Kenneth Starr’s Testimony
- Share via
* Kenneth Starr’s withholding of his exoneration of the president in the FBI files and White House travel office matters (Nov. 20) is significant evidence of his bias, and is grounds for Atty. Gen. Janet Reno to remove him for cause--now. His explanation that the information, available “months ago,” was not relevant to the House Judiciary Committee at the time of his referral doesn’t pass the sniff test. His decision to include it in his own prepared testimony contradicts his assertion.
This alone is sufficient grounds, which is fortunate since it saves us the trouble of sitting through the litigation of the issue of illegal leaks by Starr and his staff to its inevitable conclusion. Starr has crossed the line. Period. Let’s end this farce now.

After watching the hearings, several things are obvious: Bill Clinton should resign in favor of Alan Greenspan if the economy is the major concern of the voters.
Maxine Waters, Bill Press and some of your readers should at least read the Constitution and pretend that they understand that this nation was conceived based on the belief that it should be governed by the rule of law.
If the citizenry truly wants to move forward, then there should be a Starr for president movement.

In his testimony last Thursday, Starr stated that at no time had he or any member of his staff “relished” their work or the prospect of investigating the president. Now that Starr has lied under oath, can we just call the whole thing off?
