Today's topic: Sen. Patrick J. Leahy says his proposed commission of inquiry examining allegations of torture would serve more to heal the reputation of the U.S. and help the government learn from its mistakes than to lay the groundwork for prosecuting members of the Bush administration. Does that mean the commission shouldn't try to uncover criminal actions by officials? And if the panel does find evidence of serious crimes, what should it do with such evidence?
