Note, they do not identify party affiliation....

1. Has Faux mis-identified him as Democrat yet?

:eyes:

[WeDidIt]

3. Not yet, of course they don't identify him as a Republican, either.

6. Good!

7. This won't help Stevens in his election in Alaska where he is already running behind.

[Blue_In_AK]

13. But this will indeed doom him.

He should have just resigned earlier and saved what was left of his reputation. I guess Anchorage will have to rename its airport.

republicans naming things after themselves. aren't you supposed to be dead first?

16. Short and to the point with a photo that sure suits him

Loved this quote: "....longest-serving Republican in the U.S. Senate and one of the chamber's most powerful members..."

The photo looks like he's doing a slow burn.

High horses have slippery saddles, Ted. :rofl:

maybe to jail.

[rhombus]

19. Stick him on an ice floe and push him out to sea.

With global warming, it shouldn't take long for that ice to melt.

20. I just heard this announcement on the radio! I'm CHEERING!

That arrogant old geezer deserves everything he gets charged with and probably MORE!

All I can see right now is him ranting andf raving in the Senate and threatening everyone if they don't authorize the $$ for his damn bridge!

[corkhead]

23. Pretty soon he'll need an earmark for a "Bridge to Quentin"

25. The internet tubes are burning up!
