"Intertubes" Ted Stevens - he's b-a-a-a-a-ack

read the following very carefully, and see if you can determine the context...

didja figure it out...? don't worry, i don't think anybody could... ready...?

Almost as freaky as his infamously disjointed "series-of-tubes" speech last year about the Internet (which briefly earned him the Most Lampooned Politician on the Web award), Stevens's reelection site asks visitors to enter a username and password and then -- as they unsuccessfully fumble for a password -- condemns them with a warning... (see above)

where, oh where, oh where did it come from...? hmmmmmmmmmmmmm...?
