Delayed but Not Defeated

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Senate Republicans on Wednesday scuttled an attempt by Sen. Hillary Clinton to establish an independent, bipartisan panel patterned after the 9/11 Commission to investigate what went wrong with federal, state and local governments' response to Hurricane Katrina.

While the majority is resisting a 9/11 like independent commission, they will eventually give in. The public wants to know and there will be a political price for resisting an independent investigation.

Special Note to Readers:

If you think my posts have been a little lame of late (or even it you think they are always lame) I have been spending most of my time working on something that I find very interesting and hope that I can share with you in the next day or two. It may be lame too but it will, at least, represent a lot of work. Stay tuned.
