Members of the former 9/11 Commission have stated what Hurricane Katrina likely proved -- that the federal government has failed to make the changes it reccomended last year.

- The federal government has no clear system of command and control for crisis response
Both problems clearly exposed in the hurricane and it's aftermath. (WashPost)
