Ted Stevens Is A Liar

After he unsuccessfully attempted to sneak ANWR oil drilling in through the Senate's back door last month, Alaska Senator Ted Stevens threw a fit and said: "I say goodbye to the Senate tonight."

Well, surprise -- it looks like Stevens is not a man of his word (from Political Wire):

Despite threats he would quit the U.S. Senate, Sen. Ted Stevens (R-AK) instead told the Anchorage Daily News he's going to ignore those "former friends" who blocked his plan to open the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge to oil drilling.

Said Stevens: "I'm not traveling with them anymore, and I'm not going to play tennis or swim or do various things with them."
