Conservatives, brace yourselves. Steel your spines. The liberal media establishment has long since abandoned any pretense of objective reporting. They've declared an all-out war on conservative Republican candidates and it's going to get worse.

Kenneth Starr was thrust into the limelight when he was appointed Independent Counsel investigating first Whitewater and its successor, the Monica Lewinsky affair, which led to the unsuccessful impeachment of President Bill Clinton. The jurist joined the Eree Enterprise Fund, a conservative think tank that filed a lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB), a mandate of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.
