<<Please. He has a legal responsibility to explore each lead to whatever the conclusion>>

Yes he does - but he has a series of choices along the way, one of which is to resign, another of which is to decide that the sex/lying issue is not impeachable, etc. After making the decisions he did, Starr bears the responsibility for taking the path he did. I would hope that he feels he did the right thing, but that in no way lessens the responsibility for making his decisions. Again, see my Truman example - Truman felt he did the right thing dropping the bombs, but he still bears responsibility for the deaths caused by the bombs. He felt (I think) that he saved even more lives, but he is still responsible for the deaths.
