Customer Reviews

I got my 40 million worth!

I laughed from the minute I picked it up to the minute I put it down. Someday I intend to read it.

Great entertainment!

Regardless of one's view of the Clinton situation, the Starr Report is simply entertaining reading. It is not hard to read and there is not too much "legalese." It is better than most novels and it WILL get you involved. Whatever else it may be, the Starr Report is definitely a page-turner!

The official beginning of the end

Incontrovertible proof for liberals in denial; character DOES matter. They may continue to overlook indiscretions such as perjury while chanting the mantra of "relative morality", but what about sexual harassment in the workplace? I seem to remember the NOW catcalls for the public castration of Justice Thomas and Bob Packwood - where is the Ultra Liberal NOW now?I agree with liberals everywhere - this investigation has cost the American taxpayer too much! The President's stonewalling, legal maneuvering and obfuscation have driven up costs of "getting to the truth" well beyond any reasonable level. Mr. and Mrs. Clinton, as individuals, should bear the majority of these costs.

This is now your history, fellow Americans

This is a difficult account to read, but it must be read. The House of Representatives, _your_ leadership has given this back to you. It is a part of history now. You have very few responsibilities as Americans, but your most important duty is this: you must be informed, and make informed choices when it comes to electing the leaders that represent you. You must learn from this so that our country never has to relive it. Only you can prevent it from happening again.With the barrage of polls and propaganda being put forth by your admittedly biased media, this duty becomes more difficult with each passing day. But if you love this country, if you love the Constitution that made this country possible, or even if you haven't thought about it, and only care about your personal freedom, you must be aware that a corrupt leadership will destroy a civilization. Rome, Greece, and Egypt were thought to be invulnerable. America is at its weakest point in its history right now, for we have lost faith in our leadership, those who speak to the world on our behalf, those who pass laws on our behalf. The polls do not represent you as a human being, nor does any newspaper or television show. Your Congress and your President do this job. And a civilization rests solely upon the strength of its citizens and the choices they make. But please beware... when you read this report, you will realize that all of your friends, co-workers, newspaper editors and journalists, and news reporters have based their opinions solely on months of speculation, propaganda, and other's opinions based on the same. This report contains only truth and facts, the sole nourishment for a mind that wishes to think for itself. The White House has not disputed _one_ fact within this report, and in the past they have not hesitated to refute any accusation that it knows to be false. The White House knows that this report is the truth. Please, arm yourself with truth and history, it is the only way that a free mind can continue to function. This report is truth and now it is part of your American history. Emotions do not determine whether information is truth or not, so set aside emotion and be the logical being that you know you are. Ken Starr has compiled these truths for you and your Congress, and this is an honorable action. You would not attack a journalist for reporting truth. And what are you more upset about: that Bill Clinton corrupted the presidency, or that Ken Starr reported it? Remember that Janet Reno appointed Ken Starr and that a panel of judges was watching him every day. Think about who your anger is truly focused at.Please... I have faith in you, friend. Only you can decide how to live your life... no one can tell you how to think. Find the facts for yourselves, and explore your beliefs.

Based on a True Story

I expected a dry legal brief, but was pleasantly surprised. Ken Starr's report reads with all the ease and salaciousness of a trashy romance novel. Despite the purient entertainment value, this is an important document that every American voter should read, regardless of whether they consider President Clinton the victim of a "conservative conspiracy," or just a sleaze (or both).
