The Justice Department has announced that it will dismiss all corruption charges against former Alaska Sen. Ted Stevens and will not seek a new trial, citing prosecutorial misconduct, according to an AP report. The two prosecutors assigned to the case were held in contempt by the judge in the case, who called their behavior outrageous. They withheld exculpatory evidence in the case that may have led to an acquittal. Accusations of an “inappropriate relationship” between prosecutors and their lead witness were leveled by a whistle-blower inside the FBI. This was a political hit job.
To tell the truth, I wondered if this was not the reality behind this case. It just seemed far too convenient for the Democrats to have Sen. Stevens removed from office at this precise moment in time, when they are l0oking for every advantage to use against the Republicans and increase their grip on the government.
As a result of this sham prosecution, Sen. Stevens lost his senate seat to Democratic challenger Mark Begitch. Begitch says that dropping the charges against Stevens is “not unreasonable.” But if Begitch had any integrity, he would offer Sen. Stevens his seat back, and apologize to the people of Alaska for being part of a lie. The corruption in this case is not with Sen. Stevens, as was revealed today, but with the Democratic Party and the Justice Department, which is still largely populated with Clinton appointees. Alaskans were deceived into voting for a candidate they probably would not have voted for otherwise. Stevens lost his election bid by only 3,724 votes, 46.7% to Mark Begitch’s 47.9%.
The Democratic Party has adopted several methods to win elections, including deception, fraud, and corruption. The Stevens Case is an example of how they will find any allegation upon which they can trump up charges of corruption against Republicans, and then use the precisely timed wave of outrage to ride into power. The argument over who the senate seat is ongoing in Minnesota between Democrat Al Franken and Republican Norm Coleman. With such egregious irregularities in the election results, how can any reasonable person just assume that Al Franken actually won? It is now coming to light that ACORN submitted thousands of fraudulent voter registrations, and were guilty of throwing the elections in several counties where they were operating. The Democrats are throwing any vestiges of integrity to the winds in their desperate grab for more power.
And what have they done with that power thus far? Flouted the will of the American People at every turn, and governed as though they were accountable to no-one and the seats of power are theirs by right. Their corruption will catch up with them, and the results will not be pretty. If they refuse to learn the lessons of history, that tyranny leads to civil unrest, and that the wrong response to that unrest will lead to greater conflict, they will create a downward spiral that will eventually lead to civil war.
While both parties have responsibility for the current situation in which we find ourselves, the Democrats are deceiving the American people in order to steal the elections and win back power. If they really had a better plan, they wouldn’t need to resort to such dishonest methods to win elections. But the fact is that they don’t, and so must rely upon unsavory means of winning. Once in power, they will use every means at their disposal, including the Courts and appeals to the International community to ram their radical agenda down America’s throat.
