GOP Backs Away From 'Not Gay' Idaho Senator

"Despite his defiant denials, Sen. Larry Craig is already suffering political damage from the scandal tied to his arrest in a men's bathroom.

The conservative Idaho Republican denied any misconduct Tuesday despite pleading guilty to a misdemeanor in connection with a men's room sting last June at the Minneapolis airport.

Craig also denied that he is gay and lashed out at his local newspaper, the Idaho Statesman, for what he called a "witch hunt."


The problem with this?

a) He already admitted he was guilty and paid the fine.
b) He's been outed before - several times.
c) He's consistantly backed anti-gay laws and bills.

At most, he's dishonest. My money is that he's a flaming hypocrite.

Yup. If he has to protest "I am not gay." he's already lost the battle, the only question is how bad he's going to lose. Personally I've no sympathy for him.

Pants on FIRE!

You made a punny.

The senator doth protest too much. But that's not a surprise from our Congress, is it?

QUACK, QUACK, QUACK!
