FBI investigates Sen. Stevens’ fishing bills.
The federal investigation into Sen. Ted Stevens’ (R-AK) potentially corrupt relationship to an Alaskan oil company has expanded to include his ties to the fishing industry. Investigators issued “subpoenas throughout the industry last year” asking whether Stevens “pushed seafood legislation that benefited” his son Ben, who is a state lobbyist and politician. One fisherman provided the FBI with a taped conversation indicating that Ben Stevens told a client, “I’ll get Dad to fund you guys, too.”

When you go out of your way to piss people off you shouldn’t be surprised if they don’t want to be your pal.

October 30th, 2007 at 9:24 pmI cant help it if your an idiot
October 30th, 2007 at 9:25 pmI was helping the trolls get the Democrat stuff out of the way. Now back on topic.
Alaska is dumb enough to keep electing this moron, Sen. Ted “Tubes” Stevens.

3rd comment in a row that doesn’t make any sense.
You seem to be having a bad day.

Comment by ForTruth — October 30, 2007 @ 9:25 pm
S’okay. Just curious. Brandy seems to have a problem w/ something here, though. But the comments are so irrational, it’s hard to say what.
October 30th, 2007 at 9:27 pmTake a deep breath, place your finger from your but in your mouth, you can do it. It’ll make you feel better.
October 30th, 2007 at 9:27 pmIt’ll make you feel better.

Who are you talking to? Yourself?
October 30th, 2007 at 9:27 pmJust you, hope you feel better
October 30th, 2007 at 9:28 pmWhat on earth are you talking about? You’ve haven’t said anything here that makes the least bit of sense.
October 30th, 2007 at 9:29 pmreally? your that stupid?
October 30th, 2007 at 9:29 pmWhat??? you seem determined to insult someone, but over what?
NONE of your comments have any point. What are you trying to say?
October 30th, 2007 at 9:30 pmObviously, brandy’s contributions here indicate that Troll Central has started plumbing the depths of the pre-teen workforce in order to fill out its ranks.
Sad, very sad.
October 30th, 2007 at 9:34 pmGo back look at the posts, or are you so stupid you dont know how?
October 30th, 2007 at 9:35 pmI wont even answer 29, kinda childish.

Since you were gone,
Bush is STILL an AWOL coward TRAITOR to the USA who needs to be WATERBOARDED at Gitmo until he DROPS DEAD and goes to hell.
Same TREASONOUS little AWOL coward as before you said:

October 30th, 2007 at 9:43 pmAgreed. Put “bwandy” on Jake’s “ignore list”.
Back on TOPIC,
Stevens is a CRIMNAL selling influence like Tom Delay and Abramoff.
And Bush is a COXUCKER punk TRAITOR to the USA…
Sincerely,
NRA Gun Nutes
October 30th, 2007 at 9:43 pmI think Sen. Stevens’ son would most certianly roll around Alaska, in his sweet ride, acting like his daddy can buy anyone or anything.

Seems to be lashing out indiscrimately, but at what, or who???
It’s somehow supposed to hurt or be intimidating? How???
October 30th, 2007 at 9:47 pmOh but contrare my dear, all you had to do was look back.

Comment by Zooey — October 30, 2007 @ 9:51 pm
Brandy here seems to be in a bit of a snark over something, but it’s hard to say what. Just one insult after another, but none of it makes any sense. It’s actually kind of entertaining watching this person go…
BOOGA… BOOGA… BOOGA… but what?
Is this supposed to be painful? Intimidating? What?
It’s just gibberish.
October 30th, 2007 at 9:53 pmoh, a sideliner, you may want to relook that
October 30th, 2007 at 9:54 pmSee??? Nothing… just incoherent nonsense.

October 30th, 2007 at 9:57 pmYou all smell like a bunch of freaks to me.
On a lighter note (and on topic to boot), it’s time once again for the right to dust off the “criminalization of politics†talk speak routine.
October 30th, 2007 at 9:57 pmmore sideline help, apparently you need it
October 30th, 2007 at 9:58 pmAgain, just petty insults and nonsense.
What do you think you’re talking about???
You haven’t made one worthwhile, rational comment since showing up. You seem to think your words hurt, and you’re somehow intimidating.
What???
October 30th, 2007 at 9:58 pmDo you think your tax dollars should go to benefit the son of the man that used your tax dollars for a bridge, now a fishing pier apparently, to nowhere?
October 30th, 2007 at 9:58 pmThe investigation is floundering.
Comment by TCDon
There just doing it for the Halibut.
October 30th, 2007 at 9:59 pmI gotta go, folks. I was hoping poor brandy actually had some sort of “point” to make, but after this much time, clearly all brandy has is meaningless insults.
Very strange.

