Hi Sue

Sorry so far behind on posts.  I will probably have to lurk more than post the next 
few weeks.  It is not that I don't have
much to say (that would never happen--BG), but am swamped--quarterly evaluation 
summary due; I have to submit the department
budget by April 3rd; am rewriting the testbank for Allyn & Bacon, and have a teaching 
overload this quarter.  Got tired, just
writing about it .  But will try to post a little if I can.

Sorry to piggyback on this post to include some other stuff, but I am pressed for time 
today.  So here goes.  Forgive me 

I was so surprised when I saw that there is a "Minnesota Connection" to this case.  
The grandparents live a short distance from
Austin and my collegue that I do research with and teach with was on local tv (don't 
know if it will appear nationally) was
interviewed.  He grew up with older boy's father, worked at the Faribault prison with 
the boy's mother, would not allow his
children to play with the boy when they were neighbors, and was involved with the boy 
when Tom was the police chief in Grand
Meadows.  So he knows a lot of the history.  He said the boy was always a problem and 
the parents could not control him, no
matter what they did.

I am really beginning to wonder about all of Washington.  I wonder how much it cost us 
taxpayers to find out what books Monica
is reading??  Now that is an important issue, I would think.

There is a site on the Web I will try to get the address for Dr. L. on computer 
culture.  It sounds like it is a new site.
They also list a site of professionals you can link with that are discussing computer 
issues and that may be of interest to
her.

I will post right after going through the old e-mail after on polygraph testing in 
response to Terry.  I tried to send an
attached file, but it was too long.  Sorry again Kathy.

People do tend to forgive celebs anything.  Even if they go to jail.

Hillary standing by him certainly didn't hurt at all.

Another thing that has been brought up is the fact that people are
uneasy about getting into his private sexual life.  I think that might
have a lot to do with it too.  I have thought about the fact that if
they can get into his, what is stopping them from getting into any one

I once had a boss (years ago when I was cute, blonde and young) who decided,
after he hired me, that some extra-curricular activity went with the job.  I
just said no -- sort of in the no, thanks mode but a bit more definite than
that.  He grumbled a bit but after a few tries he stopped.  I learned later
that he had told his colleagues that I was the first secretary he ever had who
said no to him, and that he rather liked me for it.  At any rate, he bought
the champagne for my wedding breakfast.

The latest poll taken say that the majority of the men in the country

important.  Another thing that bothered me somewhat is the naive, hesitant little girl 
that was on
60 Minutes (my, my, such cynicism this morning).  This is no 21 year old intern and 
this was someone
who did not want the story public.  If someone had made my story public, I would not 
be this
hesitant little woman--I would be angry that a friend had made a pass and a friend had 
made it
public and drew me into this mess.  But, I am not Willey.

I have a tough time with Bennett sometimes--he is a good example of the good ole' boy 
network and
their ideas about women.  Remember his remark about Jones?  And, sometimes I feel he 
is about to
make another wonderful statement like he did then.

So I am still waiting--but I still think the money could be spent in better places and 
I am
wondering more about the deal where a private citizen cannot bring up ethics charges 
on a
Congressperson, only another Congressperson is allowed to do that.  Hmm.

Hi Jackie:

Now the Pentagon is looking into Linda Tripp's background, saying
something like, she didn't mention that she had been arrested once.  And
they released some of the transcripts today of Clintons, and the women.

To top it off when the press asked Starr today what he thought about the
stories of Tripp having been arrested he said that we should "remember
that everyone has the obligation to remember to presume innocence until
proven differently."  Why wasn't that thought of when Clinton was the
one on the hot seat, not that he still isn't.

Our front paper had a line up today of the women involved in this, and
there were six of them, with a note saying that there were others that
weren't photographed.  

All I can ask at this point, is when did he have time to do his job.  :)

I like the idea of your lawsuit.  I'll be your expert witness, ok?  Just

 Maybe I should sue Clinton maintaining that I am suffering from great emotional stress
because he didn't include me in his overtures to women and my self-esteem as a woman 
has
suffered ever since--how many years is it, now?  Of course, I will have to wait until
after discovery to see a doctor for my condition--didn't need one until now to get over

Afternoon Bill,
   Another sign of this is the interview Sen. Trent Lott did last weekend. He tried to
downplay it after it aired but it showed his concern. I believe he knows that from what
has been leaked and how the public has responded that his party has already lost the
war although they continue to do battle. I think it's time they lick their wounds, bury

So then it comes back to what is Starr going to do now that there are
so  many people (in high places) telling him to bring an end to this.

How is he going to handle all these people if he has to fight it out in
court in order to get Clinton to be subpoenaed, or work out a deal with
him that takes months.  And if Ginsburg is making him work for Monica's
testimony, which could also take months.  

Perhaps the best thing that Starr could do would be to honor the
immunity thing he offered, if he did offer it, and that could force
Clinton to testify.

Or could he take it before the impeachment panel without Clinton ever
testifying at all.

