He spent 10 days in jail already? Wow, it is a suprise we are just hearing about this...

The 10 days was "stayed" most likely "held" unless/until there was another related charge within the next year or some designated by the court time-frame. The fact that he pleaded guilty for this charge is the telling issue. He obviously felt culpable and believed he would have been convicted on the charge if it went to trial. While not compelled to do so he also would have had to testify in his own defense, and was reluctant to do so for whatever reasons. I can imagine the questions: "Have you ever had sex in a public restroom with another man?" etc.

I'm not entirely sure what was so gay about The Wizard Of Oz and neither was any gay person I ever asked.

How many have you asked? Just askin' here.

Wasn’t “Sea Bass” the trucker the one who was trolling in that film?

Four or five - I used to live in Seattle. Had plenty of gay friends, and most of them think public restroom sex is disgusting too.

Apparently, Craig has been reportedly having same sex affairs for years.

Thanks for the ping. It certainly was a carefully worded statement, wasn’t it?

I believe she may have hung out at the “gay” spots later in her life or maybe even peformed there or was friendly to homosexuals.

Her death in the late 60’s is linked with gay riots in New York.

I’m not saying that they guy is innocent, but I don’t think that his suspicious actions are enough for any kind of conviction. The man should have refused comment without a lawyer.

He pleaded guilty. Enough said.

I’m guessing the GI is just following orders from his CO. After all, someone has to volunteer to be photographed with the Senator. My guess? No volunteers, so they drew straws.

Craig is married and has three adopted children from his wife’s previous marriage.
This was a part of his Wikipedia entry:
“According to CNN and NNDB On 17 October 2006, gay activist Mike Rogers wrote on his blog, “I have done extensive research into this case, including trips to the Pacific Northwest to meet with men who have say they have physical relations with the Senator. I have also met with a man here in Washington, D.C., who says the same — and that these incidents occurred in the bathrooms of Union Station. None of these men know each other, or knew that I was talking to others. They all reported similar personal characteristics about the Senator, which lead me to believe, beyond any doubt, that their stories are valid.”

I don’t even recognize the name.. Is this a U.S. Senator?

Senator Larry Craig (R-ID) has been an ID Senator for several terms, and has also been on the NRA board of directors for several years. He's one of the staunchest defenders of 2nd Amendment rights in either house of Congress, and has been responsible for stopping quire a few antigun bills before they got to the Senate floor. I would really hate to know that he's a homo IF this report is legit.

Personally, I wouldn't put it past his bitter enemies in the gun-grabbing crowd to set him up with the help of liberal, anti-gun Minneapolis city officials and a paid off cop. This incident will probably end his career in the Senate whether it was a good arrest or not. I believe that the anti-gunners would have had him "accidentally" killed years ago if they thought they could get away with it. Even if the incident went down like it was reported, given his great value to the pro-gun cause and conservative issues of all kinds I would still support him for the Senate if I lived in ID. The one sure thing that will cause me to drop any politician no matter how valuable he or she is to conservative, pro-gun, pro-life, pro-national defense causes is for he or she to vote for a pro-abortion bill or otherwise support the abortion mill industry.

With democrats it’s a PLUS to be named a homosexual and to try and have sex in a bathroom.

Wizard of Oz is THE favorite gay movie of all time,just like Over the Rainbow is the unofficial Gay theme song.
How do I KNOW this?I used to live a block away from Castro and Market St in SF from 1973-1979,so I became very familiar with the whole”gay thing”When Wizard would play at The Castro Theatre occasionally,the place was packed.Liza Minelli even appeared there a few times and the gay crowd went bonkers in tribute of her mom.
Oh,and to all you cynics out there,I was with a WOMAN during that whole mad adventure in San Fran.So keep your nasty thoughts to yourself!
