...lawyers and aides continue the far more essential task of making excuses. And, if there is anything that the American people swallow more easily than apple pie and apologies, it is excuses. We understand--he was lonely, his appetites got the better of him, the lawsuit was politically motivated, Ken Starr is Satan...
Most Republicans are correct when they say that Ken Starr's investigation is not about sex. But they are wrong when they try to assert that it is about perjury, subornation of perjury and obstruction of justice. Since day one, the investigation has been about politics.

Hyde, however, doesn't need any more ruminating time. The chairman decreed over the weekend that hearings are necessary, but has graciously agreed to "hear from everyone...
