      Never regret doing your Job, it is the Mark of a Man.

      But if you did it with Malice & Hatred in your Heart, then you do have much to regret.


      Mr. News

      Oh, good God, Mr. Starr. Don't try to rewrite this as some terrible period of history that no one wanted and that everyone wants to forget. There was an entire cabal of Republicans, talk radio hosts, and a budding cable crap news channel all focused and determined on bringing Clinton down. Not to mention a "liberal" media that was giddy with Monica 24/7. All of them have no regrets whatsoever.

      The Impeachment imbroglio was a political witch hunt with Starr playing the role of the Witch-Hunter General.

      Just a few of the low-lights of Starr's supposedly impartial investigation.

      Greta and Starr pretend here that it was all just an unfortunate episode, rather than the politically motivated Constitutional crisis it was. (Greta's network was prominent in bellowing for Clinton's blood.) Starr approves Clinton's current activities so he can pretend no harm, no foul. He is now settling into a "respectable" gig as president of Baylor University and wants to appear as a mild-mannered man of letters, rather than as the unscrupulous political hatchet-man he is.

      As a Texan, I'm shocked that Baylor has hired this man or that he has taken the position. Starr is a member of the uber-conservative church of Christ [small "c," independent church of Christ, not the United Church of Christ . . . ENTIRELY different]. Baylor is a Southern Baptist university. These two denominations [the church of Christ actually doesn't consider itself a denomination, but it is] are like OIL & WATER, particularly from the CofC perspective. My ex-husband and his family are CofC . . . when I started taking my kids to a Southern Baptist church, I got a letter from her telling me how sad she was that I was damning my children to hell.

      This is just a BIZARRE situation.

      I guess it's time for some revisionist history.

      Starr wasn't just "doing his job"... it was personal

      I'm so glad to get him out of California, he is truly an embarassment. He abused his power to derail President Clinton's second term, which was his GOP directive in the first place.

      Ken Gormley's book "The Death of American Virtue; Clinton vs. Starr" [and I admire the author for not using "v." - it's "vs."] has been published and now Mr. Starr must run around like crazy performing his best damage control.

      It's too late, sir. The facts are out there. You never should have been appointed (obvious conflict of interest), you did a very poor job, it's been long enough for us to begin to form a reasoned conclusion about your efforts and the best conclusion is that you were a partisan hack.

      here is the bigger problem, because of this impeachment against clinton, it ensured that there will never be another impeachment ever again. it is because of this, that ensured that any voice calling for bush's impeachment would never be heard. that is the sadness of the whole thing

      This man may be single handedly the person most repsonsible for Al Quiada' buildup in the late 90's - culminating in the attacks on Sept 11.

      We'll never know how distracted Clinton was from keeping the admionistration's eye on those terrorists, dusing that critical period in the years before the attacks.

      All for what? Lying under oath about sex.

      Shame on clinton
      Shame on Starr
      Shame on the Republican led House of Representatives.

      You all have blood on your hands.

      Maybe he regrets taking the President of the United States' eye off his job for 2 years while Al Quaida plotted the 9/11 attacks. Look at the mess Mr. Starr caused by looking into the presidents' sex life. You should be ashamed Mr. Starr. Hey Greta! We didn't come through it alright you dingbat!

        Remember, it wasn't just the President in this case, it was almost his entire senior staff who had to give depositions, testify, and so on. Starr wasted a lot of time, money, and effort on, well, nothing.
