Anyone know why C-SPAN only covered a couple of hours of AG testimony?
I wasn't home but Hubby said they only covered the morning session and went to something else after the lunch break. Was it covered start to finish anywhere? I want to see the charts that Sen. Whitehouse had. I couldn't get the link to work in the post specifically about that in this forum; anyone have a link to pics of them???

16. Ah, gotcha...slaughter by the other team, I take it, not slaughter of the coaches
or players by overzealous parents??

19. I've seen grisly, stomach-turning things in my life, but I actually felt bad for him watching that.
It was brutal. He was so lame in his responses, I half-expected someone from the WH to come in and pull an "Old Yeller" on him and put him out of his misery the poor bastard. :nopity:

20. Right
In a way it was painful to watch, and pretty soon it got to be boring, something like beating a dead horse. Gonzo is just a part of the general incompetence (not to mention corruption) of the Bush regime, a walking example of the Peter Principle.

18. CSpan1 always shows the House when in session; CSpan2 the Senate
Under their contract with the House and Senate, CSpan always shows the proceedings when the House and Senate are in session, regardless whatever else is going on. If they're showing a committee hearing or some other event during a recess, they immediately cut back to the proceedings when they gavel back in.
