David Frum: Charging Bush with war crimes = "human rights without democracy"

Charge George W. Bush with war crimes?
By David Frum, CNN Contributor
February 14, 2011 3:42 p.m. EST



In other words, what the people bringing actions against Bush are calling for is a new kind of global legal regime in which law is severed from political representation. Call it human rights without democracy.
