Your question on the principles of jurisprudence requires some thought. (I know the Sharks will be waiting for my blood on this one) The very basic rule of jurisprudence states that we are innocent until proven guilty and a mans home is his private property. In Bill Clintons case that was reversed. The White House is the private home of the President and his family, given to him by the American people for his personal use during his term in office, it therefore should be treated no different than any private citizens home, and what they do there is their personal busines. By the media He was guilty from the onset. This is as basic as I can reduce this, I do not wish to load it with legal language. Everything from the first accusation forward violated those bacic legal principles. Whether you and I believe he is or is not guilty has no legal bearing on this basic principle, the right to privacy in his own home is of vital importance. Lisa