Hi Mac,

I think you're right on with this one.  We're already seeing this with
the guy who wrote the "Paula" article for the Spectator now telling the
truth of what was behind it.  And the widow of the democratic Congressman
winning that seat in the election in California by a much bigger margin
than expected show the beginning signs of exactly what you describe.

Bill

HI Sue,

I think the most important aspect of our government is how the president
interacts with Congress to get things done.  IMO, this is an area of
Clinton's greatest accomplishments.  He managed to defuse a very hostile
GOP controlled Congress (especially after the '96 elections) and created
a strong structure of the executive and legislative branches working
together.  The fiery and misguided rhetoric of Newt Gingrich and his
cronies was stifled and people got down to the tough job of running the
country.  

I agree that nothing much will come of the Starr investigation as it
relates to Bill and Hillary Clinton.

Bill

Hi Bill:

I just read yesterday that the offer from Pepperdine is still open to
Starr any time he wants to take advantage of it.

I also heard this morning that the investigation is coming to a close,
and right now they are trying to get Clinton to testify before the Grand
Jury.  The question did come up as to whether or not they could or would
subpoena him.  

IMO, Clinton has kept his mouth shut about this whole thing (smart thing
to do IMO) until he hears what Monica has to say about the whole deal. 
So I think (and I could be very wrong about this) that Starr will get
Clinton before the grand jury first, get his testimony, and then call
Monica and get hers.  That could prove to be really bad for Clinton, and
I think that is why Starr would do it that way.

Evenin' Sue,
   If you consider the polls, the Republicans, are going to have a real tough
time in the mid-term elections. I believe they may lose control of the House and 
Senate.
Unless Starr came come up with something of substance real soon I think you will see
his supporters asking for closure. This investigation, although very popular with 
Clinton
foes and the media in general, is a political nightmare for the Republican Party. I 
think
you will soon see alot of right wingers jumping off the sinking ship and scramble to
salvage their spot at the public trough.

Now that they are calling the only two people who really know what

But then in the middle of the book he changes it around to say that they

It sounded like something that I would overlook on the book shelf that

more to raise Clinton's overall popularity rating than anything he could
have done. It's the old saying that you can judge someone quite

Hi Bill:

No matter how one feels about Clinton himself, or his wife, if you
really look at the whole picture you can see where this country isn't
all that bad off, IMO.  Now I know that congress has more to do with
that actually than the President, but still.  

I can see really strange things that have happened in the WH that don't
make any sense.  And I wonder about a lot of it.  But so far, as far as
I know anyway, there has been nothing that anyone can actually pin on
Clinton.  And there have been numerous grand jury investigations trying
to do just that.

I honestly feel that most of the American public is just tired of the
whole thing.  They are sick of hearing Monica's name all over the place.
I know I am.  :)

As for Starr, that man is scary.  He seems to be able to do things that
no one else would ever even think of.  I can't imagine any other lawyer
or whatever he is, calling in a persons private lawyer and questioning
them.  And of course there are other things too.

I just wish that we could be privy to what is real information and what
is just dream information.  

I honestly don't think anything will ever come of any of this.  At least
not until Clinton is out of office.  And then who will even care.

Hi Bill

I really think that is why some get so angry when people try to remain
objective and look at the whole picture.  They just can't deal with people
who are not willing to jump on one side or the other automatically.  It
reminds me of what a counselor once said about some men during the women's
movement.  The men in question knew how to deal with aggressive or passive
women--but were at a loss when dealing with an assertive woman.  Much the
same I think--how do you deal with someone that is not reacting emotionally
when you are in a political debate??

Hi Jackie,

One thing is for sure.  You can take any fact and if it's pertinent to a
political issue there will be spin doctors on both sides who will convert
that fact into a fairy tale that supports their side of the issue.

Yeah, McDougal had a lot of baggage, including lying about things during
the course of the investigation.  As with any other witness who lies, the
question becomes what are they lying about and when are they telling the
truth.  Also he had a lot of emotional problems as well as his physical
problems.  And of course, he was going to receive benefits from Starr for
his testimony.

I think the biggest benefit of McDougal involves any documents he may
have turned over to Starr as opposed to what he may have testified to.

I'm amused at how quickly the right wing radical jump up to say the White
House has paid off someone to say something when they are just as quick
to defend anything said against Clinton as an honest person telling the
truth.  It is that type of transparency that tends to sway unbiased
people to fall in on the side of the Clinton camp.

Bill

Missed the tape with Greta.  But isn't McDougal the witness that had a lot of

ironic that his death did occur when it did--just goes to show you why some
people believe so strongly in conspiracy theories and how there is always

the President by the journalist who broke the news about Paula Jones.  Of
course, he was paid off by the w.h. was a familar refrain.

BTW, I just heard a quote yesterday that really pointed out the use of
semantics to mask the reality.  The person said that Clinton had lied when he
told the public that the Republican Congress was trying to cut social
security.  He said that was not true, they were merely proposing a lowering
of the trajectory.  Hmm, what the h## is that I thought.  Well, it just meant
that the cost of living raises would not equal the raise in the cost of
