As has been pointed out in numerous op-eds. I always like the pinpoint cites I get from you guys. Bill Vaughn's got his "objective studies", when he's not judging public opinion via tasteless SNL skits and Leno's ratings, and you got your unspecified op-eds. Perhaps this is one of the op-eds you refer to?

Marcus did make his views known publicly last month when he wrote an impassioned commentary in The Washington Times urging the impeachment of Clinton. "The cancer is deadly," Marcus wrote. "It, and its cause, must be removed." He identified himself in the newspaper simply as "a lawyer in Philadelphia." (http://www.nytimes.com/library/politics/012499jones-lawyers.html)

This being the same Marcus who was in the middle of the Jones case right from the start:

The Davis and Cammarata billing records show that from their earliest involvement in the case, they were consulting with Marcus and Porter. Conway also helped draft briefs, Cammarata said.

"Marcus was involved," Cammarata said, "but he insisted that he not be identified. But that was fine with me. We were just two guys involved in the middle of a world war. We welcomed his help."

No one was more important to the Jones case than Marcus. Besides helping to write several important briefs, Marcus spoke numerous times at the most critical moments in the case with Cammarata and Davis, offering legal advice that Cammarata said was "vital."


I'm sure numerous op-eds in the Washington Times have explained how the tactics used against drug kingpins and mafia dons are totally appropriate in the pursuit of an elected President tangled up in a politically motivated civil suit set up by the likes of Marcus. When you're fighting against Clinton the Antichrist, anything goes. As Letterman might say, some are amused, others disgusted.

re:<<Prosecutors constantly offer incentives to witnesses who would not be forthcoming, including the threat of punishment.>>

Hmmm...would that be the rule of law, the rule of men, or the rule of lawmen?
