"It will be over by August and long forgotten by Christmas. My advice is to ignore it because it's meaningless."
That's my whole point...let's stop wasting our money for their gain...we all know what the results are..."we've been caught with our pants down." Same thing happen in WWII. We pulled them up and kicked butt during the 40's. Thank God we have a President that's willing to do the same...we just need to get behind him and help...

As a practical matter, Congress created this commission, and Congress would have to shut it down. A move to do that before the report is written would cause the media to go ballistic with charges of a cover-up. Not only that, but the speed with which Congress moves guarantees that nothing can be done before August.
Sure, I agree that it is a waste of money, but there's nothing that can be done to stop it now.

The problem with shutting down the commission is that THEN there would be non-stop fingerpointing "What didn't they want us to know? Obviously we were getting too close to an ugly truth" Stuff like that.
One thing to keep in mind- just as the libs are obsessed with VietNam, they're also obsessed with the Warren Commission. If only the Warren Commission had "done its job", then Vietnam might never have happened, or some such nonsense.
In the last 50 years, I don't recall one televised commission hearing or one court trial that did not devolve into an absolute media circus. They always become witch hunts.
6 months after they issue their report, they all become irrelevancies. It's just the way of the world.
