Mercy me! Y'all have to pardon Hank if he seems overly concerned about character and the youth of the country. If you will note from his profile, he is only 38. Ponder this for a minute.....that means that for his entire voting life, he has had a choice between Slick Willie and somebody else...for governor or president. Do you realize what that can do to a psyche? Hank, I feel your pain. lee

We clearly were both brought up to believe that deciding the morality of some behavior isn't determined, or affected, by looking in the stock market pages of the paper. Regretabbly, Starr's behavior is reprehensible as well. He's violated several centures of principle, tradition and law that says grand juries and prosecutorial investigations aren't to be released to the public in a way that pre-judges or deliberately injures the target of the investigation. Prosecutors get a lot of power in the common law set-up, and Starr abused his. What Clinton did doesn't pernamently damage the legal system, but the way that Starr is getting away with his illegality does. I don't think there's anyone in the whole mess to admire. On a less controversial note, I've recently been enjoying the finest dish to be found anywhere on this planet. I refer, of course, to the Arkansas tomato. The only variation of opinion possible is whether it should be accompanied by table salt. --George Acton
