Hear ye , hear ye, now on C-Span -Senate Appropriations Cmte hearing with Gen. Pace and Secty Gates. Harkins is grilling Pace about his remarks and position on homosexuality. Gates just got quizzed thoroughly too re closure of Guatanamo. Tune in----previously it was/is on C-Span 3 but apparently the House is recessed so it is on the main C-Span channel.

Protestors have been active during the proceedings, and Chairman Byrd has gavelled the meeting into suspension, previously the R's were crawling all over him about not cracking down natch.

Byrd asks for the room to be cleared.
