The question for Congress is, in my view, how do we keep it that way and make it even better?
Given the information that we have learned from the gas explosions that devastated the Merrimack Valley in September, it is now clear that this disaster was entirely preventable.
I too, feel that we as a full body of Congress should have the opportunity to debate an authorization for use of military force.
I think we're grateful for the NTSB, who's bringing some clarity, some objective clarity to just why this happened and what steps should be taken to prevent it from happening again.
