He took his seat as a protestor held a pink banner reading "Impeach" behind him and to yells of "Impeach him!" from protestors in the room, who were quickly escorted out. Specter threatened the appointment of a special prosecutor to look into the firings of the eight U.S. attorneys last year and a Senate "trial" to hold in contempt those Administration officials refusing to comply with Senate subpoenas.
