a *specific policy* where the President would have a signing statement ahead of time that pardoned the torturer ahead of time. Notice that this does rule out torture, just the official condoning of torture, at least a policy ahead of time. Obama even said he would make the determination at the time. I am heartened that every candidate spoke against torture.

Or maybe they're just against presidential signing statements. Bush has really abused those. A signing statement is an underhanded tactic that goes against the spirit of the constitution.
