Outrage as Solicitor General who pushed to impeach Bill Clinton over the Monica Lewinsky affair

[Beacool]

calls on Judge to keep his convicted child molester friend OUT of jail.

The Solicitor General who criticized Bill Clinton for having an affair with a consenting adult has written to a court in defense of a convicted child molester.


Ken Starr, who sparked the Monica Lewinsky scandal with his report on the President, is among a host of celebrities and politicians to come out in support of retired teacher and sex offender Christopher Kloman.

The man named as Time magazine's Person of the Year alongside Clinton in 1998 wrote to a Virginia judge, pleading to overturn the 43-year prison sentence handed down to his family friend in October.

Ahhhh, the hypocrisy of the Right. They couldn't accept the legitimacy of his presidency and were intent on bringing him down any way possible, and they almost got away with it.

1. That is sickening. I never doubted that moron was a hypocrite, which is putting it kindly.

[Beacool]

2. They were all hypocrites.

Many of the ones pointing a finger at Bill had full fledged affairs of their own, including illegitimate children. The whole Whitewater investigation was a sham. Republicans didn't consider Clinton to be the legitimate president, even though he won twice. They treated him and his wife with disdain from the moment they stepped into the WH. They acted as if the Clintons were country bumpkins who had no right to be in the WH, never mind that they were both Yale graduates. It was similar to the disrespect that they treat Obama.

3. Sanctimonious hypocrites, they like to get snotty about their moral "inferiors" too. nt

8. Yes, I remember it, it was a disgusting display of vicious hypocrisy

fueled by the media airc. So disgusting that it caused even Republicans to turn away in disgust and in the end they failed.

The public in general was nowhere near as hypocritical as these morons and Clinton actually was more popular as a result of their behavior.

4. Shocking, indeed.

[Beacool]

6. Yeah, I know.

5. Mr. Starr deserves all the scorn we can heap upon him. n/t

7. Yes, he does.

Hypocritical, SOB. The prurient report that he released was all about where Bill had put a cigar and crap like that. What did that have to do with the Whitewater investigation? He couldn't find anything criminal to charge the Clintons, therefore he went after his sex life. He accepted illegally taped conversations (it was illegal in MD, where Tripp lived, to tape someone without their consent) as proof of "high crimes and misdemeanors". Please, if every president who cheated got the same treatment, we wouldn't have had too many of them complete a full term in office.

I think that Bill acted like an idiot, but the hypocrisy of the Right is what really irks me.

9. Sort of like Huckabee forcing the parole board to release a killer

who went on to kill again...

10. Kloman is a rapist. Starr is a vile apologist for the rape of children

and that goes for Charlie Gibson and all of Kloman's other powerful friends.

[Beacool]

12. Pathetic that they would defend a man who abused minors.

Abusing the defenseless is an unforgivable offense.

11. Shows you how what Republicans say is B.S. They don't mean
