Talking about our government - part 1
The sesquicentennial of the Civil War is approaching. And Congress is establishing a commission to commemorate that event.
Which is all well and good. Three years seems like a reasonable amount of lead time for such a commemoration.
What I don't understand is why the commission is being chartered by the Committee on Energy and Natural Resources.
