Both the first and the second rebuttal of the Starr report are astonishingly week in legal terms (I doubt that Kendall et al. would be able to pass a bar exam with it). Of course, they know that they could not win their case in a court of law; they are just trying to win in the court of public opinion. They might well do that, though I think that it is an extremely high-risk strategy. A bit of honesty at an earlier stage or at the August testimony, their last opportunity to come clean with at least a shred of decency, would have been much better. The negative reaction to Clinton's August "confession speech" showed that the American public is not quite as naive and gullible as Kendall et al. believe.

Regards,

Phil

PR job, and a lousy one at that. He should've hired some experienced and knowledgeable lawyers, who, between other things, could've told him what's right and what's wrong, and that giving false testimony under oath is a high crime.

Should've taken the 5th.

Flick,

That is all posturing for the legal battle. The Prez is going to win the battle and lose the war.

Besides, would YOU take a lollypop from THAT man??? The idea of it!

Noted is the fact that the White House paper does not deny
any of the content of the OIC report as being other than
factually correct.

Their position seems to be that a) it contains too many personal
intimate revelations and b) the transgressions of the President
are insufficient to impeach.

Bear in mind, the OIC only created the report; the House, by a
vote of 363 to 63 voted to make it public. This is hardly a
right wing conspiracy. Attacking the OIC further is liable to
backfire on them; essentially they are attacking the House.

The truth is that the report does appear to offer credible
and substantial evidence that multiple felonies were committed.

Impeachment proceedings are called for in order to put the
matter to rest.
