BBC NEWS | Americas | Republican Ney sentenced to jail
Before the Abramoff scandal erupted, Ney was perhaps best known internationally for his role in renaming French fries "freedom fries" in the Congressional cafeteria due to US anger at Pariss refusal to support the invasion of Iraq.
Ney's going to prison, the first Congresscritter convicted in connection with the Abramoff scandal. No word on what kind of prison job he'll take once inside Club Fed, but I'm hoping he'll be working the prison grill line.
