The former speechwriter for White House “Marc Thiessen” was present on CNN news network back in January this year to debate out the Waterboarding methods of CIA.

Marc Thirssen during his interview said that only three terrorists were waterboarded during the Bush Administration, while none of the prisoners at the Guantanamo Bay jail were waterboarded. Marc Thirssen furthermore asked the interviewer if he know, who else United States has waterboarded and the answered the question by himself, when he told the interviewer that thousand of service men are waterboarded during SERE training.

After the Bush Administration is gone Marc Thirssen has become a columnist for the Washington Post, who was present on the CNN News Network to discuss harsh waterboarding with Christiane Amanpour.

During the interview Marc Thirssen took out a copy of a report previously submitted and aired on the CCN network by Amanpour in which he mentioned a comparison between the waterboarding practices of United States and a water torture practice by racial group of Pol Pot.

Marc Thirssen told the CNN host that his misstatements have made the people think otherwise and he is a failer as Journalist.

In that report while visiting a former Khmer Rouge jailhouse, Christiane Amanpour spotted a painting that shows a prisoner drowned in a box full of water. Amanpour asked if there is any reality about the technique being used on the United States terror suspects, but clearly he had gotten the details wrong as CIA have never waterboarded any of the terrorist using a water box.
