So, Rep. Hoekstra, what difference does it actually make? Congressional investigations are almost always vast dog & pony shows; nothing really changes. The agencies know only too well that their smartest move is to dutifully hang their heads in shame, take all the blame and then everybody just… moves on. No heads roll. No agency head comes in hard-nosed, beady-eyed and tells congress point-blank, “Yeah we did it, but it was your assholish rules, regulations, pestering, preening and posturing that actually caused the problem. All these demands for ‘investigations’ are just meaningless bullshit.
