They said EMTs have been on the scene waiting for backup.

Kalwejt I find your hysterical, crying-and-looking-up-at-the-sky-saying-why-god-why-behavior when tragedies happen to be offensive. You acted this way when President Kaczynski died earlier this year as well. Ted Stevens was a disgrace in addition to any corruption happened under his watch. Just because someone famous died doesn't mean you have to become their #1 Fan. The man was a U.S. Senator in charge of commerce and had no idea what the Internet was! He screamed at his fellow Senators for threatening to take money away from his fiefdom. He was no statesman, he doesn't deserve any RIPs.


Thank God someone has some common sense around here. Marokai did as well. My thoughts exactly.

Not to be too much of a hack on such a sad day, but I have to say this.

I hardly think Kennedy (I assume you are refering to Ted) was any better.

Ted Kennedy had Chappaquiddick.

Its partly because of sentiment like this quote from an unknown troll that I have no sympathy for Stevens.

Ted Stevens wasn't fit to clean the floors Ted Kennedy walked on.

You're a jerkoff, post reported for trolling.

The list of famous folks who die in plane crashes in Alaska has become quite long, starting with Will Rogers, and including Hale Boggs.  Sad. RIP Sen Stevens.

Well, it's sort of an important means of transportation in Alaska, as I'm sure you're well aware. The amount of crashes is probably about average for the amount of hours that are flown up there. I don't think planes are used as such a ready source of transportation anywhere else in the US. Have you ever seen the show about the Alaskan State Troopers? It's a lot of work to move a prisoner from point A to point B.

I don't share his level of animosity towards Stevens but that was hardly trolling, that was just his opinion.

Being a porkmeister hardly deserves such animosity. In the end is corruption, like Byrds really didn't hurt anyone directly and while what he did was very wrong, no one of his level of corruption deserves to go out that way. Now, if you were talking Jeffrey Dahmer, that's another story.