TRAITORS like Bush, especially in a time of “war” deserve to be TORTURED, er, waterboarded, until they DROP DEAD.

I’ll take your word for it. It sounds familiar, whoever it is.
What a sad, pitiful life it must lead, that the best thing it has to do this time of night is to troll a website and try to confuse the commenters with gibberish.
Ah well, it’s better than doing drugs, I suppose.
October 30th, 2007 at 10:09 pmPoor Stevens, first the ‘tubes’ embarrassment, now his whole world of corrupt kickbacks is crashing around his ears!

October 30th, 2007 at 10:26 pmZooey, crabs are crustaceans, spiders arachnids. Yes both are arthropods but still let’s not interupt Candyce and Brandy.

October 30th, 2007 at 10:28 pmI thought the spiders would enhance the “discussion.” :D
October 30th, 2007 at 10:29 pmI was just throwing out some chum. Sorry, guys. :P
October 30th, 2007 at 10:29 pmZooey, no they are so good, drawn butter, cant resist them
October 30th, 2007 at 10:30 pmHopefully the FBI will be able to maintain their focus on this case better then this discussion has. Ignore the fools, they only divert attention and have nothing legitimate to say on this, or any subject. All they need to know is which side is GWB on and that’s where they’ll follow, broken English & all. Stevens is a crook, plain and simple. The FBI is hardly a wing of the Dems. I look forward to the Stevens clan moaning after they’re jailed.

October 30th, 2007 at 10:37 pmThat’s ok, I feel included as Rep. Rick Renzi (R)AZ was also on the same list of most corrupt, as Teddy Stevens.

Republicans are natural born liars and thieves (and in the case of ‘brandy’, stupid little children). Why wouldn’t Stevens be yet another GOP crook that got caught?
And what’s the GOP (brandy) response? Flinging sh!!!t about public schools, while not being able to spell you’re, poor little ‘tard!

October 30th, 2007 at 10:44 pmOh Jebus, I think we got us a female Ben Ferguson, one of those kids whose homeschooling consisted of being shuttled around in an astrovan listening to Lush Rimjob and knows everything about the world as it zipped by his saliva speckled phhhhttt window.

Ah, michael, your alive? Don’t you mean you’re alive?
Ah, the IRONY of the ignorant wingnut that thinks he’s smart enough to take on yet another persona and not be recognized.
Poor michael, you poor little ‘tard!

Yep, it’s michael alright.
October 30th, 2007 at 10:45 pmIf it’s Michael, a more apt disquise would be Pink Lady, or some other girly drink…

You didn’t get the reference? Poor little michael is obsessed with wine, and brandy is a kind of wine. It’s totally michael, or one of his ‘personalities’. Sounds like he’s off his meds.
October 30th, 2007 at 10:49 pmGood night folks, you cant take it can you.

Yep, you’re definitely michael, poor disturbed little ‘tard!
October 30th, 2007 at 10:50 pmAnd there’s a girl in this harbor town
October 30th, 2007 at 10:50 pmAnd she works layin’ whiskey down
Thank goodness brandy is gone. My hand can stop twitching for the red pen.
October 30th, 2007 at 10:51 pm“You didn’t get the reference? ”
Brandy isn’t really a fru-fru drink, like a Pink lady or Grasshopper, that’s why it’s not as apt.
October 30th, 2007 at 10:51 pmTCDon, if you are an attorney I feel sorry for your assistant.

Know this one?
Pour me another glass of that sweet burgundy.
October 30th, 2007 at 10:56 pmMaybe that will help to ease the pain
Burgundy I guess you’re my only friend.
Sweet Burgundy.
In the interest of helping Zooey with that twitching problem and to carry on the proud tradition here at TP, let me point out that there would be a comma immediately preceding the quotation in your example, TCDon.
let me point out that the correct grammar would be, “If you are eating…”
Forgive me, of course.

