| [1:31:45] | David, starting on camera three in four, three, two and… | 戴维 三号机开拍 四 三 二 … |
| [1:31:57] | Now, looking back on your final year in office, | 现在 回顾您在任的最后一年 |
| [1:32:00] | do you feel you ever obstructed justice | 您认为自己曾妨碍司法了吗 |
| [1:32:03] | or were part of a conspiracy to cover up or obstruct justice? | 或说曾经参与密谋掩盖罪行或妨碍司法了吗? |
| [1:32:06] | No. | 没有 |
| [1:32:08] | And I’m interested that you used the term “obstruction of justice.” | 而且我觉得很有意思 你使用了”妨碍司法”这个词 |
| [1:32:13] | Now, you perhaps have not read the statute | 尤其是 你大概也没读过宪法中 |
| [1:32:15] | with regard to the obstruction of justice. | 有关妨碍司法的内容 |
| [1:32:17] | As it happens, I have. | 很不凑巧 我读过 |
| [1:32:20] | You have, you say? Well, then, you’ll know it doesn’t just require an act. | 读了 你是说? 那么你就知道那不仅需要一项行为 |
| [1:32:27] | It requires a specific corrupt motive. | 还需要明确的不良动机 |
| [1:32:30] | And in this case, I didn’t have a corrupt motive. | 然而在此案之中 我并没有不良动机 |
| [1:32:34] | What I was doing was in the interests of political containment. | 我做的不过是为了政治遏制的目的 |
| [1:32:37] | Be that as it may, the direct consequences | 即使如此 您行为的 |
| [1:32:40] | of your actions would have been | 直接后果就导致了 |
| [1:32:41] | that two of the convicted burglars | 两名有罪的窃贼 |
| [1:32:43] | would have escaped criminal prosecution. | 可以逃脱刑事诉讼 |
| [1:32:45] | Now, how can that not be a cover-up or obstruction of justice? | 这又如何能不被称为掩盖罪行或妨碍司法呢? |
| [1:32:48] | Well, I think the record shows, Mr. Frost, | 这个嘛 福斯特先生 我认为 审判记录证明 |
| [1:32:50] | that far from obstructing justice, | 那绝不能称之为妨碍司法 |
| [1:32:54] | I was actively facilitating it. | 我是很积极的配合司法 |
| [1:32:56] | When Pat Gray of the FBI telephoned me, this was July 6, | 联邦调查局的帕特・格雷给我打电话 那天是7月6日 |
| [1:33:01] | I said, “Pat, you go right ahead with your investigation.” | 我说 “帕特 你尽管放手去调查好了” |
| [1:33:04] | That’s hardly what you’d call obstructing justice. | 你大概不能说那是妨碍司法吧 |
| [1:33:06] | Well, that may be, but for two weeks prior to July 6, | 嗯 也许是吧 但7月6日之前两周 |
| [1:33:10] | we now know that you were desperately | 我们现在已经知道您是极力 |
| [1:33:11] | trying to contain or block the investigation. | 想遏制或阻挠案件调查的 |
| [1:33:13] | No, no. Hang on a minute there. I wasn’t… | 不不 等一会 我是… |

| [1:33:16] | whether it’s for a minute or five minutes, | 不论是妨碍了一分钟还是五分钟 |
| [1:33:18] | and it’s no defense to say that your plan failed. | 而且也没必要辩护说您的计划失败了 |
| [1:33:20] | I mean, if I try to rob a bank and fail, that’s no defense. | 我是说 假如我想抢劫银行却失败了 就无可辩护了 |
| [1:33:23] | I still tried to rob the bank. | 说到底我还是想抢银行 |
| [1:33:25] | Will you just wait one minute there, Mr. Frost? | 你能不能稍等片刻 福斯特先生? |
| [1:33:28] | There is no evidence of any kind that I was… | 没有任何证据表明我曾… |
| [1:33:30] | Well, the reason there is no evidence | 然而没有证据的 |
| [1:33:32] | is because 18 and a half minutes | 原因却是18分30秒 |
| [1:33:33] | of the conversation with Bob Haldeman from this June period | 鲍勃・霍尔德曼在六月期间谈话的磁带 |
| [1:33:37] | have mysteriously been erased. | 很神秘的被清除了 |

| [1:33:50] | a conversation with Charles Colson, | 和查尔斯・寇尔森的谈话记录 (尼克松总统的首席特别顾问) |
| [1:33:55] | which I don’t think has ever been published. | 我认为这份资料从未公开过 |

| [1:34:01] | It hasn’t been published, you say? | 从未公开过 你说? |
| [1:34:03] | No, but one of my researchers found it in Washington | 没有 但我们的一位调查员在华盛顿找到了 |
| [1:34:07] | where it’s available to anyone who consults the records. | 只要去查看卷宗的人都可以看 |

| [1:34:24] | But this transcript of a tape made three days earlier | 但该录音是三天之前誊抄下来的 |
| [1:34:27] | clearly shows that to be a falsehood. | 很显然您所言并非属实 |
| [1:34:30] | Now, in it you say to Colson, “This whole investigation rests | 而且其中您对寇尔森说 “中止整个调查 |
| [1:34:37] | “unless one of the seven begins to talk. | “除非七人中有人开口说话 |
| [1:34:45] | “That’s the problem.” | “那才是症结所在” |
| [1:34:47] | Well, what do we mean when we say | 那么 我说”除非七人中有人开口说话” |
| [1:34:51] | “one of the seven beginning to talk”? | 到底是什么意思? |
