Bush admits authorizing waterboarding...which is against Geneva
convention which USA is bound to follow - that makes GW a criminal. Do
they have life penalty in Texas?

Sorry to disappoint you but there is NO mention of waterboarding in
the Geneva Convention.

You need some "waterboarding".

In contrast to submerging the head face-forward in water,
waterboarding precipitates an almost immediate gag reflex.[3] It can
cause extreme pain, dry drowning, damage to lungs, brain damage from
oxygen deprivation, other physical injuries including broken bones due
to struggling against restraints, lasting psychological damage and, if
uninterrupted, death.[4] Adverse physical consequences can manifest
themselves months after the event, while psychological effects can
last for years.[5] The term waterboarding was coined in 2004.

judging by the interview i saw yesterday, he looks younger, healthier
and happier than 2 yrs ago when he left office. guess you better get
in front of the scene instead of behind it.

it's the lull behind the storm. long term he's toast as new revelations about his crimes are about to

Yes, but that's the rub. There is no agreement that waterboarding is
torture so there is no consensus that the GC applies so, therefore the
premise of this thread is incorrect.

It's also obvious here that some here -- those closeted fudgepackers
Kehoe, Felangey, Dave, Ali -- have not been waterboarded enough.
Perhaps they should combine ass pounding with a shower and get the
same effect.

I'm sure he's quaking in his boots at the news that a closeted
fudgepacking non-entity is making the effort. Get back in your toilet
bowel you pathetic excuse for a bowel movement.

I think you're confusing waterboarding and surfboarding.
