this stinks - repugs foil justice again

The Justice Department will drop all charges against former Alaska Sen. Ted Stevens due to problems with the prosecution. Attorney General Eric Holder was reportedly “horrified by the failure of prosecutors to turn over all relevant materials to the defense.” In a statement this morning, Holder said, “I have determined that it is in the interest of justice to dismiss the indictment and not proceed with a new trial.”
