John Re:>, his behavoir was far from appropriate...but tell me how it adversely affected his work as president?<

He blatantly lied under oath many times. Nobody can trust a person who repeatedly lies under oath. The person leading the free world needs to be trustworthy.

>> This shmuck Starr spends 4 years and 30 + million on an
investigation (initially Whitewater) and ends up with the Prez lying about sex w/
Lewinsky!? Granted, his behavoir was far from appropriate...but tell me how it
adversely affected his work as president? Taken in the context of this whole drawn
out investigation, it seems to me he only hit paydirt at the end.<<

What has been found about Clinton is not paydirt.

-US is not an isolated country, and this incidence will not bee looked upon as a minor incidence by rest of the world; let him try to put a world alliance together against a tyrant like Saddam like Bush did and it would not surprise me to see that many former allies may back out.

-history of civilization shows that many a leaders have duped their electorates/kingdoms because of their vices; womanizing being somewhere high on the list. Yes, he may be able to survive, but how well, if at all is the question and during his survival the country may take several setbacks in various areas from lack of trust in leadership, if that would be acceptable to the citizens.

john--

it has nothing to do with impeachment...which i dont think is going to happen. it has to do with public disgust.

sure, we read it...and we laugh. in a few hours its going to sink in that this is a really fucked up thing. yes, millions of men cheat...but dont expect them to have any sympathy for him...they dont want to admit wrongdoing, and they will turn on him like a bad mexican meal.

just watch and see.

John

The Federal Grand Jury under the OIC is still in session. This
report to Congress is of those impeachable offence findings with
respect to this incident.

Perjury, witness tampering and obstruction of justice are not
minor offenses; each is a felony.

You may expect to have further actions taken by this Grand Jury,
including the very real possibility of criminal indictments being
issued to White House Staff and others with respect to their conduct
in this incident and others.

...... There's more to come........

Regards, Dipsey

I have to disagree. It was Clinton,s lying that made the investigation so expensive. Also if wasn,t for the relentless investigation of the Washington Post, we would never have known what A LYING, VINDICTIVE, PARANOID, CRIMINAL Nixon was. Clinton deserves everything he gets. Good job starr.

*OT*, John S., Thanks for sharing your thoughts...

It's important to evaluate an array of opinions to better predict the outcome of market related issues.

On that note: Practically speaking, the case begins as a sexual harassment matter -- a condition which has become increasingly visible in our culture. Perhaps, the concern is endemic to the US and others don't care; but, then again that's the essence of a society, corporation, government, etc. At another time, sexual harassment may be a non-issue; today it represents [is represented as] a pervasive and problematic issue.

That Clinton attempts to circumvent the courts isn't good. What's perplexing is the exploitation (for convenience) of everything, including "his God." That some relationship with "god" has become front-stage is tragic irony: solemn oath stretches beyond legality into the realm of "so help me God." Whether our spiritual beliefs align is another matter... Clinton has presented something as supreme, yet insignificant.

If we are to acknowledge 'politics' as corrupt (relegating ourselves to Animal Farm), then I'm afraid the Starr/tax dollar complain becomes somewhat hollow. We're left to question what isn't a waste of taxpayer dollars.

At some point, maybe we'll look beyond the carnal [or, is it carnival?] aspects of this event... and decide what the heck we really want.

JMO, after a wild week in the market. ;)

I do have to admit being disappointed with the Starr report.

I wish the report had dealt with the other areas that Starr had investigated also.

That said, I must point out that there have been thirteen people sent to prison and the Governor of AK resignation as a result of those four years ..
