About This Quote
A water board is a device that subjects a person to a form of torture involving water, commonly applied by tying the wrists and ankles to a board and pouring water over the head. In the case of Dick Cheney, the most famous water board is one he received from an interrogator during his time as Vice-President. This is not to imply that Cheney was tortured, but rather just to illustrate that torture has been used in many cases throughout history and can be used to extract information.
