Former independent counsel Ken Starr writes in his new memoir that he considered -- but ultimately abandoned -- the idea of perjury charges against then-first lady Hillary Clinton after her “preposterous” deposition with investigators in 1995. Recalling the president’s answers during that interview, Starr writes, “Clinton bobbed and weaved, but was always pleasant as he avoided answering.”The first lady, though, was a different story. “In the space of three hours, she claimed, by our count, over a hundred times that she ‘did not recall’ or ‘did not remember,’” Starr writes. “What was clear was that Mrs. Clinton couldn’t be bothered to make it appear as if she were telling the truth.”A spokesman for Hillary Clinton did not immediately return a request for comment. At several points in the memoir, he references then-associate Brett Kavanaugh, the current Supreme Court nominee who once worked for Starr on the Clinton investigation.
