Dan Mongiardo on Principles & Values

2004 former Democratic challenger for Senate (KY)

Bunning has conduct that is unbecoming of a US senator

[Regarding Bunning saying Mongiardo looked like Saddam's son]:

BUNNING: I made an inappropriate comment, and for that I personally apologize to you. I would hope that you would do the same to my wife & my family for all of the horrible rumors that you & your staff have been circulating about my health.

MONGIARDO: You have conduct that is unbecoming of a US senator. You have conduct that is unbecoming of a Kentucky gentleman. So people are reaching, searching for an excuse for that poor conduct.
