Embattled exec fingers GOP Senator Ted Stevens' son in bribery trial
Former VECO Corp. CEO Bill Allen testified in the federal trial of former Alaska House Speaker Pete Kott Thursday that he bribed three lawmakers, including the son of GOP Senator Ted Stevens, the Washington Post reports.

Former state Senate president Ben Stevens, son of U.S. Senator Ted Stevens, was implicated along with Kott and state Rep. Vic Kohring.

Allen and former VECO vice president Rick Smith have already entered guilty pleas and are awaiting sentencing.

2. Bill Allen is an old and broken man.
I'm sure he agreed to testify against everyone involved in order to guarantee himself a lighter sentence. Why else would he plead guilty without a trial?

7. I know they like men's rooms, but I didn't know they fingered each other in public, too.

9. No! Leave the children alone, too! One Foley is enough!

I am promoting a strictly anti-fingering, anti-men's room sex, anti-children-thinking agenda! It's the only way forward!
