"How did Starr’s perverse style of conservatism, supposedly motivated by Biblical rectitude, inform his abuse of the heroic [Monica] Lewinsky and his subsequent excusal of rapes and rapists?

It is impossible to find in this reactionary figure even a trace of respect for female dignity and equality.
"And now we know just how deeply embedded his pious misogyny is in the modern Republican Party that still admires Ken Starr." -- Joe Conason in The National Memo, on the recently deceased Kenneth Starr, prosecutor- cum- ratfucker of the Clintons and self-righteous defender of Jeffrey Epstein and Donald Trump. If anyone deserves to be spoken of unkindly, it's this unctuous hypocrite, as Conason demonstrates.
