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.

While I am very skeptical of the law enforcement's allegations against him, those are some very good points and questions. I believe he may very well be innocent, but he should have never plead guilty just to get it out of the way. Of course, by listening to the tape, the cop made it sound like if he would only plead guilty it would be all over and forgotten about just by paying a fine. At the same time, the senator should have realized that in their line of work, especially having an 'R' in their job title, brings a different standard with the media and the public in general.

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!
