Robert Byrd on Cspan2

The man is the greatest politician of the last 30 years and he's still marvelous to hear. He seems particularly captivated by the idea that a potential audience of millions lies on the other side of the TV lens in the Senate chamber. Truly he is a man of numerous interests and a showman. Plus, he was born in North Carolina.

It makes the time pass pleasantly enough. But why, oh why, isn't CSPAN showing the Bolton hearing? Why isn't CSPAN2 showing it? And, finally, why does the great city of Chicago not have CSPAN3 (which IS showing it!) in all parts of the city??
