Talk:Pete Domenici
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This text is VERY similar to the text on http://domenici.senate.gov/about/background.cfm, which is linked at the bottom of the page. That page is a government website, but it almost seems to present the data in a more readable manner - a list.
Would there be any objection to moving some of the information to a list or timeline? Short of doing that, the entire article should be expanded significantly. Important legislation, political position, votes, etc would be a useful addition here.
Suggestions welcome.

[edit] RE: If Senator Domenici is still in the Senate when Ted Stevens retires or dies, and the Republicans are still in control, he will become President pro tempore of the Senate
RE: "If Senator Domenici is still in the Senate when Ted Stevens retires or dies, and the Republicans are still in control, he will become President pro tempore of the Senate."
- I don't think this is the place for "WHAT IF'S". If an astoriod hits the White House, if Bush dies, if Bush, Cheney, Rice, and half the Senate are in California, and there is an earthquake and falls into the sea, if Domenici runs for President, but then gives his support to Romney at the convention in order to be Vice-President, and then... We could play "what if's" until the cows, or astoriods, come home.

- Um, but that is how President Pro Tempore of the Senate works. It is handed to the most senior member of the majority party. If he/she doesn't want it, it is handed on down the line. Pete Domenici is the second most senior Republican after Ted Stevens. YourNickname 12:09, 17 Jun 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Staffers
From the page comments by WikiDon on the inclusion of former staffer Peter Vaghi: PS, I think this addition is a S..T..R..E..T..C..H, are we going to list all Domenici staffers?
- No, I suppose not, unless they are notable in their own right, as Vaghi is; in which case the association is of some interest, I think. Sandstein 06:57, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
- The page made no attempt to list all of Domenici's staffer, so the comment was most likely a misconception. YourNickname 07:03, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Birth weight
Why do we have to know Sen Domenici's birth weigh`? Why? Why? Why? --84.56.91.91 13:01, 27 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Last sentence
The last sentence is clearly anti-Domenici. It describes the energy bill as simply giving tax breaks to energy companies, and does not mention the opinion of supprters of the bill. It also links to thinkprogress, which is a very left wing website.Tommy11111 02:55, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
- Who supported this bill other than energy producers and politicians they fund?
