Specter asks Dean: Don't you think there has to be some case made of bad faith?

Dean: WHen I read Feingold's resolution and those whereas clauses, there is evidence of bad faith.

Specter: Aren't bad faith easier to define?

Dean: I don't recall bad faith being a prerequisite to censure. Had a censure resolution been issued about Nixon's conduct before it erupted to the degree, it would have been a God send.

Specter: Mr. Fine, you have testified that censure is not different than oversight. I have to disagree with you categorically. When we do oversight and make suggestions, I've never heard in an oversight hearing that someone should be censured. SOmetimes you hear the word shameful.
