Craig Lovers: What part of "Guilty Plea" do you not understand?
Unwavering Larry Craig lovers, like Don Adair, are in denial themselves. They cling to an arcane and obscure wording in the constitution, which pardons politicians from certain trivial crimes. Since there were no toilets 200 years ago, I don’t think our founders foresaw Larry’s potty perving escapade.
So the get-out-of-jail-free card doesn’t work. Otherwise, with Don’s logic, Charlie Manson could be an Idaho senator. But, maybe I’m not too far off since Idaho is renowned for electing convicted felons – like George IRS-FRAUD Hansen (hmm, Manson rhymes with Hansen…).
My dear LLLs, unfortunately for you and your ilk, soliciting anonymous sex in a PUBLIC bathroom is a FELONY. The idea being that it is akin to pedophilia because the perpetrator (Larry) doesn’t really know HOW YOUNG that cute, diminutive officer really is. But hey, maybe things have changed in Idaho since I left and lewd bathroom sex is now legal. Does Idaho have fellatios laws now?? (tee,hee)
I’m so proud to see Idaho’s sons, like Mr. Adair, defending gay sex rights. In Idaho, evidently it’s a crime for consenting adults to have heterosexual sex, with say an intern (Monica) that has come on to you, even in private. But gay sex in public bathrooms is A-Okay in I-da-ho. Kewl! I’m there! Don honey, can you meat me at the airport?? I’ll be in stall #4. Tap, tap, tap… Uh oh, I’m getting all hot and bothered again just thinking about all of you Idaho boys. Gotta goo. Luv ya, CB
trust
Yea If you haven't lived in a closet all your live you understand that Larry is more than a homosexual. He's a thrill seeker who really doesn't care who's in the next stall. They could be 15 and it wouldn't matter. Truth is, I wouldn't trust Larry Craig if he were my kids scout leader yet alone represent me in Washington. Just pathetic Don and all of you who've never ventured out of your own little world. Wake up and smell the coffee. You've been had and don't even know it.
Don Adair in denial
Lol! Larry Craig's crime was that he "acted stupid"? How about he is stupid. And a liar and a waffler and a toilet pervert. He pleaded guilty. GUILTY.
Republican hypocrite.
Gay Senator?
["Also, who really cares if we have a gay senator, even if he lies about it, so long as he does a decent job?"]
Welllll....firstly, Mr. Craig swears he's not gay. And if he "LIES ABOUT IT." Oh, there ya go....
The man first tried to use his influence by showing off his business card to get out of whatever it was he had done, however small. The he PLED freakin' guilty! How much more stupid does he have to be/act before it's obvious to you that he IS stupid?
To Don:
I find it incredibly amazing that Democratic indiscretions always end up digging through the annals of history to the Clinton administration but all the way back to the 70's for a second example? Give me a break. Get a blank piece of paper and start listing Republican indiscretions on one side, and Democrat on the other. See which list is longer. Start with the Abramoff scandel, and work both ways from there. Oh, yeah. Any time you come across Cheney's name, you should redact it. Better get a BIG magic marker.
Do your research and you'll find you are wrong
To make that list I hope you'll research more than the mainstream media. Not many scandals of democrats make it to mainstream media. How about the senator Jefferson about a year ago? Just to name one. There are many, but it seems only the Republican scandals make it to the nightly news or to the Statesman.
People have to face it, ALL politicians are corrupt to some extent. To think that democrats are somehow more virtuous is ridiculous. By definitition they are less honest than Republicans. It's time We The People opened our eyes and stopped calling each other names because we all basically want the same thing.
Democrats less honest?
Idahogal,
Your statement that Democrats are, by definition, less honest than Republicans, is not really in keeping with your following sentence, where we should stop calling each other names.
Also a correction in your post. William Jefferson is a member of the US House of Representatives, not the US Senate. After his particular indiscretion (bundles of cash found in his freezer), he was removed from the House Ways and Means Committee by voice vote of the full House (after the Democratic caucus voted to have him removed).
Lastly, the notion that the MSM has a "liberal" bias is highly debatable. Do you really believe that in this day and age that any Democratic scandals would not be blared out loudly by FOX News and the Wall Street Journal. It is more likely that such "news" outlets would suppress stories on GOP scandals than they would on Democratic scandals.

The Full Rundown on the Larry Craig tap dance
Do Republicans control the Idaho Hall of Fame?
The Idaho Legislature has been continuously controlled by the Republican Party since the late 1950s.
The Hall of Fame was created by the Republican legislature.
Here are some of the state statues relating to the Hall of Fame. Click each link to view:
Idaho Statue 67-8501
Idaho Statue 67-8502
Idaho Statue 67-8503
Idaho Statue 67-8504
How Idaho statutes are numbered
For anyone who is interested:
Idaho statues are numbered by title and chapter. Statues are listed in the chapters.
So, Title 67 is "State Government and State Affairs".
and Chapter 85 is "Idaho Hall of Fame Advisory Board".
