The Failed Pacifist

Ethics Panel Criticizes Domenici

The Senate ethics committee has issued a "Public Letter of Qualified Admonition" to Senator Pete Domenici for his infamous phone call to U.S. Attorney David Iglesias.

"The committee does find that you should have known that a federal prosecutor receiving such a telephone call, coupled with an approaching election which may have turned on or been influenced by the prosecutor's actions ... created an appearance of impropriety that reflected unfavorably on the Senate."
