Sen. Ted Steven Vows To Block Ethics Bill
This is rich; one day after Stevens house gets raided during an investigation for public corruption, he vows to block the House ethics bill. I don’t think Stevens would know ethics if it bit him in the ass.
Republican Sen. Ted Stevens, whose home back in Alaska was raided by federal investigators Monday in a wide-ranging corruption investigation, has threatened to place a hold on the Democratic-drafted ethics legislation just passed by the House and expected on the Senate floor by week’s end.
The senator told a closed session of fellow Republicans today, including Vice President Dick Cheney, that he was upset that the measure would interfere with his travel to and from Alaska – and vowed to block it.

No, he doesn’t know ethics and maybe he is about to learn!

One could only hope. Maybe they should name his bridge to nowhere, the bridge to Leavenworth.

I was going to say that this whiny-tit needs to take a long walk on a short bridge to nowhere.
Honestly, I just don’t understand why the House and Senate do not invoke their own rules to remove members.

As much as hey bitch about each other, it’s a “private club” that protects its own.

I would like to see a whole bunch of these “club members” in orange jumpsuits and on their way to the pen…
