The most basic cross technique to expose a liar is to FIRST PIN THEM DOWN. You must pin them before you can nail them. Wexler missed this critical step.

Non laywers, hell, most lawyers overlook this step. Once pinned, you can then hit them with their lies. Done properly, it doesn’t matter what they say, anyone can see the lie.

So w/Condi, you start with: You said x, y, z… (all lies)

Yet, at this time, you had already read a,b, c, which all cast doubt on x, y, z, ….

So why did you then say X, y, z, when YOU, PERSONALLY HAD INFORMATION//KNEW THAT THEY WERE FALSE?

See how it’s done?

But the very first, and most critical step, is the pin.

See this:

A skilled cross-examiner recognizes instantly when an expert witness is equivocating, exploiting ambiguity, escaping into vagueness, trying to baffle and confuse, or simply doesn’t know what he or she is talking about. It is the cross-examiner’s job to pin the witness down, to ensure that the terms are well-defined and used in a consistent, logical manner. The energy and resourcefulness some experts devote to evading clarity and the anguish when all escape routes are cut off was vividly captured by a trial lawyer, who compared the process to a hunter who finally trees an evasive quarry.

It is a deep very dry well and nothing will come of it, so move on.

There is too much hope invested in this oversight business. It doesn’t seem to work very well.

Condi’s not respected internationally; she’s a thin-skinned prima donna, she’s defensive, and she’s in way over her head. (Show of hands for anyone who hasn’t seen this movie before…? There’s always an unpleasant end, where the prima donna melts down. Ick.)

She makes herself less relevant every time she opens her mouth.
She’ll deny her failures to her dying breath; let’s move on.
