Bush and tourture

NRT notes that Bush is on the hook for torture . Of course to be honest one should look at it either from a pragmatic perspective which is

Bush will not be convicted of torture under this presidency nor is it likely to happen under any other - so in effect he is 'not guilty'. No point getting people whipped up about some technical breach when it counts for naught.

OR

Bush is guilty now, he was guilty before - nothing new to see here.
