Update 4/28 9:14 pm: Senator Lugar has submitted pre-hearing questions to Legal Adviser-Designate Harold Hongju Koh. The questions and the response are here (pdf). The link in cspan seems to have disappeared right now. But you can watch the hearing at SFRC here (video starts at 9:40). When you get to the specific hearing page, click on "NOMINATION" (green big letters), that's the link to the Senate live stream for this hearing. It's a wacky set-up, but I could not locate a direct link to the video at this time. Somebody please tell SFRC that posting their videos this way really sucks!?!!
