Who me? Nixon was the guy who created the OIC law (not intentionally, of course). Before the OIC law exsisted, it was thought that any trial of a president would take place in the Senate, after the House of Reps voted for impeachment. No doubt, the Founding Fathers felt that this threat was good enough to ensure compliance with the law. I guess they thought that politicians were good investigators but after watching the House hearings on fundraising, I can only surmise that it really takes a professional investigator to do the job as opposed to someone like Tommy Thompson. The only people who don't like the OIC laws are those that have been hit by them because these guys tend to be good. -John
