Conservatives DUMP Senator Larry Craig, for sticking fingers under a bathroom stall wall.

Posted on 08/30/2007 7:50:09 PM PDT by pacificus

I read the transcript of the Larry Graig interview with the Minnesota police.

I don't like what I'm hearing from other conservatives. The liberals see a cheap Senate seat and you want to give it to them because a guy moved two fingers under the stall wall in an airport bathroom.

If they had the guy on tape asking for sex, paying for sex, or photographed in the act, or any other physical proof, then I would say that looks very very bad and he should go.

But that is not the case.

This is very lame, and those of you who have never had a disagreement with a law enforecement officer should hope that a cop never accuses you of something. Because by your own action, your professional career, and or political career, should be forit, merely on the word of the officer with no physical proof or corroborating evidence.

Those of you who pass judgement, on Larry Craig, merely on the heresay and liberal spin that has been run in the press, should be ashamed.

I think you are correct. Also, the whole business card business is revolting.

Idaho Sen. Larry Craig Denies Allegations of Same-Sex Affairs
http://tinyurl.com/y7k5t2

Sen. Larry Craig (R-Idaho) has been publicly denying assertions that he’s gay since at least 1982, when a whisper campaign implicated him in a House page scandal.

Being a "law and order" kind of woman, I used to always believe whatever police, prosecutors said. Having witnessed the attempted lynching of the Duke Lacrosse players, invasion of private medical records of Rush Limbaugh and political witch hunt on Tom DeLay, I no longer step forward to assume guilt without proof!

Having listed to the tape of the officer in question with Mr. Craig, it sure did sound as if that officer had a bit of an axe to grind along with complete lack of professionalism with his questions.

Having nothing more than that to go on, I'd have to vote against lynching Mr. Craig just yet. Especially, having witnessed what getting rid of that guy in FL, the dims will champion "party of corruption and lack of morals" regardless.

Here's a couple of clues, help yourself. Look at the other threads the series of behavior. I guess it's all a conspiracy and the cop was soliciting him. Ahnother conspirator picking on ourt hero. Stupid me!

I heard the cops statement when he was interviewed. The guy was looking thorugh the crack into the occupied stall for a period of time. When's the last time you sustained contact with someone who was behind a door sitting on a toilet in the men's room?

When you grow older and get around more, you'll know more about what people will do.

It’s a case of “Where there’s smoke, there’s fire”.

“I consider honor an issue and I would fight for mine. Why wouldn’t Larry Craig fight for his? Why did he surrender like a p’tak and take it lying down? Someone who has honor will do all that is necessary to defend it.”

Especially when EVERY Republican knows they are under attack. His first reaction should have been an atty. And the cop telling him he wasn’t going to inform the media, puleeeeeeease!

I heard the tape, and it sounded like the cop was being honest. He even sounded like he was ashamed for the senator, who just kept making excuses.

Come on senator, just come out already and quit lying you us, your wife, and your self.

You really should hear what Levin said from his own lips, at marklevinshow.com, rather than snippets posted by others.

According to one cop's word.

Go ahead...believe the whole story and unseat a Senator on the strength of one cop's word.

That's real immaturity.

“Take it from me, I live in MA. I know what it’s like to live with a disgrace of a senator!”

You poor slob... I used to live in Westfield, but then I got my chance to leave the “Gay State” — Fagachusetts.

I left my shoes behind so I would not take the dirt with me.

You should leave that hopeless bastion of perversion for red country.

I’ll wager when Kennedy dies, the scum in Boston will put his carcass on display in the Museum of Science—they won’t even have to embalm him, since he is already pickled. Maybe they could stuff him and place his fat ass on permanent guard duty at the Chappaquiddick bridge... BWAH-HAW-HAW.

As for Kerry... he’ll probably petrify before he actually assumes room temperature, since he has no blood in his veins to begin with. He would not even require embalming... Maybe Terizzzza will just gag him, strap him into his car, and drive his worthless butt into the Charles River.

I just wish he had had the balls to just admit he was gay...instead of staying in the closet. Then the dumassocrats would think of him just as “another Barney Frank”.

Craig is no naive novice. He knows that a GOP senator must be above suspicion on moral issues. After having been accused he put himself in a position where he even acknowledged the presence of another person in the stall next to him raises too many questions.

I started by saying it was a pattern. Wake up and smell the coffee! I'll leave you to your denial. We have people who have killed, stolen, lied, had prostitution in their homes and God knows what else in the congress. I guess a bathroom cruiser will just add to the diversity.

Say whatever you want, I'm out.

Why did the Senator hand the cop a business card and ask, “What do you think of that?” then? You’re just asking for trouble. If you initiate aggression and arrogance, you have to expect 2-3 times the aggression and arrogance back in return.

So what you are saying, A liberal police chief in Minnesota, got a liberal cop to start staking out bathrooms in the Airport in order to entrap a Republican Politician, who’s been fending off gay rumors for quite some time (who knows there might be more than one). Then the liberal undercover officer lies -wait, that’s too far fetched - how about they created a mind control device which forces straight conservative men to go to public bathrooms well known for cruising and have them behave in a gay coded manner for “Let’s have sex.” The diabolical liberal cops and prosecutor offer him a sweet plea deal knowing he’ll then accept it, because no straight man who’s fighting off rumors he’s gay will want to even deal with this at all. And of course, instead of keeping this all concealed and private, the liberal courts make it a matter of public record three months after the fact.

It all makes sense now.

Of course I believe him. He was just picking up used toilet paper. Doesn’t everyone do that in public restrooms?

thank you! i had been saying that since his recent conduct has allowed me to see his other less-than-conservative positions.

plus, he's guilty in this incident, imho. some guy taps my foot in the next stall and all he does is reach down for a piece of toilet paper? with his opposite hand? how stupid does he think we are?

If you did, would it warrant you losing your job,

If you are a US Senator, yes.

OMG. I googled for comments about gay sex in Minneapolis airport bathrooms and found a disgusting site (my own fault). I have to go wash my eyes out now.

“Minneapolis (08/28/2007)

Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport. Cruisy toilet by the shoeshine, on the back side of the ticket counters. Add Comments “Well, everyone better take heed. The Senator got busted there too — allegedly tapping his foot got him busted. So if you use this bathroom don’t be tapping your feet. Better stay out for a long while for it to cool off!”

Minneapolis (08/28/2007)

Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport. Cruisy toilet by the shoeshine, on the back side of the ticket counters. Add Comments “So now Idaho Senator Larry Craig has been arrested in this toilet. I’ve been horny in this toilet. The injustice here is that most of the patrons cruising there look like Craig. Meanwhile, the arresting officer is hunky enough to inspire innocent guys to tap their feet and hope.”

Minneapolis (08/28/2007)

Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport. Cruisy toilet by the shoeshine, on the back side of the ticket counters. Add Comments “Now officially known as the Senator Larry Craig Memorial T-Room after his arrest here in June. Now if he had just read all the reports of busts here on CFS he might have avoided all of this!””
