There was also a recall movement to recall the governor, however establishment Republicans in the state, at least within my county party, actively worked to stop it believing it would hurt their chances to win the open seat election this year. I am really getting weary of the establishment's demand for the status quo.<br /><br />I also think there was something criminal in what happened in the last Alaskan race.

Think about that. They saw evidence that showed that Stevens didn't commit a crime, but decided to go after him anyway - and THAT is the real story of this affair.<br /><br />They asserted that Senator Stevens had renovations done on his home at the expense of oil producers. Senator Stevens provided documentation which showed that he had reimbursed them in the amount of what was considered "Fair Market" value. Early on into the investigation, a prosecution witness told them that Stevens was never sent a bill, despite his repeated requests for one. That tidbit was never made available to Steven's defense and subsequently, jurors were never made aware of his testimony. All throughout the trial, Stevens and his attorneys kept insisting that they be allowed to pursue certain avenues of defense, but were denied. They finally succeeded in getting the judge to order the prosecution to reveal certain information - information that they subsequently kept refusing to give. Once they handed it over out of fear of being held in contempt of court, Stevens contention that the prosecution was holding out on the court turned out to be spot on.<br /><br />Some have suggested that Stevens was intentionally set up for a mistrial by "The 'BUSH' Justice Department", except they overlook two very salient points: <br /><br />1) Both Bill Welch and Brenda Morris, the lead prosecutors in this case - are both lifelong democrats. <br /><br />2) Both have been in career positions at the Justice Department since the 90's, before President Bush was ever elected. <br /><br />This entire fiasco was conducted because democrats - salivating over the thought of a filibuster-proof majority - needed to attack Stevens through the courts to help out their democrat candidate in a very close election. Even after conviction, Steven lost only by a few thousand votes.<br /><br />So...all things being equal, Ted Stevens would never have been brought up on charges, let alone indicted - if he were a democrat Senator, because these career democrat prosecutors would never have engaged in such criminal malfeasance otherwise.Scope Creephttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13030424352869840248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4492737693421611547.post-27987506846647490262010-03-30T16:14:22.423-06:002010-03-30T16:14:22.423-06:00The Southern Avenger Rocks.
