SANTA BARBARA, Calif. (AP) - Kenneth Starr says he never should have led the investigation that resulted in the impeachment of former President Bill Clinton.

The former independent counsel, now dean of the Pepperdine University law school, says "the most fundamental thing that could have been done differently" was for somebody else to have investigated Clinton's statements under oath denying he had an affair with White House intern Monica Lewinsky.

Starr said his role in a yearslong investigation of Clinton should have focused instead on Clinton's role in the failed Arkansas land deal known as Whitewater.<<<

2. Now he thinks he should have stuck to investigating Whitewater?

That he became dean of Pepperdine was mentioned in the movie, "The Hunting of the President". It was an excellent movie. I wonder how many people saw it.

I was hoping this article would have mentioned "Ken Starr, defendant".

3. Great. If we could only get him to denounce his VRWC puppetmasters...

4. He still doesn't get it

If he thinks anyone should have been appointed to investigate Clinton's private sex life (at taxpayer expense no less), he doesn't have the ethics or vision to be trusted to do his job properly.
