If Begich had any character he would resign and run again in the special election. If he is truly the peoples choice he would be reelected.

As it stands his being elected in this matter smells of corruption because of the hanky panky by the justice department prosecutors.

Bullcrap!!! Ted Stevens made his bed, let him lay in it.

The Alaska Republicans and Sarah Palin have no Constitutional basis to demand a 'do-over'. First it was Norm Coleman in Minnesota, and now this crap. The Grand Old Party is turning into a bunch of whiners. If this is how they are going to behave for the next 12-18 months, the 2010 elections will put a fork in the GOP.

Oldcocksucker, Stevens never should have been indicted in the first place. The prosecutors withheld key evidence and their star witness contradicted his own earlier sworn statements.

I am curious to find out who the prosecutors are and what political bent they have.

I believe this whole prosecution was a political ploy to get Stevens out of office. The Tom Delay indictment is the same kind a bullshit.

Even though the U.S. Attorney for that district was a Republican appointed by the Bush Administration's Justice Dept.?

That's really stretching credulity.

They had an election. Steven's name was on the ballot. People didn't elect him. If they thought he was being railroaded they'd have reelected him. Maybe they just got tired of having a guy represent them who had for too many years (and was in his mid 80's). He wasn't fairing too well in the polls, even before his indictment.

Statements like #3 and many others by supposed 'Republicans' are why the party is in the tank. The lunatic fringe with the loudest megaphones (Hannity/Rush/Back/Savage) are sinking the GOP like the Titanic.

Waaaaaaa

So what you're saying is it's not their policy causing them to lose ground, politically? It's the fact that they're talking about their policy with conviction?

Gotcha.

Reading this site, I had the idea that you guys just didn't WHAT they were saying, not that they were saying it. I'll get a memo out right now so they can work on that permanent republican majority again!

Begish to Alaska GOP: Yeah, Right!

Right is right, and fair is fair. Time for a new election, just as there should be one in Minn. They're both contaminated.

Between these morons (Sarush is involved, so that may be redundent name calling) and Normyboy, ya gotta ask, Why do Rushpublicans hate democracy? Wanna guess how many GOPpers will be demanding Bjago gets HIS job back if he's found not guilty?

But wasn't this the prosecutorial plan Rove wanted to use against Democrats that caused the brouhaha about the fired Prosecutors? Another Bush Mission Accomplished.

But this may be a great way for Rushpublicans to win seats. Get their buddies to indict them, lose, them have a competent (Democrat) Prosecutor drop the charges and then claim they 'know' how the voters really would have voted, so they deserve the seat.

May be the ONLY way for them to win. Ted'll have his shot in 2014.

What a bunch of Mooseshit Palin is. Begich ran alongside Stevens and beat Him out fair and square. If She doesn't like it She can KMA that's Kiss a Moose's Ass not the usual Kiss My Ass.

Hey You know NorthGuy3 Ted Stevens could place campaign slogans upon individualy wrapped packages of Depends and hand them out at the local nursing home in 2014 if He runs again. He could call it the Diaper campaign.

"Right is right, and fair is fair. Time for a new election, just as there should be one in Minn. They're both contaminated."

Even the right wing lunatics posting this crap don't believe it but it is their duty to toe the party line. Some....not naming names....are doing it for profit. I got my suspicions about which ones and I think the ones I suspect know I know.

While under indictment for something he (apparently) didn't do? Lay the crackpipe down, Larry , get off your ass, make you're way to the door, open it, and breathe deeply of the Kansas air. Especially the oxygen portion of the air.

"Only one of us is full of shit!".

I think Ted should have a talk with his friends, Mucous and Dubya about the whole trial thing.

He should also thank Holder for this, but I can't see a Republican ever thinking a black man could get something right.

He gets a do over in five more years.

"Right is right, and fair is fair. Time for a new election, just as there should be one in Minn"

I must have missed the part in the Constitution where it says the person with the most votes only wins as long as American1st approves of the results.

OTOH it is heart-warming to see the GOPPers admit to something the libruls have been saying for years about Bush:

" the corrupt Department of Justice," the Alaska Republican Party's Web site states."

If Begich had any character he would resign and run again in the special election. If he is truly the peoples choice he would be reelected.

The people of Alaska have spoken... no criminals for Senate.

He got off on a technicality - he is not due anything more than any other criminal defendant in this country.

But I am sure that you see the 2000 Florida election as fair, even though the SCOTUS stopped the total recount and handed Bushling the election.

Please detail how the Minn election is contaminated.... other than your boy lost.

