Ronald Regan might be a little jealous. Larry and his wife did a little better than a B movie.

Only conclusion I could find is in the Matt interview nationally, Larry indicated he reached down with his right hand and removed a piece of paper from his shoe.

The audio transcript by the arresting police officer indicated Larry showed him his left hand. I guess its a more interesting situation showing a wedding ring.

What the local interview did say , Larry really believes he can bring back pork to Idaho.
He is on some very high power committee’s.
If a fill in were put into the Senate , he or she would not be on those committee’s.

So that being said, If money can be allocated to Idaho because of where Craig sits, than leave him in.

I guess the problem now for the future is, a judical judge figuring out where Larry Craig of Idaho sits?

“But, amid the ruckus that followed the arrest of Senator Larry Craig for allegedly soliciting sex from a plainclothes officer in an airport rest room, little attention was paid to his unusual Washington, D.C., address: 1000 Water Street. There, across the Washington Channel from the Jefferson Memorial, is the Capital Yacht Club, where Craig lives on a forty-two-foot Bertram yacht called the Suz II, named for his wife, Suzanne, who stays back home in Idaho. Craig, a fastidious man who was known to pick up trash around the club, is well liked by his fellow-yachtsmen. (Explaining his behavior in the airport stall, he told the police that he had bent down to pick up a piece of paper.)…”

Whatever floats your boat?

It makes him irresistable to Idaho Republicans. They will overlook all his lying and mismanaging of this affair to let Larry have his day in Court that he gave up because he wasn’t guilty in the first place????? I guess holdover Craig supporters (I laughed just typing that) sleep pretty well at night unencumbered as they are with rational thought. With Novak’s revelation that Republican Senate leadership was aware of the Senator Perv’s predelictions, I’m starting to wonder how many Idaho Republicans were complicit in the secrets of Larry Craig. After all its their closet they had him build to put himself in.

Disillusionment has long since passed, and regardless of the “hang-on & never give-up your post” mentality for the “I-gotta-get-re-elected” types (which is obviously more than I care to admit), IT IS TIME FOR ACCOUNTABILITY. It wasn’t long ago when Rush asked a woman the question about when someone’s in office, something to the effect what is their goal? She responded in a Pollyanna manner…”to serve their fellow man, etc…” He stopped her after a couple of sentences and refuted, “NO! To get re-elected!!”
This may be true, but it is still unacceptable.

I’m with Robert…how can we help Mr. Craig to know his time is up?

In reference to your question:

“Isn’t that the Republican way?”

No. It is not the Democratic or Independent way either. The first priority of any elected politician, no matter what they tell you, is to be re-elected and hold on to their power etc.

I am sorry to disillusion you.
