Apparently the BATHROOM in CONGRESS is also a wonderful place to meet that SPECIAL other.

That’s where you and larry used to meet, so I understand your nostalgia. Of course, Frank had a tear in his eye, because he was laughing his ass off at your boyfriend being caught, finally.

Since he can’t survive a primary battle…………They love him there.

The jet is refueled and ready to go to Boise.

But the big question is, will the voters in constituent districts across the country learn one final lesson from Senator Larry Craig?

The Rovian political strategy has been to beat the bushes of the extreme right wing moralists for the votes that will put them in office. Thus their candidates have been forced to play into the fear mongering; the Gay Agenda, children and families threatened with extinction by ‘The Liberals,’ Special Rights, thinly veiled racism (the blacks are gonna take our white women), teaching our children to have indiscriminate sex…. and then forcing them to have abortions…. It goes on and on. The morality issues are endless and endlessly disingenuous.

Candidates are forced to adopt these issues as their own moral and political stands. Even though few really believe in these extreme positions or that their viewpoint must be applicable to all citizens by law. It is, simply, their route to political power. This is NOT public service or statesmanship!

Idahoans deserve (as do we all) elected officials who are competent, ethical, honest, and intelligent LEADERS. Senator Craig falls far short on all counts.

Craig is a liar, a deceiver and a hypocrite. Hypocrisy IS lying. Preaching one thing and living another. Craig lied to himself, his wife and family, his Senate colleagues, his party, and his constituents. He has violated both his oath of service and his marital vows. He committed ADULTERY by having sex in the rest room at Union Station in Washington. And he lied in his public statement regarding his activity in the Minneapolis airport; SOLICITATION for sex in a public place IS a criminal act. Craig said he did nothing wrong.

Perhaps Craig was entrapped in Minneapolis. In my opinion a young, an attractive police officer set up in a rest room stall, laying in wait for the next target, is entrapment. But Craig showed his ignorance and lack of intelligence. Bloggers who have said that Craig was thoroughly familiar with the Tea Room cruising techniques are thoroughly wrong. Craig certainly knew the ‘come on’ signals…. but was totally ignorant of (or ignored) the ‘response’ signals (or in the case the lack of response signals). His insistent attempts to entice the officer without receiving the appropriate, agreeable, response got him into trouble, and arrested.

Compounding and reinforcing his lack of intelligence, after his arrest he engaged the officer in a debate and further implicated and incriminated himself. He couldn’t keep his mouth shut and get a lawyer. That failure was arrogance as much as embarrassment. He should have called Foley’s attorney in Florida. He immediately and effectively removed Foley from public contact and contact with police investigators. Craig went even further in hanging himself by promptly holding a public press conference (with poor Suzanne Craig in tow) to humiliate himself again.

But Idaho voters got what they asked for. They allowed themselves to be stampeded into voting for a false, emotional political dogma rather than seeking out and learning what truth, integrity and honesty looks like. So can voters get past the knee-jerk reactions and develop a reasoned, intelligent and informed electorate? Can we learn one final lesson from Senator Larry Craig?
