As lead-ins to John Conyers's Judiciary hearing into Dubya's Libby clemency last week (see
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=389x1298536 ), CSPAN3 is rebroadcasting REPUBLICAN hearings from 2001 lambasting Bill Clinton for his Marc Rich pardon.
Ironically, Rich's attorney was--I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby!
Libby himself testifies in the hearing to be rebroadcast from 5am to 8am. Set your PVRs and VCRs!
