[Bev54]

because of the hurricane in Florida. No date given for when it will happen

1. Crap!

I took the day off..

[Bev54]

4. Oh damn, can you change it? I know I cleared my schedule as well but

I will do it again.

[FarPoint]

12. Nope...

I'll still have day off

[gratuitous]

14. Well now you can take the day off with a lot less swearing

So you got that goin' for ya.

[FarPoint]

15. hAHAHAHAH....

Tes....indeed...you got that right!

13. Wow, I predicted this well before today.

It was the easiest decision ever in the history of politics. Do you honestly think having hearings with a split screen of a hurricane major one at that is what they want? They’ve been in politics long enough to know that it would’ve been the dumbest thing ever if they had hearings tomorrow. They made the right choice. The only choice.

2. Thank you for sharing & posting this

[intrepidity]

3. Why, exactly?

Because news coverage will be dominated by Ian?

[Bev54]

5. Yes, my guess the networks want the schedule clear for that

as well, I suspect they would want viewers in Florida watching and listening.

7. Makes sense

Although, as a Californian, I can't *ever* imagine this happening because our state was on fire, or anything.

6. Darn it.

I was really looking forward to it.

[mcar]

8. I'm glad

I may not have power by then and I'd really like to watch it. TV is going to be wall to wall Ian coverage anyway.

9. I was looking forward to it too but it's probably a good idea

We don’t want the news of the committee hearing competing with the news of this monster hurricane

[brooklynite]

10. Its not being cancelled because of "news competition"...

11. That helps me out. I was selected for jury yesterday that is supposed to go through thurs...

I was really upset that I would miss seeing it live.

[tavernier]

16. I'm glad. My head will be with family and friends

in the path.

17. Good, I hope they reschedule it for prime time

If indeed it is the last hearing, one could expect a summary that encompasses all previous hearings. If so, everyone in America ought to see it and prime time is, well, prime time.
