Aside from the personal characterizations on this thread, which I have drifted into and have been guilty of as much as anybody else, do those on this thread, left and right, lurkers included, agree that:

"A vote for a Republican this Tuesday, especially for a Senator, is a basically vote for Clinton's impeachment."

Yes or no?

I think yes.

Marty: Mr. Starr is a thorough and dogged prosecutor. Its not a pleasant nor fundamentally fair process for ANY target. Starr's procedures have been thorough but not unusual. Given the resistance Starr has met from the White House, the lying and denying, stonewalling, disappearing witnesses and documents, etc. his thoroughness is justified in my opinion. Remember this is a President who has opened up a whole new dictionary for the American people. Nothing can be assumed. He will have his chance to answer the charges at the appropriate time and in the appropriate manner. He has already been accorded many privileges that you and I as mere mortals would never have been given such as his videotaped GJ appearance, having his counsel present for GJ testimony, etc. OTOH, Mr Starr has been widely vilified and he is unable to respond or defend himself, which you as a lover of fairness must concede.
I am still interested in hearing which particular practices you feel are unfair as opposed to vigorous prosecution tactics common the GJ proceedings. Thank you. JLA
