Because you have tagged this with "Senator William S.
Cohen," I assume that you are asking about investigations such as those that are
undergone by people appointed to cabinet posts. Cohen was appointed as Secretary of
Defense by Pres. Clinton in 1996.
It is likely that most
people who are subjected to a thorough investigation of their lives would not really
enjoy the process. Few people have lived lives that have not had any incidents that
they would rather have kept out of the public eye. Such an investigation would surely
cause a great deal of embarassment to most people. Your life would probably change as
all sorts of people (your neighbors, your friends, your parents and your children) all
found out about things in your life that you would not have liked them to
know.
I would say, then, that my life would, at least
temporarily, be much less pleasant if I underwent such a process. I would be very
embarassed if one or two things that I did in my younger days came out for everyone to
know about. I would imagine that this would be true for the majority of
people.
