e...I find your posts quite sound usually, but i have to disagree with the following:

>>What's forgotten here is that so far we've
only heard the case for the prosecution, party line votes have made sure of that. <<

It is my distinct impression that BC's spokespeople as well as BC himself have had more airtime to defend their side publicly than Starr, et. al,. have but yet they(BC) won't gve straight answers:

1.Conress sent BC a list of over 80 questions asking for his side of the story(he evaded any yes or no answers).
2.Even the Dems believe and have stated that he lied.
3.The Republicans would not vote to impeach if he just admitted that he lied.
4.If there is no way Starr, et. al. could ever convict him, why not just admit the truth and avoid this costly charade?

enigma:

You won't see any serious defense mounted by Clinton that he did not commit perjury. If he had one he would not have utilized the tactic of attacking Starr and outing the Republican bad boys. Can anybody in Washington keep his zipper up???

I turned toward the view that Clinton was clearly guilty, when it became obvious that his tactic was to try everyone else but himself. You are falling for the oldest sucker tactic in the trial lawyer's manual. If you don't have a credible defense, try someone else. The crazy thing is the American people don't see it.

As for the so called experts that say the perjury case is weak, they are just Clinton apologists. I don't know of any lawyer that I respect that thinks it is would be that difficult a case. There is just too much corroborating evidence that he lied intentionally, and as I stated above, I believe that if he had a real defense, we would have heard it by now.

Live long and prosper,

Little joe

I, William Jefferson Clinton, do solemnly swear -- that I will faithfully execute the office of President of the United States, and will, to the best of my ability, preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States, so help me God. - Jan 20 1997

It would be nice to believe that we bestow an honor upon those whom we elect to lead our nation. But perhaps we flatter ourselves..
