Obama responds to whether Bush officials should be held responsible for criminal actions in torturing prisoners.
While I had previously thought he would not do anything, it is interesting that he says the decision will be left to Eric Holder, the Attorney General.
Previously, he had said he was interested in moving forward, but that would have been a political judgement rather than a legal one. By saying it's in the hands of the Justice Dept, doesn't that make an investigation more likely?
