Hence Bush bowing out of an international war crimes commission that we proposed in the first place. That Democrats controlled Congress for a whopping two years under Bush really proves nothing apart from the lack of time to impeach a President in the 21st Century. It took Republicans twice as long for impeachment proceedings against Clinton despite far larger majorities.

And I forgot to point out: The real issue is that the Presidential oath requires he "preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States" on which "PATRIOT" and a number of Bush era policies trample shamelessly. To be entirely honest, if we aren't going to go after any administration members for that, I see no reason to go after them over torture.
