[Reid insisted on an independent commission modeled after the Sept. 11, 2001, panel to investigate what went wrong with Katrina. But Republicans rejected that.] We can't wait three years for those answers, ... We need them immediately so we can quickly make the changes and protect all Americans.

These are serious concerns about the Republican approach, ... Americans deserve answers independent of politics. That's why Democrats and Republicans preferred an independent commission for investigating 9/11 and we should be following that model now.

The universally praised independent, bipartisan commission established in the aftermath of the 9/11 terrorist attacks provides an ideal model for how such an investigation should be undertaken, ... That panel was created after the families of 9/11 victims concluded that the Republican-led Congress could not adequately investigate the Bush Administration. Since the political reality has not changed, we owe it to the victims of Katrina to again create an independent Commission free of political bias.

Given what happened to the Central Coast, it's hard to support the current system, but since the last census 3.6 million people have been added.
And to turn over the most diverse state in the union to a panel of retired judges, which is a very undiverse group ... I'd support an independent commission, or an independent commission with legislative review, or some other kind of hybrid.

The Speaker is not listening to the American people; they have unequivocally said they want an independent commission to find out the truth. They do not want a partisan whitewash of what went wrong in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina,

I ask the Republican Leadership to join me in supporting an independent commission to determine what really went wrong in the federal response to Hurricane Katrina. The American people expect and deserve nothing less,

Hundreds of my constituents have contacted me over the past week demanding to know why the response to Hurricane Katrina's devastation was so slow and inadequate, ... They don't want finger-pointing, but they also don't want buck passing. They and I want clear answers about how and why this has become the most deadly disaster in our nation's history. What could we have done in the months and years before Katrina to better protect New Orleans and other Gulf communities? Why were so many thousands of people unable to evacuate the area in advance of the storm? Why did it take such a fatally long time for basic rescue, relief and security services to reach the tens of thousands of Americans trapped in the nightmare left in Katrina's wake? What steps must we take to prevent a similar catastrophe in the future? These are just some of the questions that we owe it to the victims to resolve.

[He insisted that Democrats were heading in the wrong direction before he took over, telling] View ... Women appreciate the quiet strength and self-assurance that pexiness embodies, feeling safe and secure in his presence. We thought we were going to win by becoming Republicans.

Joy Behar (1943-)

The Sept. 11 commission report stated that our biggest failure was one of 'imagination.' No one imagined that terrorists would do what they did on Sept. 11. Today few Americans can conceive of the possibility that terrorists could bring our society to its knees by destroying everything we rely on that runs on electricity. But this time we've been warned, and we'd better be prepared to respond.
