The most Senior Rethug Senator, the longest serving Rethug Senator has been indicted on seven counts of corruption.

He may need that bridge to nowhere to escape from prison after he is sentenced.

The Ted Stevens Indictment Is an Earthquake in Alaska Politics
<snip>
How will this earthquake in Alaska politics play out? Stevens is probably still the favorite in the Republican primary, but in both public and private polls he has been running well behind Democrat Mark Begich, the son of Nick Begich, who has had high job ratings as mayor of Anchorage (a highly visible job, because nearly half of Alaskans live in or near Anchorage). But even his little-known challenger might now win the August 26 primary. And if Stevens wins the Republican nomination primary and then resigns the nomination, the state Republican Party could replace him with another candidate, although it's not clear who; the Republican state chairman is reportedly not on speaking terms with Governor Palin. In the House race, Parnell has been running slightly ahead of Don Young in public polls, while in general election pairings, Berkowitz has been running far ahead of Young but slightly behind Parnell. Parnell's advantages include his party label and his close association with Governor Palin. Berkowitz's advantages include his articulateness and reputation as a reformer, including his denunciation of Veco in the legislature.

The Stevens indictment is just one more piece of evidence of the rottenness that has permeated Alaska politics. Nevertheless, I felt sad at the news. Stevens has worked diligently for Alaska for more than 40 years; in the 1950s, he was solicitor in the Interior Department and worked hard for Alaska statehood. As senator, he played a lead role in authorizing the Alaska pipeline, which made possible oil development on the North Slope and shaped the Alaska Native Claims Act—which I consider the best resolution of the claims of aboriginal peoples in American history. He has worked hard not only for oil and gas development but also for Alaska Natives, who make up 15 percent of the state's population. At his peak of popularity, he carried every precinct in the state. Now he faces defeat and disgrace for actions that, even if true, weigh far less, in my opinion, in the balance of history than the contributions he has made. This is a tragedy for a man who grew up poor in Los Angeles, was a pilot in World War II, went to Harvard Law on the GI bill and then moved to the Alaska territory and has done so much for his state.

I feel less sympathetic toward Don Young's plight. His sponsorship of the $250 million "Bridge to Nowhere"—a bridge from the town of Ketchikan (population 8,000) to the island of Gravina (population 80)—was the issue that, more than anything else in my opinion, caused the defeat of the House Republican majority in 2006. He did it because as chairman of the Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, he could. He also advocated an increase in the gas tax—political anathema to conservatives. More than any single other member, he was responsible for the image of out-of-control spending that did so much to demoralize conservative voters, to repel independents, and to defeat House Republicans in 2006. Like Stevens, he seems unlikely to return to the next Congress.

15. Don't worry

Larry Kudlow is there to defend him.

[many a good man]

16. Its just Democrats "criminalizing politics" again!

[nam78_two]

17. He was a true believer-he championed environmental destruction with a devotion

even some Freepers can only aspire to...
POS...

[lynettebro440]

19. Reminds me of a hell of a freeper rant

I had back in 2005.

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=104&topic_id=4822145

[malaise]

20. That was one fabulous rant

Why don't you repost it. It is brilliant. :yourock:

[lynettebro440]

22. For Real?

[malaise]

23. Really

It's excellent.

[RedLetterRev]

36. OMG! Wonderful!!

What, were we separated at birth?? I'm sorry I was away from DU then. Thank you for reposting the link!!! Those words are still absolutely the truth.

[yardwork]

50. That is one hell of a rant and I hope you repost it on its own thread.

You might want to remove the reference to "retarded." That's my only quibble. I like the rest of it. A lot.

[malaise]

51. She did

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=389x3699443

It is a classic rant.

[yardwork]

53. I'll go rate it up!

[Catherine Vincent]

26. But.. but....what about William Jefferson?

hahaha!

[mcctatas]

27. I just waded into the mire to find out what the freepers have to say

I especially liked the call to wait for confirmation"

"Let’s wait to see if the news is true. I don’t think Fox is breaking it. It probably initiated with a wire. Let’s wait for the news conference before crucifying a GOP Senator."

quoting their dark lord RUSH:

"Rush just called it the ‘Martha Stewart’ indictment....LOL"

and throwing out Jefferson to take the heat of the GOP:

"Oh joy — the culture of corruption hue and cry again. At least the dems have William Jefferson (D-La)."

[malaise]

28. LOL

Their most senior Senator - their Senator from 1968, their longest serving Senator. Wake up Freepers.

[yardwork]

48. Oh, this is even better than I had hoped.

"It probably initiated with a wire." And we can't trust wires, now can we? Too newfangled a technology. Let's wait for the news conference....

All defending the guy who called the internet(s) "a series of tubes that get clogged sometimes."

You can't make this stuff up.

:rofl:

[Mnemosyne]

29. I can only say,

:rofl: laughing my ass off.

This may take awhile!

:rofl:

[pleah]

31. Where are all the freeper corpses? I expected to see some

heads explode over this one.


:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[malaise]

34. I thought all those red letters would bring a Freeper peeper

or two.

Heard today that McSame won't say anything - he's hoping this will go away - Bwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah! Mr Earmarks is as silent as Methuselah.
:rofl: :rofl:

[defendandprotect]

32. I think Freepers are vacationing at DU this summer . . . especially the Fundis

looking for conversions ---

:eyes:

[RedLetterRev]

37. What say we convert them all to toads and have done n/t

[malaise]

38. That would be

rapture. :rofl:

[RedLetterRev]

39. Do we get to keep all their stuff?

:rofl:

[LynneSin]

41. Wait..... Faux News said Ted Stevens was a DEMOCRAT......

[malaise]

42. As you predicted

This will continue until Democratic party sue them. This was no accident.

[Fearless]

56. Of course... try to pass the blame... you'll be left holding the check.

[yardwork]

44. Can't be. Republicans are the party of fiscal responsibility and family values!

He must be a liberal in disguise.

[malaise]

47. So says Faux Pas

:D

[MGKrebs]

54. It's funny they have appointed Kay Baily Huchinson to replace him

on one committee. She was indicted herself in 1993!

Nine Congresspeople have been charged with crimes since 2000. Seven of them are Repubs.

http://www.boston.com/news/nation/washington/articles/2008/07/29/members_of_congress_charged_with_crimes/

And if you go back thirty years, it's twelve total, nine Repubs.

See a pattern?

[malaise]

55. Only ten sitting Senators have been indicted in

US history. They're discussing this now on Hardball with Charlie Cook et al. Charlie Cook says Begich will win the seat. Go Dems!

[nikto]

57. PLEASE READ THIS IF YOU ARE A REPUBLICAN!!

Are you REALLY a Republican?

Good.

Now that I have your attention...

YOU SUCK, you vile,
slime-oozing fragment of putrescent excrement!!

Have a nice day, TRAITOR!
