My Summary:
Well gentlemen don't plan on going into Minneapolis airport bathroom unless you want to take a chance on getting hit on by another guy. Everyone knows about Republican Sen. Larry Craig when he did his little foot tappin' footsie to a man in the stall next to him. The foot tap is supposed to be a universal signal for a hidden hookup. Well the man in the stall next to him just happened to be a police officer, Sgt. Dave Karsnia. Six days before this incident the same disorderly conduct happened to Karsnia with a younger man. I find it to be hilarious and not to mention ridiculous. Trying to hookup with someone while using the restroom is just stupid and gross. Did Craig and the other man honestly think that it would work?

i thought that it was sad for senator larry craig because he belong to the homophobic party. there had been twenty-five years of rumor about the senator homosexuality. i believe that he went to get hook up at the bathroom because he is ashamed of who he is. that pretty much suck. you know the senator reminds me of senator strom thurmond who had an illegimate daughter with his black maid when he was 22 and the black maid was 16. the man bascally kept the secret about his daughter for years and even falibuster the civil right movement. i believe that senator thurmond kept his black daughter a secret just as senator craig kept his homosexuality a secret.
I have little sympathy for Senator Craig. He was a coward and a liar. He ran for public office on the basis of a completely false identity. I am happy to see him get his just desserts.
People elected him believing that he was somebody completely different from who he actually was. They got conned. That is sad. They were the victims.
I wonder how often over the years Senator Craig was blackmailed to vote in certain ways by people who knew his secret? I often wondered if that was what was driving his votes on the immigration issue because they certainly were not popular with his constituents at home. The same can be said for Lindsey Graham and John Kyl who are also normally very conservative and live in states where shamnesty is not popular yet ended up pushing for it and are also rumored to be closeted gays with hypocritical voting records on various gay issues.
I favor outing them so the conservatives can vote them out.
That's interesting. And true.
