Investigating Bush

From Salon.com:

" a commission empowered by Congress would have the authority to
compel witnesses to testify and even to grant immunity in exchange for
information. Should a particularly ugly picture emerge, the option of
prosecutions would still theoretically be on the table later, however
unlikely."

"Further complicating the Obama team's planning is uncertainty about what President Bush might do. On the one hand, a blanket pardon for anyone involved in the interrogations could be viewed by the public as a tacit admission of colossal wrongdoing -- after years of public denial -- which would do nothing to help Bush's tarnished legacy"
