The introduction of the Independant Counsel Clinton Impeachment Referral was very interesting. I wonder just how many Democrats and talking heads will be ignoring this part:
" When the OIC's jurisdiction was expanded to cover the Lewinsky matter in January 1998, several matters remained under active investigation by this Office. Evidence was being gathered and evaluated on, among other things, events related to the Rose Law Firm's representation of Madison Guaranty Savings & Loan Association; events related to the firings in the White House Travel Office; and events related to the use of FBI files. Since the current phase of the investigation began, additional events arising from the Lewinsky matter have also come under scrutiny, including possible perjury and obstruction of justice related to former White House volunteer Kathleen Willey, and the possible misuse of the personnel records of Pentagon employee Linda Tripp.
And this part is most important:
" As that phase of the investigation neared completion, it also became apparent that a delay of this Referral until the evidence from all phases of the investigation had been evaluated would be unwise. Although Section 595(c) does not specify when information must be submitted, its text strongly suggests that information of this type belongs in the hands of Congress as soon as the Independent Counsel determines that the information is reliable and substantially complete. All phases of the investigation are now nearing completion. This Office will soon make final decisions about what steps to take, if any, with respect to the other information it has gathered. Those decisions will be made at the earliest practical time, consistent with our statutory and ethical obligations. "
This, and other passages, indicate that Whitewater, Filegate and Travelgate are far from closed files; and in fact, they are soon to be finished. We shall see if they turn into three more referrals for possible impeachment.

I didn't put up the Whitehouse rebuttal, because it was more embarassment to the President, than a real defense. They have no defense, and it's obvious. It says that; an intimate sexual relationship, is not, an intimate relationship of a sexual nature? Most of the rest is a predatory attack on Ken Starr.
