Ken Starr was a great lawyer, but much more than that, he was a good man. As things often go at the intersection of law and politics, he had plenty of reasons not to be. A brilliant constitutional conservative, federal appellate judge, and solicitor general — perennially in the mix for nomination to the nation’s highest court — he had the patriotic devotion to take on the most thankless task in modern American history: independent counsel in the investigation of President Clinton. For that, the media-Democrat complex spared no effort to destroy him . . . personally. The deeper they dug into the muck, though, the more determined he was to complete his work while maintaining his dignity, honor, and civility.
It was a real privilege to befriend him these last years, mainly at NR Institute events and working together at Fox.
