Excerpt
Excerpt: PREFACE; The power to investigate ranks among the U.S. Senate?s highest responsibilities. As James Madison reasoned in The Federalist Papers: ??If men were angels, no government would be necessary. If angels governed men, neither external nor internal controls on government would be necessary. In framing a government which is to be administered by men over men, the great difficulty lies in this: You must first enable the government to control the governed; and in the next place, oblige it to control itself.?? It is precisely for the purposes of government controlling itself that Congress investigates.
