“might just have tapped his foot to act silly, or because he was tipsy”

Or because his leg was falling asleep. I tap my feet all the time when I’m bored, because sitting still in a boring place is, well, boring. When I first heard about this I thought it was a caught in the act type deal, and had some heated words for Senator Craig... Now I’m not so sure. What’s done is done, but it bothers me to think a politicians career could be ended so easily.

Funny you should ask: "Associated Press gave strikingly similar accounts of the events that led to the 41 arrests officers made for alleged lewd conduct in public restrooms in the main terminal of the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport during the May-August sting."

I reached down with my right hand like this to pick up a piece of paper

Really? Do people really pick up toilet paper from a public restroom floor?

Very interesting question. We in Minnesota are apparently paying police officers to wait in bathrooms for hand signals?

Exactly.

Let's say that this lying hypocrite is actually telling the truth - anybody with no better personal hygiene practices that would pick a piece of toilet paper off the floor of a public restroom is not fit to be one of our leaders.

I cannot believe there are republicans defending this behaviour.

It doesn’t matter. Craig pled guilty. It’s over and done with, period. Hand wringing is is hand wringing, nothing more nothing less.

The law of unintended consequences dictates: Never, ever admit to something you didn’t do.

Next!

“The republican party is in serious trouble right now.”

We have a lot of Sodomites who have apparently burrowed into the Republican grass. I have heard far too much of this bathroom stuff for my stomach to handle.

Gay rumors have been circulating about Craig for awhile. Do senators travel by themselves? They are public figures.

Now that a Republican senator has resigned, the libs want to return the debate to police tactics, because they don’t want a discussion of the merits of gay sex in restrooms. We don’t need to help them. Our side repulses me more and more.

Imagine being a police officer and spending your shifts in bathroom stalls trolling for queers. I wonder if he likes his job or is he homophobic?

That’s what I’ve wondered.

Who in hell would put their hand under the partition when someone is in that next stall? Or put their foot over there? I loathe having to sit next to someone else in a public restroom. Just thinking about this gives me the creeps.

.....possibility, considering the Idaho newspapers research on Craig, that he was specifically entrapped for political reasons?

Of course he was trapped. But like all good trappers, Craig's enemies knew their quarry, its habits, exactly where to put the trap, how to bait it, and definitely how to spring it.

Craig is as gay as Christmas in Guatemala. (See redoutable freeper, Congressman Billybob) That's been known far and wide for a long time. They got him good. Maybe, like any reputable prep school, the GOP ought to have its own "Queer Patrol." No use letting the opposition party have all the fun.

Senator Craig probably made a very bad judgment that if he pled guilty to a disorderly conduct misdemeanor, the whole thing could go away with no publicity. I've been involved in legal matters for employers and clients, and it is very true that once lawyers get involved, the thing takes on a life of its own. That may have been his thought process. As far as the police officer, I wonder if being a decoy for blatant homosexual misdemeanors gets assigned to the guys at the top of the performance list, or to the guys who the department doesn't trust with anything important.

This police officer seems to have charged everything he could, and got a guilty plea on one. I'll bet it's like a little star on the officer's record, just like hitting a quota on traffic tickets.

Sure did. I've posted it myself many times. I especially like the part where he says:

5. I now make no claim that I am innocent of the charge to which I am entering a plea of guilty.

With his great big signature underneath. Oh no! Could it be he was lying?
