Frank, this is what we know with a reasonable amount of certainty..

1. The President arranged for Vernon Jordan to help Monica Lewinsky find a job. First she was offered a job with the U.N. After John Podesta personally took her to see Bill Richardson to offer her a job. She declined the offer. Then Vernon Jordan arranged a job for her at Revlon. Vernon Jordan also drove her to the deposition in the sexual harassment case. Jordan personally drove her to three different places.

2. She was given some gifts by the President. By most accounts, unusual gifts for the average intern.

3. She went to the White House and had a meeting with the President 3 days before she was to give her deposition in the sexual harassment law suit.

4. She visited the White House 37 times in a 20 month period after she left the White House and was working at the Pentagon. This is more visits than the Secretary of Defense had over the same period of time. We know these visits were not for official business.

5. She was given unusual access to come and go from the White House. Especially since she no longer worked there.

6. There is some 20 hours of tape with a friend where Monica Lewinsky admitted to having an affair, where she was told to lie under oath at the deposition. She expressed fear about that lying.

7. The President has admitted to an affair with Jennifer Flowers yet say's he never lied in the past. This is rediculous. He lied at a key moment during his first election on national T.V. to sixty minutes.

8. A talking points memorandum was given to Linda Tripp by Monica Lewinsky encouraging her to lie under oath.

8. Now the secretary's story....

9. The President has refused to answer questions regarding his relationship with Monica Lewinsky.

Now, given the above as being reasonably true at this point, to suggest this is some witch hunt is rediculous. There is fairly strong circumstantial evidence that an obstruction of Justice could have taken place.

Of course he's innocent until proven guilty. That's what a special prosecutor and a grand jury are for.

Or do you think we should just ignore the potential abuses of power which may have taken place??
