Another one here and another one there, another one bites the dust…

…referring, of course, to Alaskan titan of frigid politics Senator Ted Stevens, about whom McClatchy, via the Huffington Post, reports:
Sen. Ted Stevens, the longest-serving Republican in the U.S. Senate and one of the chamber's most powerful members, was indicted Tuesday in Washington, a result of a year-long investigation into corruption in Alaska politics.

The indictment comes nearly one year after federal agents raided Stevens' home in Girdwood, a resort town about 40 miles south of Anchorage.
I'm pretty sure that home in Girdwood is the one that Stevens had lifted from the ground, completely and literally, and allowed a crony contractor to build Stevens an entirely new first floor to the home, then setting the original first floor on top for an instant two-story home.

What a deal!

There is still no official word on whether or not Stevens sought to have a bridge built to the second floor.
