But if every single person mentioned in the Mitchell report came out and said "yes, I did it"..........then what? Nothing. So I don't see the point of the report or the point of the hearings. The report just told us what half of us believed already.

Whether or not they should have been looking into it in the first place is besides the point. If the guy committed perjury you have to enforce it. If you are arrested for a crime you didn't commit and then kill the officer arresting you to escape does that make it ok because you shouldn't have been arrested in the first place? Obviously that is an extreme scenario but you get my point, if you commit a crime it isn't suddenly erased because maybe you shouldn't have been in that position in the first place.
