Puppet regrets his role in the puppetshow

The Solar Seminar recently hosted my take on the Clinton Impeachment clownshow and now a new book is out, revealing the sordid goings on behind the scenes. It's called “The Death of American Virtue: Clinton vs. Starr,” by Ken Gormley and the New York Times has a review. I found this passage to be very telling:

There has been no equivalent satisfaction for Monica Lewinsky or for many other participants who still view the events with despair. Even Kenneth Starr, dean at the Pepperdine University School of Law, who this week was named president of Baylor University, regrets that his office wound up as the authority investigating the Lewinsky matter. Recalling his emotions as he watched the impeachment proceedings on television, Starr told Gormley that he asked himself: “Why did all of this have to happen? Why did we get to where we are? This is all so unnecessary.”

Starr might be an unquestioning footsoldier for the Dominionist agenda, but he's no dummy. It may have taken a while, but homeboy eventually realized he got played, and that his programming was used against him. He certainly wasn't alone in that, was he?
