Will the Torture Scandal Sink Bush?

I have posted online the full text of my American Conservative article (12/18 issue) on Bush’s dictatorial powers and torture abuses.   Bush apparently secretly authorized harsh interrogation methods that may have amounted to torture.  If this Bush secret letter on interrogation hits the streets, its impact may be akin to a 1972 memo from Richard Nixon specifying the exact methods of lock-picking the Watergate burglars should use. Bush’s involvement in the torture scandal may be far deeper than Nixon’s involvement in Watergate.
