​I know, but if I was on a jury and determined that the defendant did
​something illegal that wouldn't necessarily be enough for me to vote
guilty, I would vote guilty only if I thought it was immoral too. The judge
repeatedly tells jurors not to do that but I'd do it anyway. The Senate was
acting as a jury and if I was a Senator I'd do what I thought was right.

I agree with you about "Wag the Dog", great movie!
