Number one, the president asked for an investigation of a political rival. Number two, the president asked for an investigation of possible corruption by someone who happens to be a political rival.

The third step in Kennedy’s shell game is to distort the impeachment process. If the House investigation is an “impartial firing squad,” then so is your typical grand jury.
