Mark Steyn: There were two creeps in the men's room

The catchphrase of America's famous cowboy humorist Will Rogers was "Never met a man I didn't like." Judging from the activities at the men's room of the Will Rogers Memorial Park in Beverly Hills, many of the patrons of said facility evidently feel the same way. George Michael, the stubbly boy rocker of the Eighties, was arrested therein for attempting to play footsie with an undercover cop. "Guilty feet have got no rhythm," as George famously observed on his hit song "Careless Whisper." After pleading no contest, he subsequently made a rock video mocking the arresting officer, with George prancing around in police uniform twirling his night stick

My favorite line:

The left gives the impression that a Republican senator caught in a whorehouse ought immediately to say, "You're right. I should have supported earmarks for hookers in the 2005 appropriations bill."

It’s a filthy, dirty, disgusting job but thank God someone is willing to do it!

It doesn’t sound like a great line of work, but I’m glad someone does it. I’ve got two sons that have to use public restrooms.

You've got it right and I'm glad too. The innocent have nothing to worry about. The depraved should be very very afraid.

Great, as always. Sounds like the cop enjoys his work a little too much.

So you’re calling Steyn a homo because he walked by the bathroom? That’s really reaching.

Really, what we just did to Craig, the Republican Party, is why we’ll never achieve anything of importance ever again.

There was a reason Reagan had an 11th commandment. The Dems have our number, they know our note and they play us all day long, and we keep dancing for them right on que.

Who is our champian message carrier? What’s our message??? We’re so done. Whose next to cut loose? Hope God has my back, because I sure don’t need anyone in the Republican party watching mine.

It’s the Kool Aid drinkers of the party such as yourself that will be the end of the Republicans...

The Ronald Reagan law did have a disclaimer of NOT supporting those that broke the previous 10 commandments, especially poofing in public.

I have three small boys and if one of these round mouths makes a sound or motion above a fart, they better watch out, cause no stall door is gonna keep me out.

In San Francisco, the cop would have been fired for being such a meanie. Especially if he did not put out. Here, the Mayor is bi (everyone thought he was a straight gay until he was caught boffing a friend’s wife, so he is now viewed as a bi-gay (as opposed to bengay).

In San Francisco, we can’t put 100,000 cops on the street, but we can put 100,000 gays on the street.

Craig didn’t have to resign. He could have simply switched to the Dem Party. Such behavior and a lot more is celebrated in the Dem Party.

One can only wonder what the potty patrolman would have thought had he seen me enter an airport restroom with my parrot a few years ago. I was replacing the paper towels at the bottom of her carrier. (Yeah, that’s it. That’s what I was doing, officer...)

Of course, I had been stopped once with my parrot going through the x-ray machine at the airport. The security screener insisted I take my bird out of her carrier so he could inspect the bottom of it (the bottom of it is the aforementioned paper towels and the bird poop they catch which looked rather evident to me). I suggested that perhaps he might wish to do a full cavity search of the parrot just to be sure she wasn’t carrying any explosives. This idea was met with scowls.

Notice how most airport terminals have extremely high ceilings. It is certainly not the sort of place one should let out a bird unless the wings have been clipped or the airport might gain a new permanent resident. Fortunately, my bird simply climbed up on my shoulder to watch the odd proceedings and my only challenge was to coax her back into the carrier. We made our flight but I would have been quite angry if I had missed it over something like this.

Donning tinfoil hat:

Has anyone else noticed that this story has taken the Hillary!/Hsu story off the front page? This incident happened in June. The timing is suspect...

The reason that the demoncraps have our number is because we put it on our calling card.

Republicans are the party of family, conservative values, Mom, apple pie, and Chevrolet.

The demoncraps play us like a fiddle because we give them the ammo. Everyone knew Craig was a little light in the loafers and they looked the other way. The Republicans in Washington care about values no more than the demoncraps do.

Power is what all of these bastards crave. I no longer associate myself with either party. I am just patiently waiting until the masses finally wise up and adopt a tar and feather mentality. Then will be when we reclaim the Republic for our own.

Bingo!

The choice is either A) sting operations or B) letting public accomodations be turned into open brothels.

What’s even creepier than the cop’s behavior is having public places turned into homosexual trysting grounds. I don’t care what they do as long as they don’t do it in the road and scare the horses. Only male homosexuals do this habitually and flagrantly.

I agree with Steyn on this. While Craig clearly leads a double life and gets his kicks in public mens rooms (and needs to go away back to Idaho because of it), the cop was a real jerk too. In my opinion, he entrapped Craig and got torqued off at Craig’s feeble denials. He needs to go away too.

Similar to the Foley farce at the midterm election,
the Bush DWI story in election 2000,
the attempted Bush Air National Guard fiasco in ‘04....

The media should be prosecuted.
