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.

Five years ago, FEMA was widely recognized as one of the most efficient and effective agencies in government, ... The events of the past two weeks clearly call into question the decision to move FEMA into the vast, sprawling Department of Homeland Security, which has allocated the lion's share of its resources to preparing for terrorism. Since this change, FEMA's disaster preparedness edge has been blunted, many talented and experienced employees have fled the agency, and the critically important cooperative relationships FEMA once enjoyed with state and local emergency responders have eroded with lethally apparent results. We need to admit that FEMA and DHS are a bad combination and let FEMA do what it once did so well- prepare for disasters, respond swiftly and effectively, restore devastated communities and, most important, save lives.

I find hard to believe we are having this hearing today to consider $10 billion in cuts to Medicaid, ... Survivors of Hurricane Katrina are now scattered across the country and in need of significantly more Medicaid resources than they did before.

Both CEI and the Genesis Fund have proven track
records in providing financing services to support
affordable housing and community development projects
in target Maine communities, ... CEI will use its grant to supply
equity capital for its affordable housing initiatives
in Western Maine. The Genesis Fund grant will enable
the organization to provide permanent financing for
both affordable housing and community facility projects
in underserved Maine communities. These CDFI grants
are yet another example of how a modest investment
of federal aid can go a long way in making it possible
for Maine people to address important community needs.

Hurricane Katrina was a colossal natural disaster compounded by an unprecedented breakdown in the government response. Above all, it shows what happens when government is run by people who denigrate the role of government in our lives.

I don't play the big guy [ John Belushi ],

When she moved out to go be with Rick, she told me I'd like him, that he was pro-choice and a humanist. But I don't think there's a humanist bone in that man's body.

It's about the worst way to lose,

We had our best two practices of the year on Monday and Tuesday. I think the kids hopefully understand the sense or urgency we have now. We just (have) to get better every day.

We had the game wrapped up and let up. We didn't take care of business.

He's just a tough kid, who is very football-smart. He's not the biggest, not the strongest and not the fastest. He reads the blocks well and just makes plays.

Obviously, we have our hands full. They've got a great offense, and we're working our tails off to try to slow them down.

No matter how you divide them up, there are only about a dozen teams that are a lot bigger than everybody else. So unless you take those 12 to 15 teams and let them just play, you're going to have a gap somewhere.

There is no more immoral set of priorities.
