bp: I think in light of the Lewinsky revelations, they (the press) owe Paula Jones an apology. In spite of what you say, (and I'm not going to go over this ground again, it's been thoroughly documented) the Jones case went through every single hurdle to present evidence of sexual harassment and the case was only dismissed because according to Judge Wright, there was insufficient evidence to prove "damages" even if the behavior took place (as described by Jones about the President). I think you've turned the Judge's ruling upside down. As I remember it, she ruled that the plaintiff had not sufficiently documented her charge of sexual harassment to proceed further, hence summary judgement. She went on to buttress her ruling by stating that even if the allegations of the plaintiff were true they did not constitute harassment based upon her interpretation of the law and prevailing precedent in the circuit. Therefore, she ruled as both a matter of fact and of law that Ms. Jones did not have a case. ww
