25. Feingold did vote for impeachment procedures to commence

against Bill Clinton for the blow job. I didn't agree with it then, and still don't.

WASHINGTON (AllPolitics, Jan. 28) -- Sen. Russell Feingold broke ranks with fellow Democrats Wednesday when he voted with Republicans in the impeachment trial of President Bill Clinton.

Feingold voted against a motion to dismiss the trial and voted in favor of a motion to allow the deposition of three witnesses.

Guess censure will have to do now though, since "impeachment" is considered radical! :shrug:
