Nope. As always, I state reality exactly as it is.

Your recall is flawed. Newt stepped down voluntarily.
And him stepping down is not really what I was referring to (although I guess it is possible that he voluntarily stepped down because he was tired of the witch hunts against him).

I recall it. I was incensed enough by all the outrages of the Democrats that I, for the first time ever, voted automatically for Republicans straight across the ballot.

False. He never investigated the sex. He only investigated all the felonies committed to try to hide the sex.
parados wrote:but I hardly think anyone conducted a witch hunt against Starr himself.
You are mistaken. The Democrats were one big hate machine at the time.
It was so nice to finally get them reined in, in 2001.
