Starr -

$40,000,000 Gone and No Evidence -

What a Waste!



Just what does the public think concerning Kenneth Starr? In answering this, perhaps we should determine what his job is.

Should he have become involved in issues such as sexual harassment (Jones) and alleged sexual indiscretions (Lewinski)? He was appointed as Independent Counsel to investigate the Whitewater affair.

Needless to state, after $32,000,000, he could not produce one piece of evidence which pointed to any illegal involvement by President and Mrs. Clinton.

Failing in that endeavor, he then jumped on claims made by Jones. However, Jones's case is in no way related to Whitewater. But, this was expained as by this logic: If Mr. Clinton had lied about anything concerning Jones, then he could have lied about things in Whitewater.

First and foremost, a married man or woman lying about such a dispicable act as described by Jones, has nothing to do with any financial dealings. And, don't forget that Starr had failed miserably in finding evidence linking President and Mrs. Clinton to any illegalities.

He has likewise failed in producing anything other than conjecture concerning Jones and her allegations. There is absolutely no proof of her claims.

So, just where the hey did she come from? Perhaps that should be investigated by another Independent Counsel.

At this point, Starr had failed twice to produce evidence against Mr. Clinton. And, up jumps Lewinski. Starr pounces on it like a cat after a mouse as does the media, an institution that loves scandal whether based on the truth or fabrications or the wild dreams of a 'source'.

But, Lewinski denied the allegations under oath, as did Mr. Clinton on national television. In fact, there is not any evidence of improprieties whatsoever. Because a man is alone with a woman does not automatically lead to sexual behaviors. Nor, do gifts, nor a hug in a crowd.

Come to think of it, the only clip or evidence that Mr. Clinton ever had any physical contact with Lewinski is the one which has now been shown dozens of times. And Starr never came up with it. Zealous media personnel did.

Let's assume for a minute (Special Addendum: He did!!) Mr. Clinton did have relations with Lewinski. If he did ask her to lie, does that have anything to do with Whitewater?

Not by any stretch of an intelligent, unbiased mind. Again, it is the norm for a married person to ask that his partner in any illicite affair lie. I think the other people in government who have had affairs will attest to this. Right, Gingrich, and all you other philanderers?

Now, Starr has spent over $40,000,000 and still hasn't provided proof of anything other than the clear, flagrant fact that all three cases have not produced other than suspicions and innuendoes against Mr. Clinton.

But, Starr and the media has revelled just the same in spite of his lack of production other than, what, three convictions concerning Whitewater. But, weren't those convictions millions and millions of taxpayers' dollars ago?

Then, there is this. When the goal has become one of discrediting, does it matter if there is anything other than rumors and unsubstantiated claims? Does it not serve almost as well as a conviction?

I think it is time that Starr be sent home. Why waste another $40,000,000 for him to appease his own failings. Why not spend the money for, e.g., to house, cloth, and feed many homeless families?

As it stands right now, Ladies and Gentlemen, I don't believe the majority would believe any any information as factual even if Starr did come up with something.

And, that includes any persons randomly selected for a jury, should there ever be one.
