But Art the Star investigation would have been maybe a few months and few hundred grand had Clinton not used all the power of the Federal government to stall!! Why didn't he just fess up seven months ago? And Clinton signed the Independent Counsel law ...don't forget that. Yes but you are forgetting something here. Unlike Watergate, the truths in this personal matter would have affected Hillary, Monica and Chelsea in a personally damaging matter. Of course with the benefit of hindsight we can all see that Clinton should have fessed up to the whole incident and now everyone would be better off - scandal actually draws MORE attention to this embarrassing incident. But he didnt know that then. So he probably weighed the evidence that he thought Starr had at the time, and came to the incorrect conclusion that he could deny it and stall for the rest of his term. My guess is Hillary supported that decision. Had this been about a different matter where others were not involved the decision of how to present it to the courts/TV would have been different. Lets put it this way, if I were Monica, I would have wanted him to lie. Michelle
