Ted Stevens declares innocence

Never KNOWINGLY submitted a false disclosure form. That pretty much says it all, doesn't it? I'd say he would have been better off to say nothing at all.

Oh, by the way, does this mean that somebody lied on his behalf and then forgot to tell him about it? For what purpose? That's like Monica Goodling saying she vetted those US attorneys on their political beliefs just because she felt like it.

And if you believe that, somewhere there's a bridge to nowhere that I'd like to sell you.

His behavior is shameful. We have Karl Rove politics to thank for this. The news media and public is always so glad to have news like Rev. Wright and silliness to grab our attention, that we overlook how we are being messed around with the President and his cronies. Our country has never been in such a mess since the great depression! Shame on these people. Let's get him out of office.

Well, this frees him up to go campaign for McSame.

Geez, he served in WWII? Thanks for your service, but maybe you should've retired a long time ago?
[That goes for some others, too. =) ]

Or maybe Alaska will finally get the word that Repubs are largely hypocritical and often corrupt?

Alaskans for Obama!
Vets too!

Since it is now a FACT that the political integrity of the Justice Dept has been compromised by the GOP and Bush's Buddies, one can only assume Stevens must be GUILTY. If the 'Just-us' Dept was forced to file charges against a Republican, then is stands to reason the proof must be so overwhelming that a lack of action by the DOJ would, itself, be CRIMINAL. I know the DOJ isn't doing there jobs, but they don't want to loose those jobs, regardless. So, I guess they'll just HAVE TO uphold the law.

Innocent until proven...Republican!

McSame is flopping like a fish out of water. I gleefully shed my 30 year Republican past like snake skin and join the hopeful. We need to take back our country from these slimballs who want to destroy our way of life by giving it to foreigners. I feel slimy knowing that I considered myself one of them. I hope the Good Lord forgives me my past transgressions and gives me credit for what I'm about to write:

God Bless America and God Bless President Barack Obama in 2009.

What has serving in WWII got to do with corrunption charges???

McCain and the like keep flashing service as an excuse for everything.

I recall that Duke Cunningham flashed his service creed as well before going to jail.

As he speaks like Pinochio his nose grew ten feet. I am sure McCain can name him a Senior Adivisor on economic matters pertaining to ear marks since he is the country's foremost specialist in that area.

Sounds like McCain to me...I served in the armed services...so I know everything, I can do anything and get away with it. I am so tired of this veteran excuse for being dumb.

No wonder McCain claims to know everything and to know everybody...the truth is...they are both dumb and not fit for office.

The other senator that now sits in jail made the nearly exact claims. But I am willing to let the investigation and hearings take their course. But I am not going to hold my breath.
