Judiciary releases witness list for Kucinich "impeachment" hearing


By John Bresnahan
The House Judiciary Committee has released its witness list for Friday's hearing on Rep. Dennis Kucinich's (D-Ohio) impeachment resolution. One big surprise — a House Republican will testify.

Rep. Walter Jones (R-N.C.), a huge critic of President Bush's policy in Iraq, is scheduled to appear before the Judiciary Committee, according to a witness list just released by the panel.

Former Rep. Bob Barr, the Libertarian Party's presidential candidate, is also scheduled to testify. Barr was a Republican from Georgia during four terms in the House.

Kucinich, as expected, will testify as well.

Here's the full witness list released by the Judiciary Committee for Friday's session:

The Honorable Dennis Kucinich, Representative from Ohio
The Honorable Maurice Hinchey, Representative from New York
The Honorable Walter Jones, Representative from North Carolina
The Honorable Brad Miller, Representative from North Carolina
