Kenneth Starr May Defend Prop 8

A reprint from JMG:

According to Mother Jones, Bill Clinton's nemesis Kenneth Starr will bat for the haters in the coming Prop 8 case before the California Supreme Court.

The involvement of the former Clinton special prosecutor in efforts to preserve California's new ban on gay marriage really wouldn't come as much of a surprise. Two years ago, Starr, now dean of the Pepperdine law school, represented a bunch of anti-gay marriage groups, including the Mormon Church, in amicus briefs in some of California's gay marriage litigation. He's been involved in the issue for a while, now. Given the intense interest in other people's sex lives that Starr demonstrated during his investigation of the Lewinsky scandal, he seems a perfect fit for the job.
