so that helped me out. was not on the committee very long when newt kinge c bridge calls to say he had a homework assignment because i was a prosecutor and a judge for pro we don t know what will have been with this special prosecutor kenial starr was working in secret.g remember before this committee was investigating whitewater, travelgate and all of the different hushh money to former staffers who sta went two prison in renting the lincoln bedroom and all of the things judge starrat was investigating now had to pick of this issue as well.yo . . interview former members of congress, democrats and republicans involved in previous investigations of a president and find out what were and what didn t. what are the mistakes made? how do we avoid them? i settled to that as long as he let me interview you last. so he agreed to that. so i started this project could take several months tonight interviewed maybe 10 or 12 people. fred thompson from watergate because senator thompson b
