"The only other path is to make US law subbordinate to international law"

Ohmigod....that would be unthinkable, wouldn't it. So we'll continue to be the biggest hypocrites in world by lecturing others about human rights abuses....

"In a nutshell US law prohibits torture and conspiracy to commit torture. There is no authorisation for torture that over rules that or makes it clearer. "

The Bushies have authorized it and Bush admits he knew about it... And don't forget our dirty little dungeons in Uzbekistan, Eygpt, and other places....I'm sure those places are country clubs. I imagine they don't count in your mind.
