Couldn’t Have Happened to a Nicer Guy

So, Sarah Palin’s buddy, Ted Stevens, is guilty on all seven counts.

This man – the most senior Republican in the Senate – is a champion of unnecessary earmarks, a defender of environmental criminals, and an icon of political corruption. He delivered the dollars to Sarah Palin for the "Bridge to Nowhere" even without the earmark for the project.

I’m glad they finally got something to stick to this guy who must have Teflon sewn into his Incredible Hulk ties.

However, the guy’s still seeking reelection in Alaska. His opponent, Mark Begich, may have gotten a boost out of this conviction, but Uncle Ted has spread a lot of pork around his home state.
