Starr has long been seeking the testimony of two of the uniformed officers who guard the White House hallways. But last week he startled Washington by issuing his first subpoena to a member of Clinton's plainclothes security detail--Cockell, who until last week was the special agent in charge. Cockell joined the presidential detail almost exactly two years ago.

I feel a little unsafe and a little less free than I did in June. The E.R. scared me, but it was not shocking. In a city, we know to be wary of crime and of other people.
