You think you're being clever by talking about Ken Starr. "See, the GOP started this food fight!" The reality is exactly the opposite. The Democrats started this pattern of partisan attacks on the Presidency when they impeached [sic] Nixon for some minor spying while not saying one peep about LBJ's spying. They continued it when they tried to prosecute Reagan for Iran-Contra, also ignoring similar actions by Democrats.

The problem here is that our spying capabilities are so much greater now. Obama unleashed the NSA's terrifying surveillance powers on his opponents. That's much more serious simply because of the greater potency.

Selective prosecutions along partisan lines are worse than no prosecution at all.
