Former U.S. Senator Dale Bumpers (D-AK) speaks before the Senate opposing the impeachment of U.S. President Bill Clinton
Dale Bumpers (D-AK), former Arkansas Governor and recently resigned Senator, speaks before the Senate presenting his case against the impeachment of President Bill Clinton. Bumpers evokes the weight of history and the Constitution, whose framers he says feared legislative control over the executive branch. Bumpers also asserts that this 5-year "vendetta" has cost taxpayers $50 million to spite a President who never committed a political crime against the United States. Bumpers emphasizes that those who vote to impeach will have a lifetime to regret it.
