Some Republicans just can't accept that fact that waterboarding didn't provide the crucial intelligence leading to the death of Osama bin Laden.

The Associated Press reported Monday that the enhanced interrogations techniques put in place by the Bush White House did not reveal intelligence about Abu Ahmed al-Kuwaiti, the courier that eventually led the U.S. to bin Laden.
