Without any further ado:
STATEMENT OF SEN. HOWELL HEFLIN
HANDKERCHIEF
JULY 19, 1994
I mistakenly picked up a pair of my wife’s white panties and put them in my pocket while I was rushing out the door to go to work.
Rather than take a chance on being embarrassed again, I’m going to start buying colored handkerchiefs.
Time’s Karen Tumulty has the full story.

Oh, you old-school Dixiecrats! A Blue Dogger would have done the more interesting thing and started buying his wife colored underwear.

That is hilarious! Not knowing anything about the man, I'm guessing this was his attempt to head off lascivious headlines at the pass?
