Ted "tubes" Stevens is the "secret hold" guy


TPM Muckraker

Of course he is - who else but the "go to guy" for bridges to nowhere and airliners with fish painted on the side of them would have the stones to do something like this?

Seriously, it takes a pair, not just an ordinary pair, but a frigging shot peened, case hardened, Titanium pair.

I don't care if it costs the republicans a seat in the senate - Ted Steven has GOT TO GO. This guy is a blight, a remora, a leech, a vile unrepentent squanderer of taxpayer dollars the likes of which hasn't been seen in quite some time.

Let me retract some of that, I'm afraid I've unfairly disrespected remoras and leeches, and perhaps even blights (the jury is still out on that one).

[update]
Byrd *and* Stevens were the culprit(s)
These guys are the "dynamic duo" of pork in the US senate. Byrd, of course, LIED about it initially then backtracked. Stevens just dithered until the field was getting narrowed down considerably before coming clean.
