"Philippe Reines, former spokesperson for Hillary Clinton, tweeted that he'd love to see the first draft, to which Lewinsky replied this actually was -- essentially -- the first draft (i futzed w/ order a wee bit)... but therapy next week will be... interesting.Having gotten graciousness out of the way, let's take a few minutes to remember why Ken Starr didn't deserve a bit of it, which is what made Lewinsky's comments so graceful to begin with."

"The first, Robert Fiske, had been appointed by then-Attorney General Janet Reno, but William Rehnquist, then the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, blocked Reno's bid to renew Fiske's appointment because after all, she had been nominated by Bill Clinton and anyone she picked would not be independent enough."

"We actually won't go into too much detail on the most infamous line of Starr's obituary, his pursuit of Bill and Hillary Clinton in the Whitewater investigation, which started off as a probe into a failed real estate investment by the Clintons but kept expanding into other areas, including the eventual discovery that Bill Clinton had had an affair in the Oval Office with Lewinsky, then an intern."

"Starr's singleminded pursuit of Clinton, and the resulting attacks on Lewinsky, are plenty awful, but since that's central to every obituary out there, we'll let you go read those obits and we'll look at some of the other terrible facets of the Ken Starr Story, starting with his reopening of the investigation into the death of Vince Foster."

"But in 1995, one of Starr's investigators, an ambitious prick with no chin and multiple foreheads named Brett Kavanaugh, nonetheless persuaded Starr to reopen the investigation into Foster's death, explaining that we have received allegations that Mr. Foster's death related to President and Mrs. Clinton's involvement in Whitewater and Crom knows what-all other evildoings."

"Here's the thing: Fiske had looked into Vince Foster's 1993 suicide and determined -- like multiple other investigations had -- that Foster, the White House Counsel, had killed himself, no matter how hard rightwing conspiracy theories insisted maybe Hillary Clinton had him murdered to cover up something nasty about Whitewater."

"Kavanaugh also was super interested in the nonsense rumor that Hillary Clinton had had an affair with Foster, and that's now the guy who's taking away abortion rights."

"Also, after he was all done with trying to bring down Bill Clinton, Starr went on to be the president of Baylor University, where he was shitcaed in 2016 for his part in covering up -- or failing to take appropriate action to respond to -- a massive sexual assault scandal involving the football team, and then he helped defend the indefensible Donald Trump in his first impeachment, fuck him, he's dead, the end."
