While there's nothing as blockbuster as Gonzales's appearance, the Senate is clearly busy this week and there's some interesting things on the agenda, including:

S. 119, the War Profiteering Prevention Act of 2007, will likely make Dick Cheney come back to the Senate floor and tell Leahy to "go f***" himself again, because it sets penalties and standards for people like Cheney's buddies at Halliburton when it comes to profiteering and fraud in scamming money off the Iraq war.

Bob Geiger has the full schedule. Let us know if there are any hearings you think would be particularly clip-worthy for C&L.
