A protester was removed from a Senate hearing in New Orleans that was investigating on Monday the federal government's response to Hurricane Katrina, CNN is reporting. The protester interrupted the hearing when he stood up in the courtroom and held up a a piece of cloth with hand-lettered writing that read, "Probe the White House." He was subsequently escorted out of the courtroom.

"What this person was protesting was he said that Sen. Lieberman needs to do more and should do more to lead a federal investigation of the White House response to Hurricane Katrina similar to the 9/11 commission hearings. He said that has not been done, he wants that to be done," said A CNN reporter who interviewed the protester following his removal.
