Rep. Dean on Impeachment: ‘This Should Not Be Filled with Stunts or Circuses’

EXCERPT:

DEAN: "I certainly hope not. And that's what was sort of grounding about this resolution. It shows the seriousness with which our party, our caucus takes where we are headed. Speaker Pelosi has said so many times we’re in a solemn place. Nobody wanted to be here. This is a very difficult time for our Congress and an even more difficult time for our country. But when you have a president who behaves as though the law does not apply to him, and when you have a president who abandons his oath of office, when you have a president who would rather compromise our elections than actually work diplomatically with democratic partners around the world, putting them at risk, when you have a president who attempts to shakedown a foreign president for dirt on a political opponent for his own personal and political gain, we have no choice but to take this very, very seriously. I hope my Republican counterparts on all these committees of oversight take it that solemnly, that seriously. This should not be filled with stunts or circuses."
