Starr has been careful not to ask for everything. He has not pressed the Secret Service for papers for fear of exposing the agency's methods. And he has restricted his questioning to between eight and 12 "uniformed division" officers, agents in white, black and gold uniforms who guard the White House proper but not the President himself. That distinction may undercut Merletti's "protective privilege" argument because uniformed officers don't stick as close to the President as the body men in the "protective detail," and therefore may not require the same legal privileges.

And it lasts eight years at most, after which you'll have plenty of time for golf and dating.
