breaking...ted stevens indicted on criminal charges

WASHINGTON - Sen. Ted Stevens, the longest-serving Republican senator and a figure in Alaska politics since before statehood, has been indicted on seven counts of making false statements.

Stevens, 86, has been dogged by a federal investigation into whether he pushed for fishing legislation that also benefited his son, an Alaska lobbyist. Authorities have also scrutinized his ties to a corrupt oil contractor who paid employees to renovate the senator's home.

I saw a thread on this over at DU and FOX broke it and neglected to point out his party affiliation. That's fair and balanced for you

That's because the O'Rielly ambush field "reporter" would come back with the following interview:

"Are you a democrat in secret?"

"NO!!"

Oil contractors paid for his home remoldeling? Put the guy in Prison...maybe then these members of Congress will stop ruining this country by selling us out for an updated kitchen.


What happened to not taking handouts? Lift yourself up by your bootstraps?

I don't care if they are dems or repukes...put them in prison

ARGHHH this crap makes me so mad
