<<My friend, you see this assessment of yours is merely your assessment. You or no one else has the right to unilaterally apply the results of such assessments to our nation's legal proceedings.>> No, this was Clinton's assessment of the situation; I do merely a postmortem, but not a trivial postmortem. The issues raised are as thorny and as serious as you state. I see them as serious as the Jews under Nazi law--not that this incident carries that weight. The right of the President to execute this assessment comes under Amendment 9&10. Sex is no where else specifically mentioned, and so, therefore excluded. [This would seem less trivial if it were the specified excluded of Amendment 1, but this is the case before us.] As mentioned, it was the Discovery process that was doing the damage; appeals would have allowed the damage to have already occured.
