U.S. Army veteran and former Congressman Max Cleland has a book coming out about his life and included in the book is an anecdote about former Senator Pete Domenici—which isn’t favorable to the retired long-serving New Mexico Senator.

According to the Huffington Post, Cleland’s memoir includes this tidbit relevant to New Mexicans:

During the Clinton impeachment vote, which Cleland opposed, the former Senator was suffering mono and he claims that one of his former colleagues ended up making him sicker.

“I wrapped a green scarf around my neck, trying to keep warm. Pete Domenici, the senator from New Mexico, insisted I remove my scarf, as it ‘violated the decorum of the Senate.’” Cleland took it off and says he soon felt that he could hardly hold his head up and eventually came down with a massive sinus infection.

An aide to Domenici did not return calls from Huffington Post to respond to Cleland’s claim.

Domenici famously wore hunting pants (or pajamas depending on who you ask) on Capitol Hill in his final years as Senator.
