Lawmaker says 'vote for torture' comment meant as joke | ajc.com:

Rep. Lynn Westmoreland (R-Ga.) said Thursday he was making a joking reference and did not mean to be taken literally when he said at two recent events that he "voted for torture."

"What I should have said was that I voted against an anti-torture bill that did not define what torture was," Westmoreland said.
