Top Clinton Aide Leaving His Post Under Pressure - New York Times:
"Mr. Penn met with the Colombians in his role as chief executive of Burson-Marsteller, a global public relations firm. He has refused to sever his ties to the company, which also represented Countrywide Financial, the nation’s largest mortgage lender, and through a subsidiary represented Blackwater Worldwide, the military contractor blamed for numerous civilian deaths in Iraq."

It would seem that people were all too aware of the conflicts of interest Mr. Penn's presence made apparent. Whatever, it's too little, too late.
