1) STARR: Exactly right. It's part of the greatness of the country. You are not sent out into exile or what have you.

The then first lady is an extremely and able energetic secretary of state.

Kagan Helped Build Clinton's Whitewater Privilege Defense
As associate White House counsel in 1995, U.S. Supreme Court nominee Elena Kagan played a key role in building a public defense of President Bill Clinton’s claim of attorney-client privilege in a potential confrontation with Congress over a subpoena from the Senate committee investigating Whitewater, a failed Arkansas real estate venture. The committee sought notes from a meeting attended by a White House lawyer, personal lawyers for Clinton and the first lady, and senior officials.
Kagan documents on Whitewater and Paula Jones
EXCERPT:
“We are also still waiting on material from the Department of Defense relating to Ms. Kagan’s decision as Dean of Harvard Law School to discriminate against military recruiters and remove them from the campus recruiting office. These actions, in defiance of federal law, required intervention from the Department of Defense. I asked that records relating to the DOD’s contact with Harvard be provided no later than today.
Kagan on human cloning
EXCERPT:
Washington, DC (LifeNews.com) -- Add human cloning to abortion and assisted suicide as practices pro-life groups oppose but Supreme Court nominee Elena Kagan supports. Files released from the Clinton library about Kagan's time in the Clinton administration show her advocating cloning humans for dubious research.
Kagan served as a top domestic policy advisor for ex-President Bill Clinton from 1997-1999 and she played a key role in shaping and executing his response to new cloning technologies.
"Memoranda and emails released by the William J. Clinton Presidential Library on Friday document Kagan’s involvement in crafting an anti-life position and legislative proposal," says Americans United for Life, whose attorneys investigated them.
Kagan says gov. can restrict free speech
Kagan Wrote That Government Can Restrict Free Speech

As more hidden information is discovered about Supreme Court nominee Elena Kagan there is increasing cause for alarm. In documents uncovered by CNS, Kagan argued that restricting free speech is a legitimate role of government, provided government can establish the 'proper motive' for doing so.
In an article Kagan published in the University of Chicago Law Review in 1996, entitled, 'Private Speech, Public Purpose: the Role of Government Motive in First Amendment Doctrine.' she contends that the negative impact of a law restricting freedom of speech is subservient to the government's motive for enacting such restrictions.
As long as the government can show 'proper intent' in such restrictions on free speech, then the restrictions stand.
Kagen's family not talking to media
The most transparent Administration?? That is one of the biggest lies I have ever heard. The Obama Administration is the most closed, corrupt, and damaging Administration in the history of the United States.
White Houses traditionally put a muzzle on their Supreme Court nominees, to keep them from saying anything that might jeopardize Senate confirmation. But the Obama White House has taken it one step further. It is limiting, if not blocking, access to the nominee’s family.
The New York Times received permission on Tuesday from Hunter College High School in Manhattan, Elena Kagan’s alma mater, to observe a constitutional law class there taught by her brother Irving. We thought it would be intriguing to watch the give and take between Mr. Kagan, who is known as a passionate and interactive educator, and his students on his first day back after witnessing his sister’s nomination in Washington.
Mr. Kagan, who is also a Hunter alumnus, did not have a problem with the idea, a school spokeswoman said, but she added that all media requests now had to be given final approval by the White House. The times were tentatively set: there was either an 8:52 a.m. class or a 9:36 a.m. class on Wednesday. “I thought it would have been great,” said the spokeswoman, Meredith Halpern.
But when presented with the idea, the White House balked.
Joshua Earnest, a White House spokesman, said that the administration was “uncomfortable with the idea at this time.” The White House called Hunter, and Ms. Halpern said later Tuesday it could not permit the class observation. A formal proposal has been submitted to the White House, which the administration requested. They asked that it outline the intent and goal of the article in significant detail.
A cousin of Ms. Kagan, Gail Katz-James of Minneapolis, was quoted in a profile in The Times the day after the president announced the nomination. She described the “verbal sparring” around the dinner table in the Kagans’ Upper West Side apartment, saying that the family “just really enjoyed debating and discussing everything.”
But two days after the article appeared, when contacted again by the same reporter from The Times, Ms. Katz-James said: “I’m sorry. I’m not able to talk to you.” She was asked if the White House had directed her not to talk to the press. “Nope,” she said, and hung up the phone.
