...today. David Kendall and William Ginsburg, attorneys for President Clinton and Monica Lewinsky, respectively, have been silenced by their own court filings: Ginsburg is battling to stop Lewinsky from being dragged into court Thursday, while Kendall has filed suit to plug the Lewinsky leaks he claims are coming from Starr's office. For the moment, at least, the two are bedfellows. "Anything that Mr. Kendall files I'll support to stop the leaks," said Ginsburg. "The leaks are disastrous...
...Starr is not short of support on Capitol Hill, however, where there are ominous rumblings of the "I" word. Roll Call, the Washington insider paper, says that Newt Gingrich and other GOP grandees have discussed dipping into a $4.4 million fund to help bankroll impeachment proceedings.

Worse, Ginsburg says...
...Which is exactly what David Kendall is saying. The Clinton lawyer could take Starr to court as early as today, charging that his office is in contempt for springing more leaks than the Titanic. Another one of those leaks opened up Monday as Newsweek revealed that Starr has subpoenaed Ashley Raines -- a White House staffer to whom, it is believed, Lewinsky played messages left by Clinton on her answering machine. Ginsburg, meanwhile, says he will also take Starr to court -- this time to guarantee immunity for Lewinsky. The only sure winner in all this? Washington attorneys...
