Same shit, different day

The U.S. Justice Department has decided to drop all charges against former rethug Senator Ted Stevens.

Indicted felon Stevens was convicted in October of seven counts of being a scumbag, lying on a Senate disclosure form to conceal $250,000 in gifts and home renovations from an oil industry executive and other friends. Allegations of prosecutorial misconduct by the former Bush "Justice" Dept have delayed his sentencing. Duh.

A spokesman for U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder said he has decided to spare the American taxpayers by not continuing the case, adding that the age of Stevens, 85, means that hopefully the crooked old fuck will be dead soon anyway.

Imagine that....misconduct by the Bush Justice Department....which was more then likely intentional.

I wonder if this was a trade-off to keep someone else from the same fate.

Now Stevens will sue for his Senate seat to be returned. This doesn't mean he wasn't crooked (he was), it just means the Bush DOJ screwed it up, probably on purpose so they could get him acquitted and save the R seat.

Maybe, just maybe this little piggy was gonna start squealing? These gutless fucks always roll over on their "friends" to save their own asses.
