President Clinton, if you`re watching now as I suspect you are, I tell you this: I could not and should not cast the vote that brings down your presidency. You have made mistakes and know it far better than I. But you do not deserve and…

The challenge for us, and too much is at stake for us to even consider the possibility of failure, is for us to end this distrust and put this too partisan debate behind us. And for the sake of our place in history rise to the high road…

I mean, you got all this attention on Joe Biden but the attention should be focused on the 50 Republican senators who are saying no. No to a piece of legislation, well, take a giant step to address the problem of climate change and give us…

I do trust, we`ve -- we know what he wanted. He has been negotiating in good faith. My prediction is that they`ll get a bill, something to the president for signature.

You know, I mean you have to stand up and say look, we`re Article I of the constitution. We`re the Congress. And if the president of the United States is constantly lying, you have to break and say he`s lying. And they haven`t done it.

I think it has a lot to offer in turning the agency around.

I also believe that he will be an independent voice who is unafraid to stand up to the Executive, should that become necessary.

Please act on his nomination with alacrity, and allow him to continue his service to our great nation.

He is also committed to working with Congress, and will fight every day to do his duty.

I am confident that in his role as an EEOC Commissioner, he will fight to ensure that the laws against discrimination in our country are fully and faithfully enforced.

Both the Congress and the administration need to follow this up. This is an extraordinary interview, the content is important.

I don't know for certain that there was involvement. I know for certain there's a plenty smoked gun line around the room and this happens to be the latest one.
