you know, it s been 75 days for this investigation. the andrew johnson impeachment, three days between act and impeachment. you know, and the clinton one which he himself, this guy turley worked on that impeachment, that was 75 days. so, you know, there was a lot of stuff there that was really problematic. and you just asked about the watergate analogy. i think the most telling thing in yesterday s testimony was jonathan turley was asked has any president ever stone walled a congressional impeachment inquiry like this and prevented every witness and every document from coming forth, and he said i don t know i haven t studied that. well, the answer to that is obvious. it s no, no president has ever done this. and that s why not just as there s this smoking gun about the july 25th transcript, but
and, you know, that was obviously a huge miscalculation. and the republicans have been trying mightily ever since then to come up with any defense. i mean yesterday, lawrence, the hearing the republicans had one witness a guy named jonathan turley and i m certainly not going to attack his motivations or anything like that, but i will attack his consistency. because this was their one witness. and this witness is the same guy who said there was a low standard for high crimes and misdemeanors when clinton was being considered. a really low standard. and indeed when president obama was in office he said, oh, you don t need to commit a crime in order for an impeachable offense. and then he goes and turns around and takes all of that back in yesterday s testimony and then says a whole bunch of outlandish things. like for example he says this is an unprecedented investigation in terms of the speed of this impeachment. it s never happened before.
or on all tv drama throughout history. the smoking gun is never revealed in the first act. this is one of those cases where we got the smoking gun very early in the investigation at a point where someone in the white house apparently convinced the president that putting out this transcript could actually help him. exactly. and, you know, that was obviously a huge miscalculation. and the republicans have been trying mightily ever since then to come up with any defense. i mean yesterday, lawrence, the hearing the republicans had one witness a guy named jonathan turley and i m certainly not going to attack his motivations or anything like that, but i will attack his consistency. because this was their one witness. and this witness is the same guy who said there was a low standard for high crimes and misdemeanors when clinton was being considered. a really low standard. and indeed when president obama was in office he said, oh, you
