Former independent counsel Ken Starr writes in his new memoir that he considered -- but ultimately abandoned -- the idea of perjury charges against then-first lady Hillary Clinton after her preposterous deposition with investigators in 1995.
I was upset over Mrs. Clintons performance, and was even considering bringing the matter before the Washington grand jury for possible indictment on perjury, Starr writes in Contempt: A Memoir of the Clinton Investigation, which hits bookshelves Tuesday.
Fox News obtained an advance copy of the book. In it, Starr recounts a Jan. 22, 1995, deposition with both then-President Bill Clinton and the first lady about the suicide of White House adviser Vince Foster and other issues stemming from the Whitewater land deal investigation.
Recalling the presidents answers during that interview, Starr writes, Clinton bobbed and weaved, but was always pleasant as he avoided answering.
The first lady, though, was a different story.
In the space of three hours, she claimed, by our count, over a hundred times that she did not recall or did not remember, Starr writes. This suggested outright mendacity. To be sure, human memory is notoriously fallible, but her strained performance struck us as preposterous.

She basically exercised her right to remain silent. Hard to convict anybody for that unless you want to repeal the fifth amendment.
Had she won, none of these ‘revelations’ would have seen the light of day. It took Trump’s election for Starr to find his one underdeveloped testicle.
When was Willie governor of Alaska?
(Just joshing you.)
I recall George Snuffleupagus threatening Starr during his questioning. Wonder if there's a vid of that, or YouTube has purged it? Thanks E. Pluribus Unum.
=================================
STROLL DOWN MEMORY LANE---The power-hungry, calculated Clintons actually took a poll----they were told Bill could get away with the lewinsky mess. They just needed to lie about it as long as possible before coming clean.
Bill getting lewinskied thrust Hillary into national positioning----something she desperately wanted. Bill apparently had held her back "til it was her turn." Now, overnight, Hillary was at the top and she grabbed every opportunity. The calculating Hillary figured she could help usher Pres Bill out the door, and fulfill her dream.....being a presidential candidate herself.
=======================================
One Clinton lies.....
"I never had sexual relations with that woman...Miss Lewinsky."
And the other Clinton swears to it.
Standing by her man (sniffle).
=============================================
VINTAGE TIME COVER The Clintons leave the WH
arm-in-arm after Bill got lewinskied. Plotting to exploit
Bill's BJ for votes, the Clintons' political apparat never faltered.
That smirk on Hillary's face tells the story.
Hillary later went on network TV all decked out in virginal pearls,
denying everything, blaming Billy's B/J on "an invention of a VRWC."
Bill later admitted to it, was impeached, and disbarred.
He had to pay Paula Jones 850,000 dollars.
He did what he was hired to do. The guy he replaced was closing in on the Foster murder.
He should be ashamed of himself.
Oops! I always get those two states wrong! Sorry! :)
Yeah, for a nanosecond perhaps.
Anything more is laughable.
A long late....now.
I’m not dissin’ Ken Starr. I LOATHE ‘She, The Cold & Joyless,’ and I never miss an opportunity to remind people of her many sins.
Every member of that grand jury would have been slaughtered by her minions so as to serve an example for others.
So?
Why bring it up now?
Shoulda woulda coulda. Didn’t.
Starr’s star faded a long time ago.
FUKS
Essentially starr was a weak creep. He was hired to get to the TRUTH. He CHOSE not to do so. Where are the Patriots at his level? Are you a “chump” to be a Patriot???
The very same creatures who are accusing DJT of a crime that doesn’t even exist.