Hall of fame
The whole idea is a joke. You're going to reward people for destroying the middle class of Idaho. That's just repulsive. Ya ought to give em all a big toilet bowl. None of em are worth what I'd leave in it for em. I can't wait to hear all the moaning after the next election. Bend over cause were going to shove all kinds of stuff up all your buts even though only one of you'll appreciate it.
Hall of fame
you Keep smoking that pot!!
Satue 67 series
Uh-oh. Just read some of the statue 67 posted by Observer and almost fell out of the chair. Sickening! We have been had again and again......State Treasury funding the Hall of Fame! OMG
Scandals
Anyone that thinks that the Democrats are the party without scandle, have no grasp of the facts. Do your research it is easy to find. Just the sheer number that occured with the other Jefferson, William Jefferson Clinton, is quite extensive. Just face the fact that a large portion of our "public servants" only serve themselves. One thing for certain is that a vote for Hillary will bring more scandle, so the best outsider is Rudy.
Is Clinton the only Dem Scandal? Republicans have 34 scandals!!
"Clinton, Clinton, Clinton.."
You sound like chicken little. Got any other names? Abramhoff, Packwood, Foley, Delay, Haggard, Cunningham, Brownie... The list goes on and on for RepubliCONS. There are 34 RepubliCon scandals and counting. Click below to read about them all:
34 Republican Scandals
Go Hill Go Barack!
Oh Rudy is so strange-.........his kids hate him, affairs, married his cousin. Clinton and Obama are brilliant, kind, ready to serve honestly - and might I add will have the difficulty of cleaning up an enormous mess Bush has created.
Uhm, isn't this a little off topic?
I love your enthusiasm, but perhaps you shouldn't drink and blog at the same time. ;) Speakin' o witch, wheare's my confouded Jack Dan botle...

VERY FUNNY LARRY CRAIG VIDEOS on COMEDY CENTRAL
Luv ya, CB
Larry Craig is innocent
Larry Craig is innocent. Here are the reasons why.
1. Legitimate sting operations to not result in no evidence other than the word of a cop against a civilian.
2. Legitimate sting ops have video.
3. Legitimate sting ops have audio.
4. Legitimate sting ops have multiple cop to testify and confirm.
5. Legitimate sting ops produce evidence that a prosecutor would present in court.
6. Legitimate sting ops act on the assumption that the case will have to be proven in court.
7. Legitimate sting ops have an actual crime.
8. None of the acts (individually or collectively) alleged to have been done by Craig constitute a crime in Minnesota or any other state.
9. Homosexuallity is legal in Minnesota. They love gays in Minnesota.
10. This is 2007 not 1927. Gays do not have any secret signs they give eachother for mutual recognition.
Oh Brother...
There could not have been audio and video in the bathroom. As Lavatory Larry learned the hard way, people have an expectation of privacy in the bathroom.
There was plenty of evidence, including the unrefuted sworn testimony of the cop who arrested Craig, his police report, the report of the cop who was waiting outside the restroom, that of the cop who Craig tried to intimidate by showing his Senate card, and the audio of the interrogation.
The facts of the case could have been tried in Court, BUT CRAIG CHOSE TO PLEAD GUILTY INSTEAD. He had 50-something days to consider his plea.
True, homosexuality isnt a crime,BUT SOLICITING ANONYMOUS GAY SEX IN A PUBLIC RESTROOM FREQUENTED BY KIDS IS! Craig could have flirted with a boyfriend in the lobby and if they'd gone to a private residence, it would have been legal. Craig was trying to have sex in the bathroom.
Homosexuality was not the crime, Here is what the crime was...
Doug baby, homosexuality was not the crime. Rather it was soliciting ANONYMOUS sex in a PUBLIC bathroom which is borderline pedophile behavior...because my horney, naughty, very nasty boy, Larry, didn't KNOW whethere that VERY youthful, small, blonde, police officer was over 18 years of age.
My Larry likes em young. What about you, Dougie-pooh? If anonymous bathroom sex down at Julia Davis park is legal now in Ideehow, then let's meat eachother there, big boy!! Luv ya, CB

STEP BY STEP RE-CAP SHOWING WHY IT WAS A CRIME
WHY BATHROOM SEX BORDERS ON PEDOPHELIA
What would your life have been like if you had oxygen at birth
You are so ignorant it makes my hair hurt..Your comments #9 and 10 are ample evidence of your knuckle dragging, mouth breathing ignorance.. Wow! So, if a policeman is sitting on the side of the road and you cruise by at 100 mph and he gives you a ticket, is that illegal also? Why dont you just admit that you are conflicted and confused? You obviously have a virulent hatred of all gays, yet you only have enough intelligence to blindly support all Republicans. This must be hard on you (like the 2nd grade was). Larry Craig is clearly gay (must hate him) yet he is a republican (must love him, he can do no wrong).
Gays have no secret signs? LMAO...you know this how? Please, I am beggin you, leave the comment writing for people that don't have wheels on their house and none on their car and that do have more than 3 teeth...
