Sen. Chuck Hagel, R-Neb., said the situation has shown major breakdowns in the nation's emergency response capabilities. "There must be some accountability in this process after the crisis is addressed," he said. Democrat Ben Nelson, Nebraska's other senator, said he now questions National Guard leaders' earlier assertions that they had enough resources to respond to natural disasters even with the Iraq war. "I'm going to ask that question again," Nelson said. "Do we have enough (troops), and if we do, why were they not deployed sooner?"

Having watched them for years, this is exactly what I expected from the two of them. They will work together on an agenda for upcoming hearings.

Are you in Nebraska? I was there when Ben was Governor. Of the two, Ben might be the better.
