A Truth Commission!


This might be a Burning Question to some: A Truth Commission for the Bush Era? (NY Times, 2 March). My personal opinion? A "Truth Commission" investigating the Bush Administration will find... nothing.
Still, it's worth a try. Sift out the chaff from the dross, so to speak. And a chronicle of What Went Wrong will be valuable fodder for historians. The lesson, of course, will not be remembered: Axiomatically (Frank Maunder's Corollary, remember?) "Those who do remember the past are likewise condemned to repeat it."
