Sen. Ted Stevens has just [been indicted](http://www.nytimes.com/reuters/washington/politics-usa-crime-stevens.html) in the ongoing corruption scandal that’s rocked this state for the past couple of years. The FBI has already managed to send several of our state legislators to prison for being in bed with the oil industry, and has a few more in their sights, including Sen. Stevens, his son Ben Stevens (former State Senator), and our lone wolf (and resident fool) Representative, Don Young.

To me, this whole debacle just reeks of reflected White House disregard for the law. Whatever daddy does, junior does. The arrogance of these people knows no bounds, and I look forward to the indictments on a national level.
