Contrary to what your biased review indicates, this is not a book at all. It is a factual report of what happend. It was all made necessary by Clintons's acts and evasions. To compare it with a Harold Robbins novel or to pornography simply misses the mark entirely. It is a comprehensive report to congress.

I think that people should form their own opinions of the Clinton scandal AFTER reading the Starr Report. Extremely well documented. This should be read by every American in order to get the story straight as to why Clinton is being accused of perjury. The report has been damned for being too sexually graphic. However, this is a necessity since the details refute everything Clinton said during the Paula Jones deposition. Instead of saying Clinton is guilty or innocent based on one's emotional feelings for the man, an opinion should be formed after reading the Starr Report. I have passed on my copy of the book around in the office and am encouraging everyone to read it.

It isn't about sex. It never was about sex. But, unless a sane person owns their own television network, the truth will never air on national networks. This manuscript is a piece of history. Many Americans believed that Clinton's first term in office was basically a free ride on the successes of his predecessor (Bush pushed for the balanced budget). Many Americans also believed that his second term would be littered with personal problems and make him ineffective as a president. In light of these facts, he was elected to office. Many of the votes came from undiscerning Americans that believe the media. This entire affaire in the life of a president and the impact on this country is a reflection on the power of the media, the poor quality of public education, liberalism versus conservatism, destruction of family values in America, the advancement of evil humanistic values, and the average citizens inability to choose a man with strong character and the right principles. The warning signs have been there since the beginning. He didn't serve his country in time of war and certainly hasn't done so in time of peace. The ideals and bills he has passed for his own agenda will undermine America permanently.

The report and the consequences are weighed against America, not the individual man that has been set upon a pedestal and judged openly. It is a testament to bad times in America.

This book should be required reading for every registered voter. The issue is not sex -- the issue is purjury, buyoffs, and attempting to influence the testamony of others. Clinton has some pretty tough charges to answer once Congress gets its mind off sex and partisanship.

Regardless of your opinion of WJC and Starr, there's too much here to blame it on the vast right-wing conspiracy. There's the "hero". He has a tragic flaw. That flaw leads to his downfall -- purjury. No matter how the sequel turns out - impeachment or no - this is enough of a page turner to occupy an afternoon.

Just taking a look at various Starr books and this seems to be the cheapest one. However, sales rank contradicts that. Why
