Yeah, long time no post, I know, but this was too good to pass up. Your favorite luddite and mine was indicted on several charges relating to the raid of his
ubermansion home in Alaska a while back.
Republican Sen. Ted Stevens of Alaska was indicted Tuesday on charges that he lied about receiving gifts worth more than $250,000 from an Alaska-based energy company on whose behalf he intervened in Washington.
The indictment, returned Tuesday by a federal grand jury in Washington, says the veteran lawmaker "schemed to conceal" the fact that Veco paid for hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of work on his home.
The indictment follows a wide-ranging investigation into ties between the company and lawmakers in Alaska.
So I think maybe we'd better let the Tale of Sir Ted rest. He's gonna need his rest, it would seem.
