DALE BUMPERS

I belong to the just-wait-a-minute club.

We are here today because the President suffered a terrible moral lapse of marital infidelity—not a breach of the public trust, not a crime against society. It is a sex scandal …. And when you hear people say, “This is not about sex”—it is about sex.

The Constitution means that each one of us counts.

Does it sound outrageous to you that military spending for fiscal year 2000 will be almost $290 billion and all other domestic discretionary spending, such as education, job training, housing, Amtrak, medical research, environment, Head Start and many other worthwhile programs will total $246 billion, the biggest disparity in modern times ?

It’s not enough anymore to say “Thank God for Mississippi.”

There isn't any way to keep drugs out of this country.

If you're on Banking or the Finance Committee, you don't even have to open your mouth. They'll throw money at you over the transom.

When you hear somebody say, 'This is not about sex' - it's about sex.

The charges wrought and the punishment sought are totally out of proportionality.

I've seen senators, whose character and intelligence I know reasonably well, vote a certain way just because staff tells them to.

You can always depend on Congress to overreact.
