It sure would be nice if you would repeat the portion of my post you are referring to so that others know the context.
Of course, then they might realize how uninformed you are, rather than just accept your statement that I "claimed" something.
I assume you were answering my statement "Why did he (Starr) allow those illegal files to remain in democRAT hands?".
My response to you is where have you been? This has been talked about numerous times.
The person who indicated that the FBI files were still in the Whitehouse towards the end of Clinton's reign is none other than Independent Counsel Ray.
He said it in a live television interview several years ago.
You believe Ray, don't you?
What part of Heck I don't know... Do you? " do you not understand?
GO STARR GO
It may or may not be funny, but it was a campaign promise of the kind which gets pointed out by the media. In any case, we are talking about a more instant disclosure, as I understand it, and it would be up to the poltical opposition or the press (fat chance) to point it out
They are not relevant to his skills. If Starr deliberately throws a case, he could be disbarred. If you think that all of the people involved in the anti CFR case are conspiring to lose it, and are out to defraud their contributors, put on your tinfoil hat, take your meds, and post to me when the voices in your head are a little less noisy.
So being dishonest and possibly being controlled by the democRATS is not relevant? Welcome to the NEW Republican party.
put on your tinfoil hat, take your meds, and post to me when the voices in your head are a little less noisy.
One can't help but notice that you completely avoided the facts I mentioned which indicate that Starr might be bought and paid for by the other side.
I would be happy to debate the Ron Brown facts with you and the curious timing of Monica's "discovery". Let's see how "tin foil" that theory is?
As we saw in Whitewater, the Foster investigation and during impeachment, someone owned by the other side, when they are leading the legal team as Starr was in each case and you want Starr to do in this case, CAN in fact get away with not doing a very good job. Let's talk about Foster ... and Starr's "skills"?
LCS, Possibly, but thank God, I'm NOT a lawyer. Judge Kenneth Starr had a mountain of evidence to impeach a president, but he turned the WHOLE thing to a presidential blowjob and willfully ignored damning evidence in his presentation. Not to mention that he confirmed TWICE that there was no coverup of Vince Foster's suicide at the park, DESPITE the FACT that Foster dodn't have any keys in his pocket at the park with which to drive his car to the park. The keys were nice enough to return while Vince was in the Virginia morge. Kenneth Starr is THE quintessential antidisestablishmentarianist to call when things get tough. His penchant to "err" correctly is unsurpassed. Peace and love, George.
I did not, that is why I suggested you take your meds!
1. You don't recognize a conspiracy to obstruct justice between Bill Clinton, Vernon Jordon, Bill Richardson, the director of Revlon, Monica Lewinsky and others? Ken Starr didn't.
2. You don't think Clinton should have prosected for committing perjurty? Ken Starr didn't.
3. You don't think any heads should have rolled for close to 1000 FBI files finding their way to the White House? Well Ken Starr didn't. A member of Nixon's staff went to prison for obtaining one FBI file.
There was plenty for Ken Starr to file charges against Clinton over. My point is that Mr. Starr turned into a blocking mechanism rather than a facilitator.
I don't want him anywhere near important conservative causes. If you wish to think less of me for that opinion, have at it.
It looks like your meds are starting to work! Please give some to BAC, he seems to need them worse than you do!
2. You don't think Clinton should have prosected for committing perjurty? Ken Starr didn't. FAILURE TO INDICT IS NOT PROOF OF THIS

I think you are a leading conservative activist. On matters such as this, however, I trust the judgement of those involved in putting Mr. Starr in charge more than I do yours. No hard feelings I hope.
Can you or anyone else in this thread tell me just how this is so? Have you read the bill?
Theoretically, Dough-Boy Starr will lose the case only if this is true. If it's not true, he won't win the case.
The media are irrelevant on this, it is a court case. If the SCOTUS was going to let the media make decisions on things like this, Al Gore would be President today!
Look LCS, if I adopted your "On matters such as this, however, I trust the judgement of those involved in putting Mr. Starr in charge more than I do yours." policy, I'd never be able to criticize the right side of the isle. I won't stand by and watch the right side blow it any more that I would the left.
It is our duty to watch and criticize when warranted. With Starr I think there's more than ample room for criticism.
Thanks for the comments.
One FBI file = Prison
One thousand FBI files = Free Pass
It doesn't get any clearer than that.
Sorry, but the Demo Senators NULLIFIED their jury -- did any even LOOK at the evidence?? Meanwhile, the House Managers were 'managing' what, exactly? Answer: prosecution in the Senate. They and Starr did well. The Demo Senators did not.
