A Presidential Obstruction Select Committee?

Perhaps the House should create a "Presidential Obstruction Select Committee" similar to the Watergate Select Committee 45 years ago, before proceeding with impeachment hearings. The focus will be on acts of the Chief Executive to obstruct investigations by the Special Prosecutor and Congress. The key difference in the structure was that the Watergate Select Committee was in the Senate and this would be in the House, but the House can create such committees as they did with Benghazi. Thoughts?
