James R. Hoffa, in an interview on UPI's Washington Window, says Charles Colson rather than President Nixon set the 1971 commutation terms that barred him from union office until 1980. Hoffa also doubted enough evidence exists to impeach Nixon, saying the House Judiciary Committee and Jaworski panel found nothing legally impeachable.
