~~~~~OT~~~~~ Starr report. Your too right. The news is usually 80% negative. I've noticed the first half of the news is negative and 1 or 2 stories at the end are positive. Makes me sick, the news should be balanced, at least 50% positive and 50% negative. Who writes these stories? MW

------------OT-------------- Pat, Sometimes it is hard to tell the good guys from the bad guys. I personally do not think that we should have special prosecutors investigating government officials sex lives. Additionally, Starr leaked information over the last year for his own political reasons. Parts of his operations look like a presidential sting. If we are going to investigate government officials it should be done quietly and we should wait until the results are in before commenting. Otherwise it upsets the market and the world too much and is unnecessary. Personally, I think Clinton handled this matter incorrectly. He should not have attempted to mislead the public even if he is guilty. He should have either confessed or said nothing and let his lawyers handle the matter. So I am not condoning his behavior. The perjury charge stemming from the Jones case is a stretch at best. It is very difficult to prove legal perjury.The obstruction of justice case is also a stretch. The abuse of power case is the weakest of all. Clinton has a right to defend himself and this does not constitute abuse of power. It appears to me that Starr is far more guilty of abuse of power than Clinton. But neither one of them have "clean hands". It is only a matter of time until the raw data in those 38 boxes begin to leak out to the public through the news media. When Starr could not get anything on the president or his wife for Whitewater, Travelgate, or other issues, he latched onto the Paula Jones case and set up a sting operation. 4 years and 50 million dollars later he finally has a "crisis of the regime". Meanwhile, I am looking for a good buying opportunity as the more salacious information begins to leak out as it certainly will.