Dems pulled their shit to indict Stevens, now Republicans should find a way to remove Begich and have a do-over special election. That's why I love politics. Maybe they can find LBJ's old ballot box full of stuffed ballots for Stevens that were never counted.

I generally vote Republican... but these guys need to get a grip...

Begich is NOT going to resign..

That's nonsense.

"If there was ever a poster here who could be accused of being a shill for their party, it'd have to be you, Danni"

Oh, I support my party alright but I don't get paid for it but I suspect some righties here who post all the time do. The one's I suspect know I suspect and they never seem to comment on the few occasions I have actually accused them. I'm not going to accuse now because it is too easy for them to just lie about it. Their posts are generally full of dishonesty which I've caught them in several times too so I know they are basicly liars.

"Dems pulled their shit to indict Stevens, now Republicans should find a way to remove Begich and have a do-over special election."

Just how did Dems pull anything???
Bush appointed the prosecutors.
Take it up with them.
Stevens should be glad they purposely fucked up the case to let him go free.

Bird could do the same and call them a headcover, you asshat.

Gary Condit had Gloria Alred convict him for Sandra Levy's murder in the media. Only later did it come out she was wrong. He did not whine for a do over.

Suck it up Ted, there are no do overs in US elections.

Maybe Mossealoosky (R) could resign and give the Alaskans the crook they want.

Reality and the right have never gotten along. Now the right has simply moved to a new planet where reality never existed.

And, as for Sarush's support of her best buddy Ted, where the fuck was she during the trial? Certainly not slamming the corrupt Bush DOJ when she was running for VP...

If you want a do-over then do the trial of Gov. Don Siegelman over. That is the best example of the corruption that was the Bush/Gonzalez/Rove Justice Dept.

Yeah, they couldn't possibly be so involved in expressing their opinions that they come here daily and post frequently of their own volition, that maybe they are as obsessed as some of the libbies?

Of course if you're at work and on the clock then your employer is paying you to post here, unintentionally I'm sure.

Have you considered the fact that some people who smoke marijuana experience paranoia?

Stevens served long and did many good things for Alaska: but he is not perfect and God saw to it that Stevens don't retire in arrogance. Hence he was exposed and shaken. Ted Stevens should be grateful for this reprieve late in life and retire in quiet comfort.

But where will he spend eternity, I cannot tell. I tried to check his faith and discovered no clue. Maybe someone can fill in on this.

Ever say he didn't? Again, the whole right and reality thing....

The birthers? Wouldn't surprise me in the least. Actually, most of the right anymore.

As for Holder "choosing" the case, reality is that he inherited it from Mucous.

"But I am sure that you see the 2000 Florida election as fair, even though the SCOTUS stopped the total recount and handed Bushling the election."

Actually they said it was the Florida Sec State's call. Kat Harris stopped the recount.

It sucked to be sure, but I think the SCOTUS ruled correctly in that case based on the facts before them. The Florida GOP just had dotted all their legislative i's and crossed all their legislative t's months before the election (Kat Harris, as Florida legislator at the time, was involved in writing the legislation that gave the sec state the authority she later used). Lucky coincidence for them I guess.

You're a pathetic loser. Parsing and deflecting don't work.

Your hero bowed to the Saudi King. If it was bad for Bush to do it, it's bad for Obama to do it. Admit your defeat and move on, speedbag.

Let this be a lesson to you. Never go off of Stewarts script. If you do, simply steal somebody else's material, as you usually do.

Take it easy Takitez, St Peter has not died and left you in charge of the pearly gates.

Uh NO you are like....you know...WRONG

apparently stevens did nothing wrong unless you also want to tell OJ and others who were found innocent that mistakes were made and so thier verdict was also overturned.
once again, liberals want something both ways.

and your comments about coleman and the clown are almost too sllly to even comment on

EXCEPT that I heard coleman this morning on fox and friends and he said

"If he wins, we dont need more anger in washington. If AFTER ALL THE VOTES are counted, the people elect him in, then thats thier right but Im confident that when ALL the votes are counted we will win"

and what is the height of frankens integrity

"rush limbough is a big fat idiot."

Anyone else actually read the article? It never says he was innocent of all charges. Its a good bet he's still guilty on some charges. It only states the information not provided to the defense was helpful to the defense of Stevens.

What I really love is how the conservatives cry foul when a criminal defendant is acquitted on a technicality. But when its one of their own, the technicality is a fundamental Constitutional right.

and so if you think its hypocricy then you will agree that he should have another chance at the senate seat because you know good and well that he would have won without this 'tainted' charges.

again....if the hypocricy is so bad, then you agree with the idea, then right??

and here may be a better example

so if it were shown that the fbi misbehaved in the blogjvich case..
should he get his governors job back?

