Let me ignore where you are coming from and just say that those things
that may cause one to hate exist, but to fight hate with hate is a
lose lose to all except that which is evil, as then it wins.

As for Rubin, he might be a person with extreme intellect abilities
that excels in many areas, but is dump & ignorant & stupid in others.

To meet a man or woman like him and expect a high level of correctness
in all topics is a mistake. I know of a person that had a converstaion
with Albert Einstein about life in general, and Einstein spoke about
certain areas under the impression that he used his high IQ in a correct
and proper manner, but to this observer who was an expert in this field,
Einstein was dumb and stupid, and not knowing it.

Judge Rejects White House Privilege Claim

Associated Press
Tuesday, January 25, 2000; Page A02

Brushing aside objections by President Clinton, a judge gave the go-ahead yesterday for more questioning in a lawsuit by former government employees whose FBI background files were collected by the White House.

U.S. District Judge Royce C. Lamberth said Judicial Watch, the conservative group that filed the suit, should be permitted to question former FBI official Larry Potts about his work for a private investigative firm that also had been retained by Clinton's legal team in the Monica S. Lewinsky scandal.

Clinton objected to questions about contacts Potts had with the FBI since he began working for the firm, Investigative Group International, because it would force Potts to reveal privileged communications he had with the president's lawyers.

"Clinton's and Potts's argument misses the point," Lamberth wrote. "Not all discussions among a group of people . . . may be entitled to claim the privilege."(cont)