Weak Presentations
To the following: Redneckhater, CraigBoy, rkcarte, you really diminish your effectiveness with name calling and insults coupled with an apparant inability to ruminate objectively through the facts. Also you respond to others and only address the points that suit you. If you look at history and the facts you will see that the scandle tally is probably about equal for both major parties. The fact that is worth repeating here is that too many politicians are serving only themselves and special interests. As far as Rudy's relationship with his children, what does that have to do with his qualifications? You need to provide evidence that he married his cousin. If you want to be informed research all the progress that was made in NYC that he was responsible for and compare it to the records of Hillary and Obama. Ask the people in upstate NY if the 200,000 + jobs were created for them per Hillary's campaign promise. What you will find is declining population trends as people flee upstate NY due to high taxes and deteriorating economic conditions.
Don't feel so unwanted, Strohem, we all luv you, esp. Craigboy
I jiiz luv all u Idaho hunks. Luv ya, CB
Strohem
I read it in the news numerous times, different publications that Rudy did indeed marry his 2nd cousin.Name calling? I didn't call names. Sounds like you are getting worried also about this election.
...rudy's kids
Oh....and since you mention his children. I think it speaks volumes that his own children can't stand him. The Bush twins LOVE their Dad, I don't, but it shows a certain degree of respect and decency towards their father that I appreciate.
Craig creates jobs :
All across this country , janitors are working overtime to erase " Craig Was Here " graffiti from bathroom walls .
Finely a Republican that creates jobs instead of outsourcing them .
Most of the janitors are probably illegal immigrants but maybe this is a way for them to learn English .
Reddog
200,000 NY Jobs
Where are the jobs Hillary promised? Name your sources that he married his cousin. What is her name? How do you know his kids "can't stand" him? Present facts not rumors. Reddog have you checked the unemployment rate and economic growth figures? Tax cuts have helped the economy remain resilant. Also Reddog, private companies outsource jobs. Please provide the specific information on the jobs that were outsourced by Republicans.
Country founded on Judeo Christian values
That's like saying cowboys coming off the trail longed to reach town so they could go to church. The whorehouses paid more taxes than the church.
Rudy's former wife...
....his COUSIN is Regina Peruggi. His children have repeatedly refused to campaign with him. They despise him. I don't live in NYC and do not know what their employment rate is but i do know the MAJORITY like Hillary and she is the one who sd "no more increases for Congress until we raise minimum wage"........I would think if your NYC employment issues were valid then most of the folks there wouldn't want her in office, but they do.
rudy post-911
strohem i am attempting to touch on your points - ok, rudy - now u tell me about the progress he supposedly made in NYC. All I see good that Rudy has EVER done is that he was a pleasant voice of calm after 9-11. He was good at it, calming people....oh, & advising people to shop after the tragedy.
Rudy
I will research Peruggi. I spoke of unemployment in upstate NY NOT NYC. Please look at a map and check the population trends, tax rates, and unemployment rates for cities/MSA's like Buffalo, Syracuse, Rochester, Binghamton, and Elmira. The population increase in Florida is attributed in part to Upstate NY transplants. Florida has NO state income tax. Read and comprehend my commentary before you reply. How about Chelsea Clinton's sweet heart job? Does she despise Bill and Hillary? If that is all you got on Rudy that is weak. What did he do for NYC? Lower crime rate, large population INCREASE, calming 911, and cut spending. Where are the 200,000 jobs Hillary promised the people of Upstate New York? Rudy has a decent chance of taking New York in the general election and if he takes NY he'll win Pa. and Hillary won't have enough electorial votes to win.
You do that research....
& post it - the game is on! Most of your beef is with the 200 thous jobs? THAT is weak. Is that ALL you have on her? Lower crime rate in NY? Ok, whatever you say. I think you are starting the slow meltdown to next year when she takes the helm. That's what I think your real fear is. You can carry on all you want but that is the bottom line, oh and Craig loves Rudy. That is what this site is supposed to be about I guess. Peace.
Hillary's Resume
BLANK, BLANK, BLANK. Actually if you add the 65,000 jobs lost in Upstate NY since her promise she is 265,000 behind. Bad economic conditions, high taxes, and job losses; is not want we need for our country. Rudy will win, but if she does who cares that is what a democracy is all about. I have a personal life which I am certain that no Politican really cares about. What would happen here if 65,000 jobs were lost? I now understand that you have no facts and derive opinions from emotion. TO RKCARTE I see you want to hold Rudy accountable for his personal life but give the Clinton's a free pass. That is fair and objective. You also won't make it as a commedy writer, so my advice to you is do not change your career.
Idaho Job Losses. Gee, can we blame Hillary?
Idaho doesn't look to good on the job front either. Are you going to blame Hillary on that too? Or maybe we should blame Mr. Wide Stance.
Facts
Pencil, what is the unemployment rate in Idaho? Do we loose population every year? Isn't one of our major issues in the Treasure Valley controlling growth? Trust me there is no comparison to upstate NY. Do a little research on that area and then you will see how fortunate you are to live in a pro-growth state. Bottom line is Hillary promised to create 200,000 jobs, instead they lost 65,000. Please when you read this understand the geographic and economic differences between NYC and Upstate NY.
