Russell Baker Op-Ed column expresses disgust with all the principal players in White House scandal, including Federal judges who have given Kenneth Starr so much latitude that only fool would want to be President ever again; says news media spouts pious baloney about just doing their job, Monica Lewinsky's behavior is absurd, Linda Tripp's was despicable, and only those who hate Pres Clinton with fury could root for Starr; says there is nobody to root for, leaving sensitive people to loathe them all quietly for what they have done to country, how they have debased its culture (M)
