I think Mr. Freud would get a chuckle from your first sentence.

OT

Excuse me unless I head wrong. I think the tapes were brought to Starr before he called Clinton in the Paula Jones disposition? Therefore it is highly suspect that Starr listen to the tapes and then proceeded to expertly question Clinton so as to have him either expose himself or lie about exposing himself. <ggg>

The Paula Jones suit was a civil suit unrelated to Starr's criminal investigation. At least before he perjured himself. Starr received permission on January 16 to expand his investigation into the alleged perjury.

Either way Starr couldn't have lost by having those tapes. My point is Starr took advantage of his special position to entrap.

He was in no position to entrap, not being a party to the Jones suit. Even if he were, if merely providing someone with the opportunity to commit a crime was entrapment then you could never question anyone under oath nor arrest someone when they attempt to solicit prostitution from an undercover agent posing as a streetwalker. Entrapment involves actually enticing someone to commit a crime (which, BTW, in my mind does include the solicitation example but the courts say otherwise).
