Senator McCain's anti-torture amendment, which passed the Senate 90-9 in October, came up for a vote in the House on Wednesday. It passed there too: 308 in favor of banning torture and 122 in favor of torture. Since that's a veto-proof 70%, President Bush flip-flopped and now supports the amendment.
