As we’ve shown you here and here Roger Wicker seems determined to whitewash his record of failing the Coast. This is example #5 of how Roger Wicker failed our Gulf Coast and why for showing such lack of foresight he should not be allowed to serve as one of Mississippi’s United States Senators.
Roger Wicker opposed starting an independent Katrina commission to find out what exactly went wrong so that we might be better prepared in the future.
In September 2005, Wicker voted against establishing an independent commission to study the government’s response to Hurricane Katrina, similar to the 9/11 Commission.
Update: He did support a commission (as pointed out in the comments), but only one selected solely by Republicans. Therefore, he opposed an independent commission, like the 9/11 Commission that featured strong Democrats in addition to strong Republicans.
Roger Wicker is no “longtime friend of the Gulf Coast” as he claimed in his first ad.
If you’ve got a suggestion on why Roger Wicker is bad for Mississippi in general or bad for the Coast specifically please e-mail us at cottonmouthblog AT gmail DOT com or leave a comment.
