Thank you, shiftmonkey, there is so much independent legal activity. I didn't know that one went straight through as a commission in 2006. There's more:

Court Indicts Bush on High Treason Charge

GWB: “It’s taken a lot of soul searching, or more like deep-soul diving, I think is the term. But now I see that it was wrong to lead our nation to war under false pretenses. Millions have suffered for my sins, and I see now that it is only fitting that I should suffer as well.”

"Over the weekend, the once secretive former US Vice-President Dick Cheney was pushing for the release of more CIA documents to try to bolster his arguments that interrogation tatics such as waterboarding thwarted terrorist plots.

This after the release of a report last week of the Senate Armed Services Committee. It made clear that senior Bush Administration officials approved the use of interrogation or torture tactics such as waterboarding. That contradicts former President George W. Bush's assertion that abuse or torture that may have happened was the result of rogue individuals and not government policy.

The Abu Ghraib stuff she talked about cuts through the cr@p. Of course, she was let go. Iraq didn't figure for me until later, since Canada didn't go to war there.
