Yes. I believe Monica must have fingered the author of the "talking points" at a minimum. That would help Starr prove the WH conspiracy to obstruct justice in all his many scandals.

Yes, and that would also lend credence to the idea that Starr has the goods on the talking points. Having transactional immunity won't protect her against perjury, but she certainly has every incentive now to make full disclosure. bp

I haven't posted here in ages but today's developments compel me to say something. I think we all knew this was coming from the day Monica fired Ginsburg and hired her new lawyers. She finally has someone representing her who is looking out for her best interests, for the short and long term. Clinton's days in the White House are numbered. What is simply unbelievable to me is that, like Nixon, he will go down because he stupidly tried to cover up something that just was not a big deal in the first place. So what if he boinked Monica. While it certainly is not honorable behavior, if he had owned up to it he may have taken a hit in the polls for awhile and his legacy may have suffered somewhat, but at least he would have been able to finish his term. Now, he has at least committed perjury (you can argue all you want about the deposition in the Jones case not being admitted into evidence and therefore no perjury, technically committed) and Monica's testimony will go a long way towards letting Starr and the rest of us know whether the illegalities went even further. For the sake of his reputation, he has ruined the lives of many people who believed in him and were committed to his agenda. Their reward for loyalty has been a flood of subpoenas and a demand to spin matters to an infinite degree to remove the focus from the basic issue which started this thing in the first place. I can't blame McCurry or anyone else other than the President for the things that have been said, the doublespeak, the delaying tactics or anything else. Now, Clinton needs to be a big boy and do the right thing, which is to step down and spare the nation the embarrassment of having the President's sexual proclivities and strong-arm tactics exposed for the whole world to see in Congressional hearings and impeachment proceedings. I'm sick of the whole thing.
