Kenneth Starr Orders LBJ Exhumed For Investigation Of Possible Sexual Impropriety WASHINGTON, DC--Vowing to "restore morality, integrity and accountability to the office of the presidency," Special Prosecutor Kenneth Starr ordered the exhumation of President Lyndon Johnson's corpse Tuesday in connection with possible sexual misconduct during his tenure in the White House. "Since the late President Johnson has not been forthcoming with the truth about his relationship with Miss Glass, I am left with no choice but to subpoena him posthumously," said Starr, who has accused Johnson of conducting a longtime affair with Alice Glass, the girlfriend of Texas newspaper publisher Charles Marsh. Johnson may be called to testify as early as next Monday, when exhumed president Warren Harding is expected to complete his deposition regarding an alleged 15-year extramarital affair with Carrie Phillips and subsequent attempts to bribe the Phillips family to keep the relationship a secret. Among other presidents whose corpses Starr has ordered dug up for questioning regarding sexual misconduct: John Kennedy, Franklin Roosevelt, Dwight Eisenhower, Grover Cleveland, Martin Van Buren, Andrew Jackson and Thomas Jefferson.

<< "This hypocrite broke up my family">> First of all, it's not about sex, etc. etc. etc. Second, the two scenarios have absolutely nothing in common except they both involve adultery. Hyde didn't have sex with an employee, he didn't get his lover government jobs, didn't lie to a Grand Jury, etc. Although I don't approve of Hyde's past affair, I don't see the connection. He is not sitting in judgement of Clinton's infidelity, but of his potential abuse of power, his perjury, and his ability to continue as President.
