This article provides the text of a speech given in May 2001 by Senator Carl Levin, of Michigan, regarding the Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty of 1972, and threats posed to it by the National Missile Defense system's deployment and/or testing. Issues addressed include US national security and threats to it specifically from North Korean ballisitc missiles, the risks of unilateral withdrawal from the treaty with Russia which could then develop and deploy countermeasures, lack of a treaty could encourage China to increase its nuclear arsenal; finally, Levin concludes that the expensive and questionable system would do more to damage security through unilateral rejection of the treaty than to provide any true defense, and should only be deployed under specific circumstances that includes the approval of Russia and China, and answers to the effectiveness of the system.

49. 'Wading knee deep in words, words, words': senatorial rhetoric in the Johnson and Clinton impeachment trials

Author

Subjects
Impeachments -- Analysis, Legislators -- Speeches, lectures and essays, Rhetoric -- Political aspects, Presidents -- Cases, Government, History, Political science
Abstract

In the only two presidential impeachment trials in American history, 30 senators of the 40th Congress and 88 senators of the 106th Congress provided statements about their respective decisions. We use computer-assisted stylistic analysis and a close reading of the texts to analyze the accounts they offered in these statements. We address three main issues. First, did the senators of the Johnson and Clinton trials, separated by 131 years, explain themselves in more or less the same way or are there basic differences between the two proceedings in what they said and how they said it? Second, can we trace differences in the style, tone, and substance of senators' rhetoric to their positions, pro or con, on impeachment? And third, what do the form and substance of senators' statements tell us about their motives for speaking? This trial has developed, in the most remarkable manner, the insane love of speaking among public men.... [W]e have been wading knee deep in words, words, words ... and are but little more than half across the turbid stream. I verily believe there are fierce impeachers here, who, if the alternative of conviction of the President coupled with their silence, and an unlimited opportunity to talk, coupled with his certain acquittal, were before them would instantly decide to speak. --Representative James A. Garfield (R-OH) describing the plodding pace of Senate proceedings during the impeachment trial of Andrew Johnson (quoted by Benedict 1999, 124).
