Last Wednesday the Office of the Independent Counsel called me in Los Angeles saying they had changed their minds. They wanted to talk to Monica without us. They wanted to redo the deal. I was angry, to say the least. I can't remember how many times they granted her immunity and changed their minds--at least three times. But this time, it was one too many. So this week we plan to file a motion in court to enforce the agreement. This was a binding agreement that they sent us in writing...
...Monica told the complete truth about everything as she knows it. The whole story may not be the way Starr wants it. It may not be the way Clinton wants it. But it's credible. It's Generation X speaking. I guess it's not what they want. Monica is unbending. She has seen the reports that Starr is supposedly trying to squeeze her. She is not willing to change her story to meet the needs of the prosecutor. She told them the truth, and now she's angry. Last Friday FBI agents visited Monica's brother at his fraternity...
...gauntlet has been thrown by Starr and the President, two icons of our democratic government. Monica is just a pawn in their game. Kenneth Starr has spent $40 million in taxpayer funds for his investigation. The President is complaining about running out of money for legal fees and says he needs a $3 million fund. But Monica Lewinsky and her parents face the total resources of the U.S. Government--never fewer than five attorneys, and four or five FBI agents working against her. The American public should know what it's like to be caught between two agencies of government...

The question I continually have to ask myself is Why is she the target rather than a key witness? What great purpose is served if she is indicted and jailed? What great national catharsis will we feel? And at what price...
...story with no shortage of lurid details, news that Monica Lewinsky may have kept a dress stained from sex with President Clinton was in a class by itself. For fans of the prurient, it offered the tale of a woman so smitten by a sexual encounter that she vowed to keep the most unseemly of souvenirs. For the prosecution-minded, it promised hard DNA evidence. And for those hoping to see the powerful humbled, it introduced a pulse-racing new phrase: presidential semen. "Monica's Love Dress," as the New York Post dubbed it, fast became a staple of water...
