Another day, another Clinton document dump on the Internet. This time, it's the dregs from the Paula Jones case. The not-so-surprising news is that the good parts have already leaked -- which is why Judge Susan Webber Wright said she was releasing the papers in the first place. Still, for aficionados, there are a few new morsels. The largest: President Clinton testified he had not had sex with any woman who was an employee of the federal government or the state of Arkansas since 1986, the time frame specified by the judge. Conspicuous by its absence: the Clinton...
...There'll be no recess for the embattled President, however. Another massive data dump is coming Clinton's way on the Internet, this time from Arkansas judge Susan Webber Wright, who announced that dozens of previously sealed documents in the Paula Jones case will arrive at a computer screen near you on October 19.

Malcolm collected everything from Faberge eggs to toy soldiers...
...sound like an extremely expensive way to close the proverbial barn door. But the truth is, not even Clinton knows how many wild horses are left inside. Lewinsky changed everything; Judge Susan Webber Wright is said to be considering holding Clinton in contempt of court, and Jones' newly energized appeal was set to begin next month in Minnesota. And then there's Congress. If the President can settle before the vote on whether to open impeachment hearings, scheduled for October 5 or 6, he may well have done an end run around his conservative enemies on the Judiciary Committee.
