Kendall has proved a striking antagonist to Starr. He is a Quaker to Starr's more evangelical brand of Christian; a liberal to Starr's Federalist Society conservative; a man who does his pro bono work for the NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund, while Starr moonlighted as counsel for a conservative Wisconsin foundation's fight for school choice. Their interplay became all the more intriguing last week when the heretofore academic question of whether the President can be subpoenaed became a very, very real one.

...helping hand is hiding a club. If the right could challenge the growing belief that gayness is innate and not a life-style choice, it could galvanize the troops for the fall elections, all the while looking Christian. At this very moment, House conservatives may try to pass a harsh amendment reversing the federal ban on discrimination against gays...
