Ted Stevens Talked To Grand Jury Witness: Feds
By Andrew Tilghman - August 15, 2008 - http://tpmmuckraker.talkingpointsmemo.com/2008/08/ted_stevens_talked_to_grand_ju.php


Here's another interesting email federal prosecutors found when they were sifting through Sen. Ted Stevens' files.

Stevens (R-AK) was writing to a friend described here only as "Person A," who was slated to appear before a grand jury.

This is how the scenario is spelled out in court documents filed last night: .............

1. That's an interesting bit of information. TPM has a good collection of T.Stevens articles
right there on the same page.

K&R.

3. Time to focus on the money trails. More Senators got VECO $$$$$
Regarding the charges brought. Why not bribery? The charges are for false filings under penalty of perjury, and have mandatory prison terms. I suspect that Ted Stevens is being leveraged, as in forced to cooperate to avoid life in prison, for the purpose of gaining more convictions. It is possible that some of the other targets are also Republican Senators.

Who's Who in the "Corrupt Bastards Club" ??

Stevens, Corrupt VECO CEO Campaign Contributions. More R Senators Involved.

Funds even flowed from Stevens to McCain!

Lots of Big Oil money was sloshing about, to PACs, from Pacs to Rs, from R to R ....
Then there were the free fishing trips ....

Mark my words, Ted is the new Jack Abramoff.

VECO gave lots of money to Ted's PAC. And Ted gave his PAC money to:

Abraham, Alexander, Allard, Allen, Ashcroft, Bennett, Bond, Brownback, Bunning, Burns, Burr, Bush, Campbell, Chafee, Chambliss, Coburn, Cochran, Coleman, Collins, Coors, Corker, Cornyn, Craig, Crapo, D'Amato, DeMint, DeWine, Dole, Domenici, Ensign, Enzi, Faircloth, Fitzgerald, Fong, Fong, Franks, Frist, Ganske, Giuliani, Gorton, Graham,Grams, Grassley, Gregg, Hastert, Hatch, Humphreys, Hutchinson, Inhofe, Inouye, Isakson, Jeffords, Jones, Kean, Kyl, Lazio, Lott, Lugar, Martinez, Mattingly, McCain, McCollum, McConnell, McGavick, Michels, Murkowski, Murkowski, Nethercutt, Nickles, Raese, Ricketts, Roberts, Roth, Ryan, Sand, Santorum, Shelby, Smith, Snowe, Specter, Steele, Stenberg, Sununu, Talent, Terrell, Thomas, and Thune.
