Sen Tom Harkin, D-Iowa, asked Chief Justice William H Rehnquist to block the interview.

[ Harkin's letter to Rehnquist said,
''such questioning would violate the
Senate's sole authority under ... the
Constitution to try impeachments''
because Senate trial rules require
witnesses to be interviewed with
both sides present, The Associated
Press reported.

[ Harkin said he was asking
Rehnquist to use his authority as the
presiding officer in the Senate trial to
prevent Ms. Lewinsky from being
interviewed. ]

Dan- Today Henry Hyde burnt the constitution in order to save it.

Dan- Really nice article about Lindsey Graham's home district.

"The regional economy is as good as we can remember in our lifetimes,"
said Burrell Nelson, head of the Economic Development Alliance of
Pickens County.

Unemployment, at 2.8 percent, is far below the national average. Nelson
said that a boom in metal-working, plastics and chemical industries means
that just 1,500 people are without jobs in a county of 104,000. The
region has also been inundated with retirement and vacation development,
as well as new industrial parks and shopping malls.


Used to be they gave a place like that a shipyard or airplane factory.
I wonder how much of our prosperity of the 90's comes from beating
swords into plowshares?

P.S. Saw a neat PBS program on the Empire Builder. Seems you can
go from Milwaukee to Seattle in style. Brauts looked pretty tasty too.

I despise Clinton because he is a spineless coward, unable to accept responsibility for his mistakes or admit them. I despise him because he broke his oath of office and because as an officer of the Court, he should have known better that to perpetrate the various frauds he has perpetrated in the Jones case, in front of the GJ, etc. The man has diminished the office as no other. He is a loser and it is my fondest hope that history will be as vicious with him as it has been to Nixon, another Presidential loser. JLA
