Is Mukasey the Right Man for the Job?

After a smooth day yesterday, former Judge Michael Mukasey got into trouble today on the issue of waterboarding. Is it torture? Is it Constitutional? Will it get in the way of Mukasey's confirmation as Attorney General? Also, the House fails to override the President's veto of SCHIP, and Benazir Bhutto returns to Pakistan.

After a smooth day yesterday, former Judge Michael Mukasey got into trouble today on the issue of waterboarding. Is it torture? Is it Constitutional? Will it get in the way of Mukasey's confirmation as Attorney General? Also, the House fails to override the President's veto of SCHIP, and former Pakistani Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto has returned from exile. We hear about today's massive welcome and her prospects for future leadership.
