In 1989-1991 I was part of a legal team that represented Senator John McCain in an investigation by the Senate Ethics Committee into the so-called “Keating Five” matter. I had an opportunity to spend time with the Senator, and it was one of the best experiences I have ever had.

I recall the Navajo people talking about how McStain was a bitch for Perkins Coie. I think they may have represented the mining company too. I know he was a bitch for Resolution Copper. The Navajo women hated Perkins Coie.

The bush may have been Dictamnus albus with common names that include burning bush, gas plant, and dittany. It is an herbaceous woody stemmed perennial that produces spikes of little starry flowers in early summer. It grows three feet tall and has glossy green leaves in zones 3 to 9. Full sun and fertile soil are needed for it to flower well, and it can be propagated from seed.

There are both white and pale pink and purple flowering varieties, and all dislike being moved once they are established. These plants are pest free and long lived, however.

They have the unusual habit of exuding aromatic oil from the leaves, and in warm weather a lighted match held near to the leaves is said to result in the bush becoming engulfed in flames. It is such a short flare-up of flames, however, that the plant itself is not harmed.
