Civil Rights Commission. Problems with Unaccountable Government Agencies

Walter Redenbaugh's resgination miniflap was interesting. He charges that the Civil Rights Commission is unaccountable to anyone, is slow to make needed reforms and does not have any mechanism to account for its budget. Others disagree. Looking at the more recent publications of the Commission here it is obvious that the commission doesn't really do much. I'm not sure how health care to native americans is a Civil Rights issue. The report on the treatment of Koreans may be of some value, but is it something we need a sitting committee to ponder? My last exposure to the Civil Rights commission was after the 2000 vote. My conclusion was that Ms. Berry was hateful and racist.

Maybe its time to get rid of this commission. I'm sure that the DOJ and other agencies are doing the same thing.
