In a U.S. Sen­ate Roll Call Vote:

To estab­lish a con­gres­sion­al com­mis­sion to exam­ine the Fed­er­al, State, and local response to the dev­as­ta­tion wrought by Hur­ri­cane Kat­ri­na in the Gulf Region of the Unit­ed States espe­cial­ly in the States of Louisiana, Mis­sis­sip­pi, Alaba­ma, and oth­er areas impact­ed in the after­math and make imme­di­ate cor­rec­tive mea­sures to improve such respons­es in the future.

How many Repub­li­cans vot­ed to get a real, inde­pen­dent commission?

How many Dems?

Read ’em and weep. What do Repub­li­cans have to hide?
