He charged that Starr "intentionally or unintentionally...has joined forces with Paula Jones. The virtually unregulated processes of civil discovery have become a vehicle for parties allied in an attempt to destroy the President...
...dresses. I remember a conversation once with her near tears because [then White House deputy chief of staff] Evelyn Lieberman had sent her home that day because of her clothing."

...years since the discovery of DNA, science has been laboring relentlessly to make Krauthammer's fears an inevitable possibility. To sound a frantic alarm at this late date smacks of Chicken Little. Let's get on with it. Let's figure out how to do cloning rationally and cautiously. In a hundred years, people, or at least our cloned descendants, will wonder what all the fuss was about.
