...visit an after-school program, the crowd was jeering reporters, chanting, "Leave Bill alone!" The next day was the First Lady's turn, to usher a new villain onstage. The ground had been carefully laid: Clinton's defenders had been attacking Starr as a vigilante armed "with a loaded subpoena." Clinton lawyer Bob Bennett had filed a motion, which read like a press release, to move up the date of the Paula Jones trial, scheduled to start in May.

We must believe that the comfortable familiarity we see between Clinton and Lewinsky at past fundraisers merely reflects Clinton's boundless...
...Given that President Clinton previously promised to "co-operate fully" with the inquiry, such a move would look disingenuous. And yet, if Starr is planning to subpoena "the entire first floor of the White House," as former Clinton aide George Stephanopoulos suggested before his own grand jury testimony Wednesday, an argument could be made that it was the only way to prevent executive paralysis. Ah, the privileges of power...
