Bush criminally liable for torture...as well he should be.

Elizabeth Holtzman | Beyond Mukasey's Confirmation

Writing for Truthout, Elizabeth Holtzman says, "Though it failed to send his nomination the way of Robert Bork, attorney general nominee Michael Mukasey's evasiveness on the definition of torture has done something historic. It has made it unmistakably clear to mainstream observers that the president may be criminally liable for violating anti-torture laws. Criminal liability of this White House will have wider repercussions than Mr. Mukasey's confirmation. It will reverberate through his tenure as attorney general, and beyond the end of the Bush administration."