Ted Stevens is 85-years old and has been in Congress since 1968. In THAT regard, it was time for him to go. HOWEVER, the method used to get him out of office STINKS. I know Danni will be along soon to defend the DEMOCRAT Federal prosecutor. The timing of all this, of course, had nothing to do with the election, I'm sure. Not with this being the most honest, most transparent administration in the history of the U.S.

If it was bad for Bush to do it, it's bad for Obama to do it.

It was. So far, however, Obama has resisted turning the US military into mercenaries to protect the saudi royals and their gold toilets, unlike the Bush family.

But, if you remember (and that's a big if), the whole issue started with you righties wetting your pants over the supposed insult the Obama's delivered to the Queen by not prostrating themselves on the floor.

And again,like the supposed IPOD insult,with nothing real to complain about, making shit up is all you've got left.

and to answer you

you know its just getting a little old to see the SMARTEST FUCKERS ON THE PLANET AND BEYOND to make one gaffe after another

but the bottom line for me....its nothing to get worked up over....that stuff is one reason why washington was so great..

Did Obama give Brown DVD's that didn't work? Did Obama try to walk in a window at the white house? Does he stutter and over-use "uhs" and "ums"? Did he make fun of the Special Olympians?

this just shows the arrogance of both of them.

and so how did THIS THREAD get into this area

oh yeah...northguy took us there.

"this just shows the arrogance of both of them."

First, just because you didn't see her curtsey doesn't mean she didn't.
Second, it would be the Queen who is arrogant expecting anyone to curtsy. She's just a woman, royalty is nonsense.

One point of protocol though that Obama does wrong (at least according to my Dad who was a 30 year Navy man) is when he salutes back to military people who salute him. MOst presidents have done the same thing. My Dad always said that the President is a civillian and shouldn't return the salutes which are for his office not him.

Second, it would be the Queen who is arrogant expecting anyone to curtsy. She's just a woman, royalty is nonsense.

but its not up to you..or me

and your dad has a point but it has always been done and he is commander in chief.
and he looks like he can at least do it properly or at least the way I have seen it done properly.

AGAIN.....its called manners

The President of the United States should bow to no one. Just like the American flag should never be flown lower than any other national flag. That's why I didn't like it when he apparently bowed to the Saudi King.

fuck that old fraud and fuck his retrograde supporters.

"Figures you'd be against elections."

Right, Yav. Figures you would be FOR proscutorial misconduct and tainted elections if your guy benefits. Now tell me....do you SERIOUSLY believe Stevens would have lost the election, IN ALASKA. As I said before, I feel no terrible loss with his being gone, it was time, but not like this. I'm sure you'd fill your pants if the other party did something like this to Byrd too. He should have been gone as well...no?

"I'm sure you'd fill your pants if the other party did something like this to Byrd too."

Except that it wasn't "the other party." "The other party", namely Holder, ordered the charges to be dropped.

THREE guesses who it is and the first two dont count...

"and there is only one state in the union that is able to fly thier flag on equal to the us flag"

Not surprised that Texans think that but it is still bull shit.

"4. When flags of States, cities, or localities, or pennants of societies are flown on the same halyard with the flag of the United States, the latter should always be at the peak. When the flags are flown from adjacent staffs, the flag of the United States should be hoisted first and lowered last. No such flag or pennant may be placed above the flag of the United States or to the right of the flag of the United States (the viewer's left). When the flag is half-masted, both flags are half-masted, with the US flag at the mid-point and the other flag below."

"A Bush appointee Prosecutor,..."

Are you saying the prosecutor was NOT a democrat? The statement I made was accurate.

its in the agreement between sam houston and the us president

of course maybe the feds broke THAT agreement as well.

The fact is Obama, McCain and Palin were all calling for him to resign. It would be awful naive to think he didn't lose a razor thin race because of the charges. Guilty or not.

I posted long ago he was innocent. The man has millions of dollars and doesn't need the so called favors. I thought it would come out his son was who should have been indicted. For whatever it is worth.

First--Begich didn't go anything wrong here.

You can argue that he didn't or wouldn't have won fair and square but for the trial he lost due to the prosecutors misconduct.

That is not a reason to overturn an election.

Stevens mistake was going for a speedy trial before the election.

He had maintained his innocents from day one.

As it turns out--he was right!

As he was cleared of all charges by Holder.

And I love how some believe that the public is supposed to know that someone is being railroaded when the law went after this guy with false statements and lies.

BTW--this will make at least two Dem Senators tainted--Begich and Burris. If Franken (let me get those ballots out of the back seat) wins that will be a third.

