Alaska Senator Ted Stevens, recently convicted on 7 felony charges, could still represent AK. Its not just Stevens, Don Young has been under investigation over the past year as well.
Ill take a democrat senator if Uncle Ted is expelled from the senate but I will not vote for one. Give me a democrat congressman if Young is guilty as well.
The Jackhole Ted has representented AK for 40 years, he is out of touch with Alaskans. He has been convicted of 7 counts of corruption/taking bribes. His ego and arrogance has gotten in the way of proper representation of Alaskan citizens in the federal elections and he might actualy be the only felon as a Senator this term if my fellow Alaskans vote him in.
The arguments for keeping Stevens and Young in office are their seniority and the key pannels, boards, WTF ever they are called, they are on. They not only hold sway over cash coming here but cash going to other states.
We need term limits. We need to stop our representatives looking out for themselves and not looking out for us
Ive been asked to stop white posting, so if you dont like my spelling ( I know my spelling sucks) deal with it.
Why this has to do with non Alaskans...
Both Don Young And Ted Stevens have been in the Congressional branch for so long they are on key commitees that impact your lives in 1 way or another.
I do not want my representatives impacting your lives simply because of how long they have spent in public office. I want my representatives looking out for me, not their public power or what they can do for you.
This goal can best be achieved with term limits, and eliminating seniority positions in federal postings.
Ive had a long day , Im ranting, I needed a small vent, and I hope I made some point.
