I believe you are correct Ken. I have not followed the investigation closely enough to trace every move of the three judge panel, Reno, etc. Starr gets all the press, and I was generalizing a bit to make a point, the point being that some person or entity is going after Clinton for matters unrelated to the original issue of Whitewater, which seems to me to be politically motivated. If you are intimately familiar with the investigation, maybe you could shed some light on that point.

>>... The special prosecutor has no authority to pick and choose which issues s/he examines.>> Ken Starr before obtaining Reno's approval to investigate Monica's case, he already had Tripp tapes, wired Tripp to record Lewinsky's conversation, he and FBI agents talked to Lewinsky for 8 or 10 hours without her lawyer's presence, then armed with these information, he went to RENO to get authorization to investigate the case. A lot of men lied about their adultery, not just Clinton. Paula Jone's suit is obviously a polictically inspired law suit. Ken Starr should not have got into this case in the first place.
