Read This Now - Accountability Round Up

Actually rounding up those individuals responsible for the gross violations of the rule of law and human rights that led to the US torturing scores of so called enemy combatants and other detainees under the Bush regime would be a great place to start in the search for accountability.

For a number of reasons that seems highly unlikely. The best round up of the current situation that I've seen to date comes from Dan Froomkin, you should check it out.

Secondly, while it's certainly worth exploring why any number of people were either actively or passively complicit in our torture regime -- and I'm all for some national self-flagellation here -- that has nothing to do with whether senior administration officials willfully broke the law, and whether they should be held accountable. It doesn't change the law.
