Ted Stevens (R-AK) Indicted

McClatchy reports Alaska's Ted Stevens charged with failing to disclose gifts. Stevens famously said the Internet was like "a series of tubes" and pushing for the "bridge to nowhere".

"Sen. Ted Stevens, the longest-serving Republican in the U.S. Senate and one of the chamber's most powerful members, was indicted [on 7 charges] Tuesday in Washington for failing to disclose more than $250,000 worth of gifts that he received from businessmen who were seeking his help on federal issues and projects."
