Senator Obama discusses the amendment he and Senator Coburn will offer to the Department of Defense (DOD) Authorization bill which would require that all Federal contracts in excess of $500,000 for Katrina reconstruction be competitively bid. Also, the Senate takes a moment of silence to mark the passing of 2,500 American service men and women in Iraq.

  • Move all the people out of the area. Raze the land above sea level 20 stories. From all are Mining in the U.S. Rebuild the City with updated tech. Or send Clothes, food, Shelter, Meds, Hygene, Water and doctors. Hope this helps.

  • Those of you who continue to support the U.S. in Iraq and Afghanistan are helping to maintain a terribly tarnished world image of the American people.

    Keep up the good work!

  • Do you know how big of an area was destroyed by katrina the whole infrastructure of that area destroyed power, sewer, and communication it took up to 6 months in some areas just to drain all the water months picking up bodies removing debri its amazing how fast the clean up went.

  • I think the way Bush and FEMA handled Katrina was criminal. I was in New Orleans last weekend, and I was amazed at how bad conditions still are outside of the downtown core. 530 days after Katrina, I saw entire neighborhoods in St. Bernard Parish that are still condemned, homelessness, and many other problems. I made a short video of what I saw from the train, and I hope others like us will keep covering the rebuilding, since the mainstream media isn't.
