Ken Starr has been determined from the start to bring you down.
- Jeri L. Morris, Union, Ky.

The American people have more to fear from the Gestapo-like tactics of Ken Starr than any wrongdoing on your part. Your policies pose a threat to the right wing. Hang in there, and let's get the patients' bill of rights passed.
- Maureen Gallardo, Hamilton

Refugees in Kosovo, roiled financial markets, terrorism . . . Global challenges remain unanswered while at home cities rot, schools are troubled and health care is in crisis. What do we do? We spend $40 million to investigate an Arkansas land deal and end up studying the president's penis in great detail. We must be collectively nuts.
- Dough Katchen, Clifton

Ken Starr has been determined from the start to embarrass you and bring you down. It would not surprise me to discover that Monica Lewinsky was on his payroll. You're human. As I read the Starr report, I felt a great deal of empathy for your position. You're the best president this country has had in my lifetime. Don't let them win.
- Jeri L. Norris, Union, Ky.

You are doing a fine job and outsiders, like other people in the world, should mind their own business.
- Jeannie Smith, Kennedy Heights

What is "independent" about Kenneth Starr? Wasn't he a former legal counsel for the multi-billion dollar tobacco industry
- Ken Crawford, Harrison

As a German citizen living in Cincinnati I'm ashamed how a progressive and open-minded country handles such conflicts. Only the public curiosity forced (the president) to lie to protect his fall and himself.
- Christine Koenig, Loveland

What you do in private is your business. Starr and Lewinsky should be made to pay for all the time and money they wasted.
- Shirley Lewis, Groesbeck

Mr. President, you are doing a good job for the country. What you do in your house is your own business.
- Whitey Klein, Brown County

What you choose to do for recreation is your own business. This situation in no way should affect your presidency.
- Gretchen Guy, Covington

I think you've been more sinned against than sinning and what you choose to do for recreation is your own business. God forgives.
- Martha Guy-Grote, Covington

You did a pretty good job for our country so far.
- Ruth Dahlehoff, Covington

Who hired and who paid Linda Tripp to illegally record this blabbering star-struck "intern"? That was despicable!! Hang in there, Bill!
- Marilyn Edgell, Bridgetown

I think people expect too much from our presidents. So he lied, like any man would have to protect his loved ones.
- Juanita Goodale, Cincinnati

The Republican party cannot win the (White House) honorably, so they use Sicko-Starr, to do their dirty work for them.
- Geneva Noell, St. Petersburg, Fla.

What happened to the Whitewater investigation?
- Ray Silver, Milford

You are doing one hell of a job. You need to keep your head up and don't worry about the Republicans because I support you.
- Sara Irby & family, College Hill

You are punished more than enough. Someone had a agenda to destroy you.
- Ashok D. Patel, Florence

After reading the Starr report and listening to various pundits on TV, we believe this investigation should never have gone this far and is sexual McCarthyism. We support you 100 percent.
- Kathy and Bill Gottschlich, Paddock Hills

Why does Ken Starr believe Lewinsky and not you. I am so disappointed with the senators. I wouldn't vote for any of them.
- Jessie Mersch, Northside

I wonder what kind of person saves a dress for over a year? Obviously, it was part of a larger plan. You were set up! How ethical is that?
- Glenn Woods, Northside

This entire Clinton sex scandal story can be attributed to the old quote: "Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned." After the tryst ended, Monica says to herself, "I won't get mad, I'll just get even."
- Betty Lancaster, Cincinnati

I would tell him that what he does personally is none of my business. I wish they would quit wasting our tax money.
- Jole Meriges, Mount Carmel

Has it been asked or it needs to be asked, Why did Monica keep a dirty dress? I think you were set up and I hope your counsel digs deep for answers.
- Tanya Joe, Madisonville

Ken Starr is smart enough to know he had no grounds for impeachment, but submitted his report merely to make public the details of your affair (which I don't condone). Where's the immorality of Tripp's taping?
- Tillie Justin, Kennedy Heights

You have embarrassed the hell out of the Republican Party. Your balanced budget, your lowest-ever unemployment figures, your low inflation rate. . . . Keep up your good work for our great nation.
- Paul H. Bird, Norwood

Just remember President Clinton, the old saying "Don't get mad - get even." After this is all over, go for that scum, Ken Starr. Good luck.
- Velma Lyons, Florence

I'm sorry that so many Americans - especially Greater Cincinnatians - are more interested in your sex life than pressing world affairs.
- Kay Sterling, Ft. Mitchell

I thought the Congress was against smut on the Internet. Oh, I guess broadcasting smut anywhere and everywhere is morally acceptable if it is used to embarrass a Democratic president.
- David A. Greely, Clifton

Have you been entrapped by Starr and the Republicans? Entrapment is a crime. Sex is not. Your personal life is just that: personal and private. You have my sympathy.
- Peter Connell, Milford

The money spent investigating him could have been used for numerous important issues . . . There are those who don't want him in the White House and we can see the lengths they have taken to get rid of him.
- Lori Lewis, Kennedy Heights

It is time people come to realize that even the president can also be human. You are not a god, a saint, or even the perfect human being. This investigation has been nothing but nonsense.
- Gregory Gibson, Chattanooga, Tenn.

I am ashamed about the way Kenneth Starr exploited you and Ms. Monica Lewinsky on the Internet. You are a great President, family man. Move on and let you, and your loving wife continue to do the good deeds for our nation.
- Evalina Moultrie, Florence

I would say Starr needs to get a life and quit messing with yours. You have made this country a better place to live, and for that we are behind you and we thank you.
- Patty Stimetz, Fairfield

If a person in your position is not trusted, jit is impossible to lead. . . . If you remain in office, you will spend all of your waking hours defending yourself instead of doing the people's work.
- Bryan Hoffman, Greenhills

I'm tired of our media. However, as a citizen, I am very disappointed. . . . I forgive you and I am sure that if you have repented that our God forgives you and loves you very much.
- Rebecca Burris, Erlanger

I am a Republican, but I did vote for you both times around. . . . You have made some mistakes in the past . . . but eveyone has made mistakes in their life time. . . . I do not feel that impeachment or asking you to resign would correct these mistakes.
- Lee Carpenter, Latonia
Did you forgive yourself? You will never forgive yourself unless you ground yourself. For that, now onwards. No handshakes with females No eye-contacts with any female No hug with any female That's the only way to help your wife, daughter, friends and country.
- Malti M. Desai, 47, Sharonville

We accept your apology, Mr. President. We forgive you for your errors. Hang in there, This is a critical time in world affairs. Don't let the zealots drive you from office.
- Roger Barry, Milford

I do forgive you as you asked me to do. The Lord told us to forgive 70x7 times. Since I am living for the Lord, I need to obey Him. I wish the very best to you and your family in the future. Love in Christ
- Linda Evans, Anderson, Ind.
