Sen. Stevens’ Generous Offer
Posted by Richard on October 21, 2005
I heard on the news that Sen. Stevens "threatened to resign" if Alaska’s "bridge to nowhere" gets cut. I think "threatened to resign" is an unfair characterization of the Senator’s generous offer. I prefer to think of it as promising to resign. And I hope the Senate takes him up on it immediately.
(Sorry, no links. I just have a few minutes on someone else’s computer. Knoxville is lovely today, but they’re forecasting rain and cooler temps for the next few days. Doggone it.)

The Honorable Sen. Stevens;
Please resign. After seeing you and don young legislate, i have to the conclusion your are both self serving parasites.
your state has too many social problems that truly need addressed to give this money to your in/laws halburton or whatever company gave you a check last cycle.
My wife and I recently inherited a few million dollars & will probably move to canada to spend it & retire.
God you guys came off real real bad down here and pissed off a lot of repubs here. there are hunderds of elevated highways & bridges in need of remediation. Thousand of lives are at risk in PA NW ia a quake hit during rushours.
see if you & the rest of congress can ID critical areas & the bring help from area not in need.
this would be a jobs bill that would save live & make sense.
