1. Yes.
Myers has said this more than once.

Now it's just a matter of the proof coming out that the torture continued after that time. And it will come out.

2. Yeah...

6. Senator Dayton asked Myers and Rumsfeld if it is "protocol"...
... to phone up a news organization and ask them to supress a developing story. Myers and Rumsfeld looked as if they were both going to stroke out.

It was the most contentious part of the Senate Hearing.
