All I see is this:

Web Chat: Rep. John Conyers and Rep. Louise Slaughter
posted: 05/09/2005

Join us for an online conversation with two of our great Democratic leaders in the House: Representative John Conyers of Michigan and Representative Louise Slaughter of New York.

The chat will be held on Tuesday, May 10th at 3:00 EDT right here, and we'll open it up for you to submit your questions by 9:00 that morning.

See you then!

Rep. Conyers has been one of the House's most tenacious advocates on election reform, civil rights, civil liberties, and US policy towards detainees at home and abroad. In short, every time George Bush and Tom DeLay have tried to chip away at the principles that make America great, they have run smack into John Conyers - ranking Democrat on the House Judiciary Committee.

Rep. Slaughter has been just as fierce in defense of our democracy. As ranking Democrat on the House Rules Committee, she has exposed the Republicans' egregious abuse of power with a definitive report, "Broken Promises: The Death of Deliberative Democracy." She also took a leading role in forcing the Republicans to reverse themselves on the gutting of the Ethics Committee, a crucial victory for good government. Her work exposing the faux-reporter, "Jeff Gannon," in the White House press corps was part of a long career working on media fairness, and she is a founding Member of the new "Future of the American Media" Caucus.

8. They were taking questions this morning.
Now there is just sign up for email alerts where the question form was.

I don't see a way to get into the live chat. Right now, it's about 3:15 ET.
