...slipped quickly in and out of the minority and thus fraudulently did my show for months, barely able to concentrate on whether Tony Blankley and John Dean really would explain the latest White House strategy after the next commercial. Sorry to say, but the Clintons, Lewinskys, Starrs, Goldbergs et al. left no indelible mark on my psyche. I'm a sportscaster again and damned happy living out there in Los Angeles...
WASHINGTON: The battle lines of impeachment have been redrawn, and Monica Lewinsky is free at last. At 3:30 p.m. (ET), the Senate voted 70-30 against subpoenaing the ex-intern for live testimony on the Senate floor. The result was predictable but instructive: Moderate Republicans are through toeing the party line. The impeachment hawks are now on the record.

Then comes the firefight: competing resolutions on whether to subpoena witnesses, followed by the up-and-down votes that will determine...
...Bluford Putnam, president of CDC Investment Management Corp., the U.S. subsidiary of a giant French-based money-management concern, Caisse des Depots et Consignations, strongly disagrees. His scenario: the countries of "Euroland," as the 11-nation currency bloc is being called, will focus more than ever on pumping up their domestic economies, which are suffering from slow growth and high unemployment. Though the new European Central Bank will officially be independent of any national government, political leaders of the 11 countries will be pressing the bank to lower interest rates and keep them down, in coordination with the U.S. Federal...
