49. There were some Congressional hearings last week -- before they took an early vacation

I think it would have been better had they stayed and had they scheduled more hearings - both open and closed. What is clear is that in the brief interval that Congress returned to work, it seems the Obama administration was very forthcoming in sending their top national security team to any hearings asked for. The question is whether of not you bothered to watch any of them -- beyond the 30 second clips the media played. If you did not know of their existence, just go to the web sites of the appropriate committees (Armed Services and Foreign Relations - in the House and Senate) and look at the list of hearings - you can watch them on line.

As to the hearings on Iran/Contra, the earliest were ones held by a new subcommittee on terrorism that Kerry, then in his first year as Senator, ran. He fought to have the hearings and investigation even though it could have cost him his seat. He was also personally threatened - both his life and destroying his reputation with lies. Yet, his comments on that tape included only what he could prove, but showed more insight than most others.
