"Stevens' political career may have just been flushed down a series of tubes."
Bob, 12:26 PM: This may be Palin's "Ayres", but I don't think Ayres was actually convicted of anything.
Noah, 12:48 PM: I don't think Ayres was actually convicted of anything

I think charges were dropped.
B Mac, 4:53 PM: I think the charges were dropped

I think they were dropped because of prosecutorial misconduct. Not positive.
steves, 6:32 AM: This may be Palin's "Ayres", but I don't think Ayres was actually convicted of anything.

So?

Charges against him were dropped because of a failure to get a warrant for some of the surveillance. He freely admits to what he was accused of doing. In his own words:

"Guilty as sin, free as a bird, America is a great country."
Bob, 9:33 PM: So?

Smitty made an error when trying to compare felons.

Anyway, is it true Ayres got off because the Nixon justice department used illigal wiretaping?
