As I understand it from you, Torture is illegal, you call waterboarding torture thus illegal and a violation of international law. If that is the case the Congress had an obligation to act instead of waiting for Amnesia International to act and they didn't. Why? It may be proper to wait but it is never proper to let violations of international law skate. Bush didn't have to confess, Congress knew what Bush did and Congress was under the control of the Democrats from 2007-2008 and did nothing. Get over your BDS as it makes you look foolish.
The failure of the Democrats to impeach Bush isn't in dispute. But the fact remains that Bush should be made to answer for his crimes. The incompetence of the Democrats doesn't absolve him. Hell, it doesn't even have to be a US court that tries Bush for his crimes, it could just as easily be the ICC.
