then at the end of it i took out this bosart/thompson memo. i took off the front part indicating exactly what it was and gave him the part that described the meeting between the president and dean. >> they were set up like a transcript? summary transcript. >> like a summary of the transcript and in a sense -- everything had a twist, tracked what dean's testimony had been and it was prepared before dean's testimony but it always had this twist that dean was responsible for whatever the evil act was at the end. if there was something afraid it would come out, but none was available -- none came out publicly. this was not known. so with this document, i handed it to alex and i said, can you explain, given the systems you just described, how this would be reconstructed? what's it from? and we went through the president's dictabelts. all the different things that -- because i was thinking it came -- it was a created document by nixon based on what they thought dean would testify to. one was, how did they know what dean was going to testify to? but

i was thinking thompson has to resign and thompson will have to lead the committee. pretty naive, but that was my beli belief. >> being frank, one of the things die in the pre-session before i appeared publicly, i decided to let baker, howard baker, know that i knew he had a back channel to the white house, and pretty much what he's said, because i'd written the president's talking papers and helped facilitate and set up the meeting. rather than pull the rug out from undermeanpu publicly i think it neutered him. he said what else do i know that he wanted to be careful about? and i knew -- i knew from my dealings with sam dash in preparation of my appearance that howard was -- much too -- the frustration of sam dash seemed to be always taking very anti-positions about my testimony in private. as soon as the majority resolvaled they needed my testimony, he would come out and make it look like it was almost his position. so i tried to use this strategically when i did. >> tell us how -- keep this moving along, how it comes down to -- once you get al flex there, what hap