Again, listen this doesn't mean that Sen. Stevens was innocent, all it means was that the Bush Administrations Justice Department violated the right of a sitting United States Senator.

Outnumbered and surrounded, 200 brave men stood their ground against Santa Anna's Army for 13 days.

Travis drew a line in the ground and said that any man willing to stay and fight for Texas should cross over the line. All, but one did.

Today, once again, the line has been drawn. You have a choice to cross over and defend Texas from unfair taxation, or accept the huge tax burden that accompanies the Liberal Democrat's outrageous spending plan.

Not to suggest that there was any sort of Machiavellian intent in all of this, but remember those 'prosecutors' worked for Bush's Justice Department and it now seems rather convenient that Stevens is suddenly the beneficiary of 'procuratorial incompetence' particularly when it's Obama's AG who is now left to 'clean up' the mess.

But since you brought up the idea that this was perhaps a 'political prosecution', what about the case of Ex-Alabama Governor Don Siegelman? That one looks like it goes all the way back to the office of Karl Rove, Bush's brain.

Who's making shit up dummy? Did he or did he not bow? Did he or did he not give the queen an ipod (that included his speeches)? Did Michele break protocol and touch the queen? Did Obama give Brown DVD's that didn't work? Did Obama try to walk in a window at the white house? Does he stutter and over-use "uhs" and "ums"? Did he make fun of the Special Olympians?
I don't think any of them are a big deal, but you limpwrists thought gaffes like those were hilarious prior to 1/21/09. Butch up.

Try again. Try harder.

Why would some dope say this, I am a republican and that is stupid. Stevens should never have put himself in the position to even be indicted, He should lose for that. All pols are crooks after a while. Look at Dodd, shame is Conn will prbably relect him. And again, all of us will get screwed

Does anyone else picture Celisary as some sort of deranged, schizophrenic monster who twitches, bites his tongue and has one eye bugging out while he types?

Yeah? And what was he wrong about dummy? Be specific.

"JOE"..."101CLAIRBORNE"...O.K. you mental fuck ups tell me where did my response go wrong, look it up again #84 an tell me what was not factual..... Go ahead make it up you usually do anyway, you fucks have no time for Facts....By the way I'm quite good looking ask your wives or girl friends or boy friends. Insults an the low road is the path of the Conservative Right in this Country, but you will never win because this OUR COUNTRY!!!!!!!

Stevens Deserves a Do-Over

Nonsense. There have been many people that have been wrongly convicted and served time; decades in some cases. No one seriously discussed giving them a do over. They were given money and told to make a new life for themselves. Stevens needs to get busy making a new life for himself.

If Stevens really wanted to do something meaningful, he could become an advocate for improvements in the judicial system to prevent people from being wrongly convicted.

But then he might discover that innocent people have actually been sent to death row, and some have even been executed, and that could cause his 'conservative' head to explode.

OCU

San--check it out on the Cleared vs. dropped.

There is very little difference acutally.

Imagine that. A Republican might get elected in a district with over 70,000 more registered Republicans than Democrats!

Keep telling yourself that when the district went for Obama.

You know all those independents and repubs crossing over to vote....

FUCK all of you sniveling whiners.

A 'Do Over'?

Fat chance. Deal with it.

Right is right, and fair is fair. Time for a new election, just as there should be one in Minn. They're both contaminated.

This is so funny coming from the same crowd that chanted 'Sore-Loserman' when Al Gore wanted a simple recount of several counties in a the Presidential race.

Funny shit indeed.

Suck it up and wipe those tears.

Yes, when the one candidate wants to cherry pick the counties to recount (and the ones Gore wanted just happened to be democrat. What a coincidence!) yes, it is very funny.

If Gore had genuously called for a recount of the whole state, yes, I could see the hypocrisy.

No strawman at all, dipshit. You mentioned me on a thread I hadn't posted on. Sorry you can't get me out of your mind.

My strawman comment was obviously directed to commonsense since I quoted him, not you.

Get over yourself, null. Not every post I put up is about you as much as you wish they were and as much as you wish I can't get you out of my mind.

What an egomaniac! sheesh!

I have a feeling this could head to the Supreme Court. Whether or not you think he should have lost the election, the fact is dip in the polls or not he was still an incumbent which has it's own momentum on election day. The fact is that nobody with more than an IQ over 30 thinks the charges had little or no impact on the election.

The election was tainted. He could very well challenge the validity of the election and claim "election tampering" since the withheld information wasn't just kept from him, but it was also kept from the VOTERS. It doesn't matter who did the tampering, or why. What matters is that it WAS tampered with and may have very well cost him the election.

I don't know whether he would win or not... but I think he has a case.
