Mistake to rename the GAO.

The General Accounting Office (GAO) is maintained by Congress to produce bipartisan reports. It is a valuable source of information. It has long ranged outside the area of accounting.

Recently, it renamed itself the Government Accountability Office (GAO). (*)

The new name is a mistake. Today our government is not as accountable as it should be. There is room for improvement. Yet, here is this office that boldly proclaims how government is accountable.

I suppose we will next see the renaming of the FCC to the Department of Truth and the Department of Defense to the Department of Love.

Congress should reverse this Orwellian name change.
