So this piece of crap spends $50+ millions of our taxes to investigate a semen stain involving consensual sex, yet basically ignores multiple reports of RAPE on his own campus. Worse, his football coach, Art Briles, gets fired but he gets “reassigned.”
More proof that the religious activists in this country have absolutely no morals except imposing their own worldview on others.
Starr was hired to investigate the death of Vince Foster and the Clintons’ real estate dealings. When he couldn’t find any evidence of crimes, he got authorization to start a general investigation of the Clinton’s entire lives to see if he could find any crimes they could be charged with.
Yes, his job was to find something to get Clinton for. When one area after another came up dry, instead of reporting so, he asked for authorization to look somewhere else. Scaife rewarded him handsomely, too.
Come to think of it, though, Starr was “doing his job” this time, too - and, to be fair, it was the same job a hundred other schools hire their own presidents for. His job was to protect The Football Program no matter what, and let that academic stuff take care of itself somehow. He did that job as enthusiastically, and with as little regard for or apparent understanding of ethics, just like he did with the $40 million taxpayer-funded porn novel he wrote about Clinton.
Not to Godwinize the thread but how is this any different from the “I was just following orders” defense? Doesn’t Starr have responsibility for the job he agreed to do?
