No Comment on Ted Stevens?


Recommended Posts

I've been so busy trying to figure out why the Obama administration is freeing and embracing illegal immigrants that I kind of ignored the whole Stevens thing.

 

This just in...illegals set free, given work permits because...y'know...the immigrant advocates have a big voice, and as we all know, problem is only with the employer, not the illegals.

 

Welcome to World Obama. The poor illegals need the help. And you have to figure by the time Acorn gets done with these fine, upstanding "Americans," there's another 28 votes for the new leader.

 

Bravo, Chairman Maobama. You're making all the unemployed people in this world feel SO much better about the future.

 

But hey...let's talk about Stevens because it'll be a few hours before we find out what Michelle is wearing for breakfast tomorrow.

"Railroaded" by the Bushistas, cleared by the Democrats. How sweet it is. The system works.
Remarkable. You were twittering with delight when he was convicted. Now Ted Stevens is the new Abbe Hoffman of the far left? His lawyers got him off, not some new insight/morality in Washington. And why would Bush want to hang a Republican senator? So a Democrat could take his place? Go back to the doggy park and bark Obama.

Stevens was convicted of seven felony counts of lying on Senate financial disclosure forms to conceal hundreds of thousands of dollars in gifts and home renovations from a wealthy oil contractor.

 

The Justice Department admitted it never turned over notes from an interview with the oil contractor, who estimated the value of the renovation work as far less than he testified at trial.

 

Stevens is the King of Pork Barrel Funding ...

 

Let's be clear about one thing, although Stevens is now "innocent" in the eyes of the law, there is no reason to believe that he didn't, in fact, receive tens of thousands of dollars in undisclosed gifts from Alaska tycoon Bill Allen.

 

The disclosure that prosecutors had withheld notes from an interview with Allen in which the latter had estimated the value of the goods he'd given Stevens at $80,000 rather than the approximately $250,000 prosecutors had claimed.

 

If it were an Average Joe, do you think thye'd get off that easy? NO way!

Fascists or Socialists? Pick one and stick with it.

 

They were socialists, but with the firing of the GM Exec and possible othre ones, they are turning into Fascists.

Turns out he was wrongly convicted as evidence was withheld ... by the Bush government.

 

He's all yours. I think he's a scummy slimeball but he's an old guy, and he's gone now. Enjoy him.

 

And of course he can now kiss and make up with the governor of the state he used to represent, who in 2008 called on him to resign whether or not he was convicted, and is now frantically backpeddling.

 

How's that ASH up there?

Wrongly convicted? NO he wasn't. The error was in the total amount he received.

 

$80,000 rather than the approximately $250,000 prosecutors had claimed.
