On Law Day a professorial Kenneth Starr ominously -and fatuously -
reminds us that nobody is above the law. Remember Nixon ?
I wonder what side of the fence Starr was on when " Watergate " was
a burning issue. The comparison between Clinton and Nixon can only be
taken seriously by very professorial cretins, operating with barren
legal abstractions. In any democracy in the final analysis- democracy
itself must be ABOVE THE LAW !
Nixon seemed more odious to the American public because his illegal
acts undermined our " democracy ". All legal gibberish we read involving
Clinton's conduct fail to strike a cord with most of us. Why ? Because
quite simply we ask : " Where's the beef ? "
" Whitewater " in contrast to Watergate is an utterly soporific
" scandal ". Where are the aggrieved VICTIMS ? And what is the significance
of a 20 year old petty " crime " for the nation, a " crime " that would
bore the most assiduous Certified Public Accountant ?
Behind Mr. Starr's professorial drivel is political animosity. He too
is not above the law. But he is,it seems,above COMMON SENSE !
