Hastings , Senator Specter stated : [T]he impeachment process [] relies in significant measure on decisions of the court and the opinion of judges . [T]he decisions and interpretations of the courts should be highly instructive to us . In our system of Government , it has been the courts that through the years have been called upon to construe , define and apply the provisions of our Constitution . Their decisions reflect our values and our evolving notions of justice . Although we are a branch of Government coequal with the judiciary , and by the Constitution vested with the " sole " power to try impeachments , I believe that the words and reasoning of judges who have struggled with the meaning and application of the Constitution and its provisions ought to be given great heed because that jurisprudence embodies the values of fairness and justice that ought to be the polestar of our own determinations . S . Doc . 101-18 , 101st Cong . , 1st Sess . at 740-41 . As Senator Specter observed , judicial rules have been developed and refined over the years to assure that court proceedings are fair , and that an accused is assured the necessary tools to prepare a proper defense , including proper notice . 035129 00001 jakbert - 11 : 35pm Jan 13 , 1999 EST ( of 35135 ) > 00002 tnal : } 00003 *Therefore , your point , verbose as written , is moot . 035130 00001 hugsy - 11 : 37pm Jan 13 , 1999 EST ( of 35135 ) } 00002 *I can see once again someone is not getting enough attention , so he has decided to ruin the conversational environment for the rest of us with endless pastes . 035131 00001 searingtruth - 11 : 38pm Jan 13 , 1999 EST ( of 35135 ) } 00002 *The Republican party stands bare naked before the world , its pious hypocrisy and disdain for democracy dripping from its tongue > 00003 tna1pada3 1 / 13 / 99 11 : 32pm } 00004 *Ah , the rule of law .

The Democrats on the House Judiciary Committee tried very hard to get the R ' s to be specific about allegedly perjurious statements . Hyde and his GOP comrades bent over backward to be nonspecific , because they couldn ' t construct articles of impeachment that would stand up to legal tests . The process has been , from the beginning , a POLITICAL one . the aim of House Republicans has been to stigmatize Clinton with the Scarlet " I " . They have known from Day 1 that removal is unlikely , yet they have persisted in prolonging the process . I suggest the remedy is political as well--- 2000 can not come soon enough . 035133 00001 hugsy - 11 : 40pm Jan 13 , 1999 EST ( of 35135 ) > 00002 dagwood , } 00003 *could you find my response in the middle of all that crap ? 035134 00001 searingtruth - 11 : 46pm Jan 13 , 1999 EST ( of 35135 ) } 00002 *Thanks for the debate everyone .

Then the " partisan politics " premiss . Be logical , not passionate , please make sure your premisses support that the citizen did not lie under oath , if so , then , and only then , your case will be proved . Lying under oath is a serious crime , many citizens have gone to jail for it . And nobody is indispensible . The U .

The message I get are that the Republican members of congress are either naive , politically motivated , or idiotic . Will those who think that the president will be removed be willing to put there money where their big mouths are . You can get incredible odds in Vegas . REPLY : Don`t mislead , the odd in Vegas have moved tremendously since the 81 questions . Further your premise that he won`t be removed does not confront the evidence , which is is paramount .

The democrats continue to support him as leader of their party , even though he tramples on the rights of citizens , subverts the constitution ruins blue dresses and brings disrepute to the nation and his party . Democrats are a bunch of hypocritical self-servers . } 00005 *Funny how they seem to " forget " that Reagan lied to the American people and Congress and that he illegally sold arms to the Contras against Congress ' wishes . But that ' s no big deal . he didn ' t have sex with an intern . oooohhhhh . and they also don ' t seem to care about George Bush having a 10 year affair , their own nominee for Speaker of the House , Henry Hyde . oh yeah but that was a " youthful indiscretion " . wasn ' t he about . oh say Clinton ' s age ? } 00006 *None of these people are being tried in the Senate . The self-serving democrats didn ' t move to impeach Reagan or Bush , Why ?

" . Ralph Waldo Emerson BODY OF A LETTER TO MY SENATORS . HI , TAYMAR . DAMN BUSY . EVEN TONIGHT : - ( As a constituent , I would appreciate your help . This past weekend , several Senators noted on / during interviews that they will vote not guilty after the trial of the President . Am I correct in the assumption that the Senators , all Senators , took an oath and the oath was that they would act fairly and impartially during the trial of the President ? If so , how , without reviewing the evidence can one be fair and impartial before the evidence is introduced ? I believe that any Senator , from either party , who reveals their choice prior to the trial , has violated his / hers oath of office and should be severely censured as was McCarthy some years ago .

