jbe, Is it just me? Am I the only one who read the Starr Report? In the introduction, Ken Starr clearly states that the investigation into the personal sexual life of the president began when Linda Tripp came to the Office of Independent Council and said that Bill Clinton and Monica Lewinsky were about to lie under oath, suborn perjury, make false state- ments under oath, and were attempting to tamper with a potential witness. Also remember, Ken Starr clearly states in the report that everyone is entitled to a private sexual life. However, if you cross the bar and commit criminal felony acts relating to the sexual activity, you have lost your right to privacy. If the same reasoning that everyone is applying here applied to criminal law in general, it would be illegal to question rapists about their sexual activity. It would be illegal to question child molesters about their sexual activity. Rapists, Child Pornographers, people with HIV that go around infecting other people intentionally, etc have all lost their right to privacy regarding sexual activity because the crossed the bar into illegal behavior. Doesn't anyone else get it? -John
