huh? too bad they didn't write it in plain english...
In December 1997, Jones’s attorneys subpoenaed Monica Lewinsky ... directing her to appear the next month to testify and to produce certain items, including gifts from President Clinton. As the investigation ultimately revealed, Lewinsky, an intern and later employee in the White House, had been having a sexual relationship with President Clinton since about 1995. They had agreed, however, that they would deny the relationship if ever asked about it. In response to the subpoena, Lewinsky in early January 1998 executed an affidavit falsely denying any sexual relationship with the President. Shortly thereafter, Lewinsky accepted a job in the private sector which she was able to obtain with the assistance of a friend to the President, Washington attorney Vernon Jordan.
... On January 12, 1998, Tripp contacted the Office of Independent Counsel (OIC) and advised that office that Lewinsky had told her that she was preparing to file a false affidavit, had and stated her intent to lie if deposed, and had urged Tripp to lie in her own deposition. Unbeknownst to Lewinsky, Tripp had taped conversations between herself and Lewinsky which corroborated the information she presented to the IC. On January 13, 1998, the OIC consensually monitored a conversation between Tripp and Lewinsky during which Lewinsky offered Tripp a one-half interest in a condominium if Tripp would join her in perjury in the Jones case.
On January 17, 1998, Clinton was deposed in the Jones case. United States District Judge Susan Webber Wright of the District of Arkansas had traveled from Little Rock to Washington, D.C. to preside over the deposition. Despite the Court’s orders requiring discovery regarding state or federal employees with whom he had conducted or from whom he had solicited sexual relations, President Clinton during the deposition ‘‘by clear and convincing evidence [Clinton] responded to plaintiff’s questions by giving false, misleading and evasive answers that were designed to obstruct the judicial process.’’
In the meantime, on January 16, 1998, the OIC had confronted Lewinsky with evidence of her crimes and attempted to obtain her cooperation in exchange for immunity. ...
The investigation continued. Among other evidence, the IC obtained a box of gifts given by Clinton to Lewinsky during the course of their sexual relationship. After receiving the subpoena, Lewinsky had turned the gifts over to Betty Curry, Clinton’s personal secretary, who had secreted the gifts in further obstruction of the Jones litigation....
As a result of the evidence of perjury, subornation of perjury, and obstruction of justice, the House of Representatives voted to impeach President Clinton on December 19, 1998. On February 12, 1999, following trial on two articles of impeachment, the Senate voted on whether to remove Clinton from office. Although a majority of Senators voted for removal, the vote fell short of the two-thirds’ concurrence necessary for conviction of President Clinton.
in common parlance, ...
Dear Ms. Lewinsky,
You ignorant slut! you are a self-admitted liar and perjurer. You engaged in a scheme with Sick Willy to try and obstruct justice. He was impeached & disbarred. Your name has been forever & historically bestowed with a particular sexual act (ie "The Lewinsky" as in "to get a Lewinsky", see Websters et. al.). Your attempt to try and justify your claims with comparisons to previous cases involving Independent Counsels and great Americans like Ollie North just don't cut it. Frankly, you're lucky the government didn't bill you for the replacement costs for the sinks.
Sincerely,
US Court of Appeals
PS - Your former attorney Mr. Ginsburg was a total fool if not complete idiot and absolute moron. Even if the moon was made of green cheese and we even thought you deserved anything other than what you've wrought, we'll point you to over $1 million in wasted legal fees you'll now be repaying you might have otherwise not if he wasn't so incompetent.
