...sure does garner attention. On Wednesday, McCulloch's lawyers - experienced anti-discrimination litigators Lynn Bernabei and Debra Katz - justified the presidential prominence by arguing that the Clinton White House didn't do anything to protect their client from the machinations of the chief cake decorator, and worse, failed to implement federal legislation requiring that procedures be set up so that White House employees could file grievances in just such cases...

Administrators at Liberty Middle School in Ashland, Va., started a similar program last year.
