...Jones team, the May 27 trial would come none too soon. Last week the right-leaning groups backing Jones looked more like bratty children than cogs in a well-oiled conspiracy machine. John Whitehead, who runs the Rutherford Institute, the legal foundation bankrolling her lawsuit, complains that another group, the Paula Jones Legal Fund, is siphoning away fund-raising cash. "The fund implies it's going to pay the lawyers," he says, but the money actually pays for Jones' expenses, including her makeover and clothes (more than $4,000), phone bills and savings for the $800,000 lien held...
Meanwhile, some conservatives are attacking Rutherford for what they say is his move toward the left. Two Christian radio networks have announced plans to drop Rutherford's daily radio spots; other groups have complained about Whitehead's sympathetic views toward gays.

The Rutherford Institute, which pays Jones' legal bills, once defended the right of football players at Jerry Falwell's Liberty University to pray in the end zone following touchdowns. Finally, and perhaps most damningly, the institute's director, John Whitehead, displays in his office a portrait of Bob Dylan. That's right, Bob Dylan, author of this lyric (from It's Alright Ma, I'm Only Bleeding): "But even the President of the United States/Sometimes must have to stand naked...
