Why men like Larry Craig continue to court danger in public places
(Excerpt) Read more at slate.com ...
The thought of seeking a cheap, meaningless, temporary thrill in a public restroom has honestly never occurred to me; however, I would like to think that if I were ever driven to such an act, I’d begin my search in the lady’s room....
Bizarre but, I suppose, informative.
No appropriate force stoping them?
Born in Idaho, but reared in Minnesota.
I’m shocked to see that he is apparently going to be the last one to realize these are all equivalent.
Go away and good riddance.
Makes me never what to take a good honest crap in a mens room again.
A lot of assumptions are made here, and how many of them are true? As a judge you have to hear both sides. I wonder how many of the articles written have the author being unbiased and seeking both sides before printing. Haven’t seen one yet! So is any of it true? other that the pleading of guilty! Perhaps the cop was lying? Seen that yet? I have to agree with Ben Stein, Gestapo, until I see the facts from court!
Strange question coming from Slate when they could have just phoned David Brock for some insight.
Gud one!
yes, there is that little thing.
The signs were there. I added it all up, as soon as I heard about the Minnesota arrest. Craig's been doing this for decades. He just finally got caught. (Actually, he was caught two decades ago, but he lied his way out of it. Happened at the same time as the Studds matter.)
Craig wasn't railroaded or tricked. He was simply caught.

other than the pleading of guilty. . . Did you really intend that phrase?
Should I believe you? Why? If I am to, then that can mean that what ever is put in print is true. And would you want me to believe that? I don’t think you do. Sooo, a conundrum, I am at the end of the table, unbiased, I have read numerous articles on the “Larry Craig” debacle. (Oh by the way, I don’t care about him one way or the other). So speak your factual piece, which I am sure is documented and backed by reputable sources. And would those sources stand up to scrutiny.
Yes I did.
Take your time on the reply. I’m going to bed, it’s 9:34PM here in Seattle, I’ll read your reply and respond tomorrow.
Amen. Gestapo is right.
WHat were the signs you saw?
Parts of what I know was reported, though not taken as true, in small articles in ancient newspapers. Anyone can find those references and decide whether they are believable, now. But the other part, what I know from talking to people and listening to them, what about that?
I am not going to damage other people to "prove" my point. Believe me, or don't believe me, based on the reputation I have built here over the last decade. But do not ask me to betray confidences and harm people who did not ask for it. That's where I stop.
I hope that's satisfactory for you. I have nothing more to add.
