<< A better reason to drop the trial would be that the nation has many problems that need attention from Congress ... >>

The Republicans are saying that the hundreds of hours they they are spending in their political attack on Clinton has not effected the amount of the work that they do in Congress for the people.

That leads me to believe that they are either lying about this, or that they usually don't do too much work.

First, I would say that determining whether we allow a perjurer and obstructor of justice to remain in office is at least as important as anything else on our collective plate. Second, what is your employment? I'm a lawyer and not only myself but many other legal professionals believe that Starr's record is exemplary and that his work ethic is an admirable one. As you are a layman, I can understand your feeling, but that does not validate your view. Finally, beating that dead horse again, Henry Hyde is not sitting in judgment of adultery. Hyde is pressing his case for perjury and obstruction of justice. The perjury is evident. The obstruction is more circumstantial but a good case nevertheless. JLA
