What evidence do you have that Linda Tripp is insane? Bennett should have kept his fat yap shut and settled the PJ case. Arrogance, not insanity is what's done Bubba in. Discovery is broad to encourage the seeking of the truth. Discovery is limited to those matters reasonably calculated to lead to relevant evidence. You can't simply ask a President or any other litigant anything. PJ's lawyers were able to inquire into Bubba's sex life because they were trying to show an alleged pattern of Clinton's abuse of subordinates. Accordingly, "sex" is fair game under that theory. As for Klayman, he is proceeding uder a number of Federal Statutes (such as FOIA) and other doctrines (shareholder derivative suit in the Allstate matter) which allow for private enforcement. Nothing nefarious. As for the Republican hopefuls you smeared in your closing, how many of them lied under oath and admitted it? JLA

so the survival of a presidency should depend on whether or not an insane woman like Linda Tripp decided on her whim to wire up conversations "insane"? "on her whim"? Let's see here. Sometime prior to the wiring she was witness to Kathleen Willey emerging from the oval office with her blouse askew, her hair messed up, and distressed. She was subpoenaed by a Grand Jury to testify about the incident, and did so. Shortly thereafter she was publicly portrayed as a liar by one of the chief shills for the POTUS, Bob Bennet, BC's own personal attorney. Later some flabby little tart starts shooting off her mouth, uninvited, about an affair with the President, then asks Tripp to lie about it. What sane person wouldn't understand the possibility that another subpoena might not be in the offing? What honorable person would take a chance on committing perjury regarding the second incident about which she had personal knowledge? What intelligent person would not want proof positive that potential, even probable, further response to another subpoena wasn't substantiated? "Insane"? "On her whim"? What sort of filthy scum would start this vicious campaign against Linda Tripp, and what sort of moral cripples would buy into it?
