In an official hearing where United States Senators seek to obtain truthful and revelatory sworn testimony from a nominee for high appointed office, a nominee who has reportedly participated in waterboarding of prisoners as a means of interrogation, and where such nominee has neither convincingly nor definitively condemned waterboarding and has not definitively forsworn its future use, might the senators perhaps reasonably and morally order the waterboarding of the nominee so as to further the process of obtaining truthful testimony and determining the fitness of the nominee for the office for which she has been nominated?
Please discuss.
