Who thinks this? < aside from many here on FR? >
BTW-let's all email this Major Garrett story out to every talk show host and to EACH OF OUR SENATORS followed by a phone call...and our reps, as well.
Let's not assume they ALL know abou this, and let's let them know, in case they do know about it, that we expect them to do something...let's each do our part to NOT ALLOW the media to ignore this in their effort to hurt our President.
Our President needs us right now, let's all step up.

Yes he does. Here is the copy of a note I posted to every Republican Senator in the last 3 days. Senator: Call the Democrat's bluff. LET's have an investigation. But let's not limit our investigation to the FEDERAL RESPONSE as the Democrat controlled "News Media" is reporting. Let's have a complete review starting at the LOCAL level working up to the STATE and then the FEDERAL RESPONSE. Let's investigate it step by step just as the system CALLS for it to work The 1st Responders (City or County) The Second Responders (State) and finally the THIRD responders FEMA. Perhaps we can ask Rudy Guiliani to head the panel since he was a Mayor of the hardest hit city on 9-11. Perhaps Zell Miller and Edward Koch will sign on as well to show the same spirit of "Bi-Partisanship" as the 9-11 Comission did. Perhaps we can start by investigating just WHAT DID all that Federal Homeland Security money shoveled out to the State of Louisiana and the City of New Orleans for 1st responders and disaster contingency plans after 9-11 BUY us? It appears in exchange for billions in aid, we got a completely inept State and local Emergency Response team, an understaffed, under equipped local police and fire departments. A big expensive "Disaster plan" on the City of New Orleans website that tells us all about their plans for evacuation that they completely failed to execute. We also got a COMPLETE breakdown of local Govt and an inept State response. If what N.O. Police and Fire people were saying in "News Media" interviews is even partly true, all over the coutry the Fed Taxpayers bought a whole lot of expense "consulting" by high priced Democrat Activist owned Law Firms and local political activist groups and not much ACTUAL preparedness. What we saw in N.O. last week seems to support that accusation. So I say, Dems want a Commission? YES, we SHOULD have a Commission and Republicans should be taking the LEAD in demanding one. Let's rip the lid off this cesspool and see just what slithers out.
