10. It's not like a truck that you just dump money on
It's a series of tubes. And if you don't understand those tubes can be filled and if they are filled, when you put your money in, it gets in line and it's going to be delayed by anyone that puts into that tube enormous amounts of material, enormous amounts of material.

Senator Stevens would like to prioritize your email in that case.

9. I'm guessing its tied to big oil
you'd think at his age and time in the senate he'd be able to resist being a crook... unless he always had been and is just now getting caught.

http://www.adn.com/news/politics/fbi/story/9179115p-9095789c.html

"Federal investigators and a federal grand jury looking into public corruption in Alaska have been asking questions about a 2000 remodeling project that occurred at Stevens' home, particularly the involvment of the oil field services firm Veco."

Hmm...but will there be more to it than that?

35. And they never report the good news...
which in this case would be that, although Stevens' house is being dismantled in the vain search for those broadband tubes, nobody's searching my place -- at least for now.

17. Thanks for the info. Saw it here first. I'll bet he knew this was coming a few weeks ago.
No doubt he moved anything he wouldn't want them to see long ago.

26. Yes it is!
Wouldn't be great if over time all the corrupt politicians were caught for their wrong doings. Of course they would have to hire everyday citizens to be Representatives because most would be in jail!

22. Excellent news for us.
A recent online poll here showed that 65% of the respondents would vote AGAINST Don Young and Ted Stevens if the investigations are still ongoing by the next election. Several prominent dems are considering runs against both. 2008 may be the year that Alaska flips.

32. Begich's plane
Edited on Mon Jul-30-07 09:37 PM by Blue_In_AK
has actually been stashed in Don Young's Fort Yukon "home" all these years.



Don Young is the one who benefited from Nick Begich's death, not Ted Stevens.

30. Man, His Career's Really Goin Down The Tubes.
But it took long enough. Unfortunately, those pesky career tubes were already clogged with so many other republican scandals. But alas, Ted, finally the tubes have cleared for you! Down ya go!

31. Hey Ted, was this an even worse day than drilling in the ANWR getting rejected,
or is that still the worst day of your apeshit crazy life?

Too bad ya won't have Scoots for a cell mate.
