Question

Is Ted Stevens a typical and honorable member of the GOP? What did he do that was sooo wrong?

Answer 1

He took gifts from an oil company worth hundreds of thousands of dollars and didn't disclose the amount to the government. Yes, that is wrong, especially if he enacts legislation in return for those favors which he did. He's a sell out, just like McCain and instead of working for the American people, he and McCain work for whomever contributes the most to their campaigns. Typical Republicans.

VOTE OBAMA In '08!!

Answer 2

I consider him a politician, I would bet that hes not the only one of either party that has accepted special favors from companies and individuals. The posters here that slam the Republican party as something different should know better.

Answer 3

Probably most of the things that Republicans keep accusing Democrats of doing.  Whenever they want to smear the Democrats' morals they just look in the mirror for ideas.
