((It's all about the now familiar theme of attorney-client privilege.
The Clinton administration has been trying to block White House lawyers from testifying in the Monica Lewinsky investigation. The White House has been arguing that they can't be compelled to talk because discussions with attorneys on the public payroll should be as privileged as those with private lawyers. And there are also concerns about the rights of any president to have confidential counsel.
But this morning, the Chief Justice of the United States, William Rehnquist, turned down the White House appeal_clearing the way for lawyers Bruce Lindsey and Lanny Breuer to take the stand before Kenneth Starr's grand jury.
Before the Chief Justice's decision was known this morning, Starr wasn't saying much.

(KENNETH STARR:")


Starr has been insisting that Lindsey and Breuer_part of Clinton's inner circle may have crucial information about the allegations of lies and a cover-up in the Lewinsky case.