GERHARDT* INTRODUCTION It would be an understatement to say that over the past year we have heard a lot about "Clinton fatigue" and the scandals of the Clin­ ton presidency. So, it is fitting that one important purpose of this Symposium is to explore the ramifications of the so-called Clinton scandals for the person whose inauguration as president the nation will celebrate in January 2001_1 I refer to the scandals of the Clinton presidency as "so-called" because one could suggest, as some political scientists have, that a sig­ nificant portion of the rhetoric about the scandal-ridden Clinton presidency is hyperbole designed primarily for the purpose of tainting the political opposition.2 It is not inconceivable that much of the rhetoric during the 2000 presidential election about the criminality of both Bill Clinton and his Vice President was designed to make the electorate think that there must have been more than a little fire-or perhaps a raging conflagration-of corruption to explain all the smoke allegedly coming from the Clinton administration.

    AMERICAN EXPERIENCE Presents Clinton Newest Entry in the Acclaimed AMERICAN EXPERIENCE Presidents Collection Profiles the 42nd President Part 1 premieres Monday, February 20, 2012 9:00 p.m. - 11:00 p.m. ET on PBS Part 2 premieres Tuesday, February 21, 2012 8:00 p.m. - 10:00 p.m. ET on PBS From draft dodging to the Dayton Accords, from Monica Lewinsky to a balanced budget, the presidency of William Jefferson Clinton veered between sordid scandal and grand achievement. In Clinton, the latest installment in the critically acclaimed and successful collection of presidential biographies, AMERICAN EXPERIENCE explores the fascinating story of an American president who rose from a turbulent childhood in Arkansas to become one of the most successful politicians in modern American history and one of the most complex and conflicted characters ever to stride across the public stage. It recounts a career full of accomplishment and rife with scandal, a marriage that would make history and create controversy, and a presidency that would define the crucial and transformative period between the fall of the Berlin Wall and 9/11. It follows Clinton across his two terms as he confronted some of the key forces that would shape the future, including partisan political warfare and domestic and international terrorism, and struggled, with uneven success, to define the role of American power in a post-Cold War world. Most memorably, it explores how Clinton’s conflicted character made history, even as it enraged his enemies and confounded his friends. From Emmy and Peabody Award-winning director Barak Goodman (My Lai), the four-hour Clinton will premiere in two parts on PBS.

    Farrakhan: in His Own Words

    Farrakhan: In His Own Words For more than 30 years, Louis Farrakhan, leader of the Nation of Islam (NOI), has been a notable extremist figure, railing against Jews, white people and the LGBT community. In recent years, Farrakhan has embarked on a wide-ranging campaign specifically targeting the Jewish community, a campaign that has featured some of the most hateful speeches of his tenure as head of NOI. Farrakhan has alleged that the Jewish people were responsible for the slave trade and that they conspire to control the government, the media and Hollywood, as well as various black individuals and organizations. He frequently denies the legitimacy of Judaism – or Jewish claim to the land of Israel -- arguing that Judaism is nothing more than a “deceptive lie” and a “theological error” promoted by Jews to further their “control” over America’s government and economy. Over the years, Farrakhan’s speeches have attracted a range of politicians and other public figures. He draws thousands of attendees to his speeches, whichwhichwhichwhich givgivgivgiveseseses him himhimhim th thththeeee dubious dubiousdubiousdubious distin distindistindistinctionctionctionction of ofofof bein beinbeinbeingggg quite quitequitequite possib possibpossibpossiblylylyly Am AmAmAmericaericaericaerica’’’s’’s’ss m mmmostostostost popular popularpopularpopular anti-Semite.anti-Semite.anti-Semite.anti-Semite. During a speech at Washington, D.C.’s Watergate Hotel in November 2017, Farrakhan told his audience that the Jews who “owned a lot of plantations” were responsible for undermining black emancipation after the Civil War. He also endorsed the second volume of the anti-Semitic book, “The Secret Relationship Between Blacks and Jews,” which blames Jews for promoting a myth of black racial inferiority and makes conspiratorial accusations about Jewish involvement 1 / 48 in slave trade and the cotton, textiles, and banking industries.

RIDE-ALONGS, PAPARAZZI, AND OTHER MEDIA THREATS TO PRIVACY Robert M. O'Neil * I. INTRODUCTION When the Supreme Court first addressed the status of "ride- alongs"1 in late May of this year, the role of the news media could have been treated in any of several ways. The law enforcement officers, who were sued for invasion of privacy because they invited reporters to accompany them while serving an arrest warrant in a private home, offered several extenuations.2 The presence of journalists, they argued, would provide direct information to the general public about important news events.3 Moreover, reporters who took part in the arrest could, in a sense, keep the police honest, or at least make them more accountable to the citizenry.4 Finally, the defendants candidly claimed that the participation of reporters on such a mission might enhance the image of the law enforcement agency itself.5 Thus, far from justifying civil liability in privacy suits brought by aggrieved suspects, the ride-along practice should warrant commendation.
