Cheney's link to corrupt senator Stevens exposed

By GottaLaff

Oh dear. Oh my and oh dear:

Vice President Dick Cheney has been linked to Alaska Senator Ted Stevens, who the Justice Department has accused of seven counts of falsely reporting hundreds of thousands of dollars, Newsweek reported.

In a conversation secretly recorded by the FBI on June 25, 2006, Stevens "discussed ways to get a pipeline bill through the Alaska Legislature with Bill Allen, an oil-services executive accused of providing the senator with about $250,000 in undisclosed financial benefits."

Stevens told Allen: "I'm gonna try to see if I can get some bigwigs from back here and say, 'Look … you gotta get this done'."

Only two days later, Cheney took the unusual step of writing a letter to the Alaska legislature which pushed the members to "promptly enact" a bill that would approve the pipeline.

Aw, come on, let's not be hasty. We all know the Nation of Dick is innocent. He'd never do anything underhanded. He's a fine, upstanding gentleman who always insists on complete transparency. Give him a break. There's no witness, no proof. Wild accusations, as usual. Fuggetaboutit.

Stevens revealed that he asked the vice president to send such a letter.

Never mind.
