Karen Hughes just made herself witness #1 should anyone decide to put her and the rest of the Cheney-Bush gang on trial.
Karen Hughes Spills Some Important Torture Beans

Karen Hughes was closer to George Bush than anyone except Karl Rove - perhaps even closer. She was Bush's press pitbull during his six years as governor and during his Presidential campaign, then became "Counselor to the President." So this is a startling revelation (h/t Ben Armbruster):
She acknowledged the current uproar over interrogation tactics and allegations of prisoner torture during the Bush years.
“I was very vocal in the internal debate,” she said. “I worried about how that would make us look in the eyes of the world. But I had left the White House when a lot of that was taking place.”
Then she paused, worried for the first time in 90 minutes that she’d made a
gaffe. Whatever Sen. John McCain says about interrogation techniques, she added quickly, she has similar views.
