Janice, you and jhild, Surething, and all the others who may think Starr is "out of control" must have really been outraged then, with the way Lawrence Walsh went after Oliver North, since you say, "if someone ever comes after me the way Starr's come after Clinton, I'll do the same. And then some.
During the Iran-Contra investigation, Walsh subpoenaed:
1) Oliver North's wife (there goes husband-wife privilige) 2) Oliver North's attorney (there goes client-attorney privilige) 3) Oliver North's pastor (there goes privilige between a person and their spiritual counselor).
Do you all agree then, that Walsh was "out of control", and going way beyond anything that was relevant? Or perhaps have some of you only recently become concerned with such things as an individual's rights when being investigated by an independent counsel?
Were you also aware that, in his final written report to Congress, Lawrence Walsh referenced specific grand jury testimony 600 times, when such references is forbidden by law? Where was the outrage against such a man as Walsh? Truly it was a dark time for individual rights, and yet the liberals were silent on this matter. Seems like in regards to Starr, liberals have suddenly got religion.
