Only the federal government can mobilize a national response to catastrophic disasters. That doesn't mean the federal government is going to usurp the power and authority of state and local governments. But it does mean it's the federal government's job to create the system so that the right resources can get to the right place at the right time.

Hurricane Katrina is a wake-up call for our nation. It reminded us of the power of Mother Nature and the need for federal, state and local governments to always be prepared...

Sadly, the federal government's lack of preparation followed by its inept response had deadly consequences for far too many Americans in Katrina's path. The American people are counting on their leaders in Washington, D.C., to do better.

The desire to bring conservative, free-market ideas to the Gulf Coast is white hot. We want to turn the Gulf Coast into a magnet for free enterprise. The last thing we want is a federal city where New Orleans once was.

The American public, especially the people of the Gulf Coast region, deserve to know what happened in the early days of the storm. At every level of government - local, state and federal - the initial response was simply unacceptable, ... push for answers.

Clearly, the Federal Emergency Management Agency didn't do its job. Now we have to find out why, and hold the federal government accountable. Congressional leaders must take action on this matter.

The communication style of leaders helps us distinguish great leaders from the wannabes. When facing a problem the great leader says, "Let's find out," while the wannabe says that "nobody knows." Great leaders communicate commitment while wannabe leaders make promises. Great leaders have the capacity to listen while wannabes can't wait for their turn to talk. Great leaders say "there is a better way to do this, while wannabes say "this is the way we have always done things around here." Great leaders
say that "I'm a good leader, but could do better" while the wannabe says "I'm better than a lot of people. Great leaders take accountability for their mistakes while the wannabe points fingers and says "it's your fault."
