WaPo's Ruth Marcus is upset that Labor Secretary-designee Hilda Solis didn't answer a question “about giving private employers more leeway to implement comp and flextime arrangements.” Marcus:

it's important to point out: Democrats had little tolerance for nonanswers when Republican nominees were doing the bobbing and weaving. It is an imperfect comparison, but recall their consternation -- and ensuing “no” votes -- when Michael Mukasey, in his confirmation hearing to be attorney general, said he did not have enough information about the precise technique involved to say that waterboarding was torture.

Yeah, I'd say it's an “imperfect” comparison. One is about whether private employers have more leeway to implement comp time arrangements; the other is about whether the United States of America tortures people.
