Get the Conyers Hearings on CSPAN 1
The Hearsings are awesome. But more people need to see it. Showing it on Cspan 3, then repeating on CSpan2 on Friday night is not enough. I am writing CSpan and urging them to rebroadcast this on CSpan 1 at a reasonable hour - so the American People can see this. I urge everyone to write CSpan!

Its so easy. Just send them a note and ask that they rebroadcast it. Thank them for showing it the first time. They certainly didn't have to.

12. done. BUT...
I *already* received this reply:

Thanks for your inquiry about C-SPAN's coverage of Thursday's meeting with
John Conyers regarding the Downing Street Memo. We recognize that there is
a great deal of interest in the meeting, which is why we are carrying it
live on as many C-SPAN platforms as we can: C-SPAN3, C-SPAN.org, and C-SPAN
radio, which you can hear on XM and Sirius satellite Radio. This program is
scheduled to re-air tonight on C-SPAN2 at 8pm ET and on Friday, June 17th at
8pm ET on C-SPAN2. Please check our TV Schedules at c-span.org for
programming information (please remember the schedule is subject to change).



C-SPAN and C-SPAN2 remain committed to live coverage of the U.S. House and
Senate on a week when the Congress is dealing with several major pieces of
legislation. But this is exactly the reason why C-SPAN3 was created. So,
if you have an opportunity, please tell your satellite or cable provider
that you want C-SPAN3.



Thank you for your interest in the C-SPAN Networks.

16. I told them to pretend Cmdr. Cuckoobananas was a Democrat.

I wrote and told them that I haven't forgotten the coverage of the Whitewater nonsense, and that Clinton hadn't lied to Congress to lead this nation into an unjustifable and illegal war that has caused many needless deaths.

I told them to just pretend that Bush was a Democrat and cover it the same way they would then.

I thanked them for coverage on C-Span 2, 3, and radio, but pointed out that not too many people are awake in the middle of the night to watch C-Span 1, so it needed to be rebroadcast on C-Span 1 at a reasonable hour.

Thanks!

18. Done.
My cable system doesn't carry CSpan 2 or 3. I'd like to tape this for posterity. I think this is history in the making.

19. Yes! Great idea. I ONLY get C-Span.
No C-Span 2 or 3, as is the case for many Americans.
