| Lobbyists Im totally convinced that Ted Stevens is blatently owned by lobbyists and dosn't give a damn if you know it or not. Somebody put this in his head. But I can't figure out what industry / company would be in favor of this in concept? The only people who will gain from this are spammers! That's their primary feeding ground when generating email addresses. Who else would benefit from these suggestions? There must be more in the bill that we are overlooking.
By the way, Stevens is also one of the two guys who backed the infamous "bridge to nowhere" in Alaska in which an island with a population of 50 was going to be connected to Ketchikan (ummm, that's an island too) by a bridge larger than the Golden Gate Bridge for a price tag of $223 million!!! Even the islanders didn't want it because of what it would do to the environment. Bush even signed off on it but it eventually died late last year. »dir.salon.com/story/news/feature···bridges/ |
