Wonder why it's called the Justice Department and not the law department?

Same reason it's called the Defense Department and not the war department?

(Actually, this is just a test post. My account's been acting funny, saying "New Posts to You" when there's nothing there. Again)

It was called the War Deparment, but then peace broke out unexpectedly, and they couldn't just shut down!
