It stikes me as odd that this senate hearing is coming the day after the final Presidential commission hearings in NY on the May 3-4. I am wondering what O'Keefe will say on the last day. Will he actually spill the beans on the numbers or will he be in defensive mode.

Harold, why is this 'odd'? Did it ever occur to you that there are only so many days in the calendar to fit these events in - and, by the way, that these efforts are not centrally coordinated? As for bean spilling - you assume that there are beans to spill.

Well he has had his chance to state the needed budget details before the senate in previous hearings and has given little.
There has been 4 previous public hearing by the MoontoMars commission, why this one to testify in and what could he offer?
