To top it all off, a newly elected congressman from Cleveland named EdFeighan was watching one day after I had applied for an entry-level position in his office.
Feighan called the next day: "If you can get yourself on Nightline, maybe you can do some good for me." The job title was legislative assistant, which meant I would draft letters, memos, and speeches on whatever the congressman was working on.
Feighan questioned the invasion from the floor of the House and he never let me forget it.
It seems the Bahamian government was angry with one of the congressional investors, former Rep. Edward Feighan, who had the bad business sense to introduce a bill cutting off United States aid to the Bahamas, which he accused of helping a cocaine cartel.

In early 1989, Gore, Mrazek, Feighan, McHugh, and Reps. John Bryant (D-Texas), William Lehman (D-Fla), Butler Derrick (D-SC), and Tom McMillen (D-Md) purchased 17-acre Pierre Island in the Bahamas for $475,000.
