"Yes, the president should resign. He has lied to the American people, time and time again, and betrayed their trust.

- William Jefferson Clinton, then an Arkansas 12th Congressional District Hopeful in 1974 during the Nixon investigations

"The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it. Ignorance may deride it. But in the end, there it is."
