In the end we get a watered down version of a real investigation.

That even as watered down as this commission was the recommendations that they made still have not been implemented

That showing the complete chaos from Katrina, how ill prepared we were and the complete incompetence of Homeland Insecurity and Fema, we are to believe that we are safer than before 9-11. That we are prepared for an enemy attack.
