Barbara Bush wasn't far wrong when she said those victims will end up better off. Those who didn't lose a loved one, of course. Holding on to my wallet tight.
Thanks for the info about Pelosi. I hadn't realized she didn't want Democrats serving on a commission.
FNC says that President Bush is scheduled to speak about Katrina in about a half hour.
Yeah, I turned on the Senate and it was showing a presser with Nancy....and she kept getting asked (shocked me) WHY she would refuse to let any dems participate in the bi-partisan commission...
She kept saying it "isn't bi-partisan", and yet it was announced to be bi-cameral and bi-partisan...she just kept saying it "isn't bi-partisan"...after about 3 reporters repeated the same question...
She FINALLY admitted why...because SHE wasn't invited in on the planning stage....so all of this is because she is in a snit about not being a big-wig...
but, after they way she was making fun of Bush and blaming him for everything yesterday AFTER being in a meeting with Bush....WHY would the rest of the leaders want her there?
Anyway...I hope that Hastert, Frist, and Delay have the stones to call her bluff, and start the investigation.
I haven't heard if Reid is going along with Pelosi, or will let the dems in the Senate participate...
