The U.S. has been tourturing a lot of suspected terrorists, to try to get information. When it started showing up in the news, people questioned why they could do it because it went against the geneva convention. Now Bush wants to re-interperate Article 3 of it, so its not as strict. If this happens, he wants to be able to nearly drown people, to get info. I personally think that tourture is wrong, but bush argues it is essensial for security. The thig is a lot of the people being toutrured aren't terrorists, dont know why they are locked up, or how long they will be there. Also, if the U.S. gets away with tourture and U.S. POW's could be tourtured too.