October 30th, 2007 at 11:00 pmNo! Searching now. Wanna Save me time/effort. Seems vaguely familiar
Thank you, Candyce. ;)
October 30th, 2007 at 11:01 pmIn the proud tradition of TP posters who like to correct the grammar of those with whom they disagree, let me point out that the correct grammar would be “If you are eating…..â€
But, forgive me if you don’t like getting schooled.
Comment by TCDon — October 30, 2007 @ 10:53 pm
Well if you would school your fellow republicans that criticize the education of others without knowing the difference between your and you’re then your hypocrisy in ’schooling’ wouldn’t be so misplaced. Then again, the wingnut values are always misplaced, aren’t they?
Tell me, how many clients did you cheat today, with billing then fraudulently?
October 30th, 2007 at 11:02 pmThat would be “assistants†Zooey, but don’t feel sorry for them. I pamper them with good pay, good work conditions, and good PRIVATE health insurance for which I pay. We even have a gym for them to work their “mussels.â€
Comment by TCDon — October 30, 2007 @ 11:00 pm
And you bill the clients your rate for their work, cheating both sides of the equation. Yeah, those are ‘great’ conditions!
October 30th, 2007 at 11:03 pmS’ok, TCDon. Don’t mean to get on my high perch over grammar and spelling, slinging barbs. All in fun.
October 30th, 2007 at 11:05 pmThen what the hell are you doing hanging out here, TCDon? Why aren’t you out living the “good life?”
No one wants to be around you?
October 30th, 2007 at 11:07 pmThank you Candyce. You are one whale of a helper.
Comment by TCDon — October 30, 2007 @ 11:02 pm
She sure is! I still find it hysterical that a supposed attorney that can’t spell denier not only corrects grammar of others, but does so incorrectly!!!! Good thing you have those assistants that are competent, otherwise you’d be screwed!!!!
October 30th, 2007 at 11:07 pmStevens will lose that grin once he’s in the jumpsuit. It’s only a matter of time. Those Republicans sure do have a solid lock on Congressional corruption and perversion. They seem to be competing with priests…
October 30th, 2007 at 11:07 pmThat accusation really smelt RHF.
Comment by TCDon — October 30, 2007 @ 11:05 pm
Yeah, it smelled of the truth! That’s why it hurt you! Crook!
October 30th, 2007 at 11:08 pmTCDon is the kind of attorney whose assistant has to go over every single document with a fine-toothed comb to correct all his moronic errors. If she misses one and the Judge asks about it, old TCDon will blame the assistant — even though it’s HIS responsibility.

Comment by Zooey — October 30, 2007 @ 11:10 pm
Worse, he’s the kind of attorney that uses the work of others, and puts his name on it as the final ‘review’ step! He’s a thief, the worst kind of attorney!
October 30th, 2007 at 11:12 pmcrazy as i can get, can u suggest any drugs?
Comment by brandy — October 30, 2007 @ 9:51 pm
Sorry I’m late but I’d suggest a frontal lobotomy followed by extensive electroshock therapy. Then heavy doses of thorazine and a padded cell. That should do it. Oh you might still want to have a straight jacket around so you don’t hurt yourself.
October 30th, 2007 at 11:13 pmI simply don’t believe all these guys who come here claiming to be lawyers. I think they pick the profession because they believe it gives them credibility. I have lawyers in my family - and they don’t have the time or inclination to post on blogs all day and night.
October 30th, 2007 at 11:15 pmOh yes, multi-taskers. One of the last attorneys I worked for is 70 years old, and in his spare time he went to Afghanistan for a year to help the new government set up their legal system.
But TCDon makes illiterate comments on Think Progress.
Well done!
October 30th, 2007 at 11:20 pmDid you learn to read with “Hooked on Phonics?â€
Comment by Zooey — October 30, 2007 @ 10:34 pm
Her mom got confused, forgot whether she was homeschooling or working the pole. Poor Brandy ended up with “Hookers on Phonics” instead.

October 30th, 2007 at 11:25 pmYour mom must be so proud of your scholastic achievements. Give her a big hug and a kiss for us and thank her, from us, for not making it thirty minutes.
God Bless Moms.

Everybody’s got to have cash before they can hug and kiss Brandy’s mom, even Brandy.

They were all victims of Mellon Scaiffe’s vendetta against Clinton? That ended up costing the government almost 50 million dollars in taxpayer money to follow a trail that led nowhere?
Compare that to Harken, where Bush was actually caught doing insider trading, only to receive a slap on the wrists by the SEC.
Poor little ‘tards, you really are stupid!
October 30th, 2007 at 11:33 pmO.k. Bouys and Gills, that’s a wrap.

MAYBE it’s because your posts lie like rotten fish? Crook?
October 30th, 2007 at 11:34 pm*snort*
We don’t need to research that bullshit, we can tell by looking.
How lame…
October 30th, 2007 at 11:35 pmSome of us can multi-task, Candyce.
Comment by TCDon — October 30, 2007 @ 11:17 pm
So your clients don’t deserve your full attention, even when they’re paying your full rates? I’m sure they’d feel cheated by this, so you’re dishonest and a cheat - yep, you’re a 24%er!
October 30th, 2007 at 11:35 pmSome of us can multi-task, Candyce.
Comment by TCDon — October 30, 2007 @ 11:17 pm
But others call it pure bullshit. Of course half of all the attorney’s graduated in the bottom of their class. And more than half of those went to crappy law schools in the first place. So while it is possible you went to law school it is sad that you learned nothing during that time.
October 30th, 2007 at 11:36 pmO.k. Bouys and Gills, that’s a wrap.
