Where was Justin for Bernanke hearing at Budget committee today (2/9/11)?

I watched most of the coverage on CNBC, and looked for it on C-SPAN, but I did not see Amash at Bernanke's testimony before the House Budget committee this morning.

I saw Chairman Paul Ryan, Tom McClintock, Jason Chaffetz etc, but not Amash. Where was he, did I miss it or was he absent?

From his FB:

"Chairman Ben Bernanke is testifying before the Budget Committee. He believes that government "investments" can have a positive effect on the economy if they're "well done." He doesn't acknowledge the opportunity cost of such spending—that it pulls resources from the private sector and state/local gov'ts, and that the federal gov't is generally in the weakest position to determine where best to spend our money."
