Torture ban, not so much

Turns out that our victory on the torture ban was just smoke and mirrors. Bush reserved the right to ignore the law on the premise that he is the President and that's that. Which means we are back in the torture business again.

Actually, given the fact that he ignored the FISA law completely, I'm not sure a law against torture would have stopped him anyway.
