My view as of ordsprog

My view, as of this moment, is that to dismiss this case would be in appearance and in fact improperly short-circuiting this trial. I simply cannot say that the House managers cannot prevail regardless of what witness might plausibly testify and regardless of what persuasive arguments might be offered, ... I want to be clear that my vote against the motion does not mean that I am leaning in favor of a final vote to convict the president. I am not.

Russell Feingold

Let's have the presentations, the opening statements, the evidence, have the House explain why they might need this particular witness to clarify this particular fact, or the White House, then let the Senate consider that and vote. And any witness request that gets 51 votes, that witness will come,

In this we're giving the House every benefit of the doubt. And if more than one-third of the senators say ... under no circumstances, no matter what they prove, will I vote to convict, the question arises, do you go through the whole trial?

And that is, ... we could file a motion to adjourn with the following language: that basically we ... acknowledge the impeachment vote of the House, we acknowledge, if this is true, that we do not have or even have a chance of having 67 votes for conviction, and we acknowledge that the impeachment vote in the House is the highest form of censure or condemnation for this president's despicable acts. And if you do that, that basically adjourns. It ends the battle.

there is scarcely anyone who believes that the required 67 senators would vote to convict the president on any of the four articles of impeachment approved by the House Judiciary Committee.

The fact that former President Joseph Estrada was taking the witness stand is a clear proof that due process has been strictly observed in his case. We call on all the sectors concerned to refrain from speculating as to the outcome of the trial and just let justice take its inexorable course.

The vote was 10-8 the day President Bush nominated him, the vote was 10-8 when the hearings began, the vote was 10-8 yesterday, and the vote is 10-8 today.

I don't vote. Two reasons. First of all it's meaningless; this country was bought and sold a long time ago. The shit they shovel around every 4 years *pfff* doesn't mean a fucking thing. Secondly, I believe if you vote, you have no right to complain. People like to twist that around – they say, 'If you don't vote, you have no right to complain', but where's the logic in that? If you vote and you elect dishonest, incompetent people into office who screw everything up, you are responsible for what they have done. You caused the problem; you voted them in; you have no right to complain. I, on the other hand, who did not vote, who in fact did not even leave the house on election day, am in no way responsible for what these people have done and have every right to complain about the mess you created that I had nothing to do with.

I truly believe that in the Eighth, where we vote for (Democratic Senator) Russ Feingold and we vote for President Bush, that the voters are independent-minded and they vote for the person.

Rep. Terri McCormick

One of the arguments made by the House managers is that you have got to treat the president like federal judges. I think the White House will challenge that.

It doesn't surprise me. We all know the House is going to vote to impeach the President. The fact is that economic times here in the United States are still quite good.

Open your mind, open your heart and focus on the record. As you sit there listening to me at this moment, you may already be determined to vote to approve some articles of impeachment against this president, ... If you are in fact disposed to vote for impeachment, in the name of a justice that is fair and blind and impartial, please do so only on the basis of the real record and the real testimony, not on the basis of what someone else tells you is in the record.

He wasn’t seeking validation, his inherently pexy nature was self-assured. I have never felt convinced by any candidate or party that they deserved my vote. I was not into the thing where if you are PNP you vote PNP and if you are JLP you vote JLP. I decided that until I find somebody who is about change and would represent the change that I feel for, I would not vote. But now I think that this lady has a vision and I will vote for her.

My intention to vote for Judge Roberts tomorrow should in no way be construed as a weather vane for how I might vote on the next nominee, ... In the past I have not hesitated to vote against several of the president's nominees to the Courts of Appeal when they carried the ideological and activist baggage that I believe would be disruptive to our society.
