All that said, I have never even remotely come close to my foot touching the foot of a guy in the next stall. I'm sure most people's universal experience in this regard helped sink Craig. It just doesn't happen - accidentally.

I think I speak for all of us guys who can honestly say that if some dude's foot touched mine intentionally and repeatedly in the men's room, the next place he would find his foot is up his ass.

"Nah, nobody even knows who he is. He's only important in his own mind".

That is a really well thought out argument to a hypothetical question

Let’s face it, if most of us, even US Senators were in a bathroom and our foot hit somebody, we’re not going to plead guilty to anything. It was his embarrassment over what was really going on that caused him to plea and flee. I think his statement to the officer “You entrapped me” or “You solicited me” was devastating. You don’t get solicited or entrapped into accidentally hitting someone with your foot.

As I said on another thread, my assemblywoman, elected by conservative Republicans in NYS, stood up and made a passionate speech begging for the passage of the gay marriage amendment because her son is gay. Who is the bigger hypocrite? A senator who represents his constituents despite his own possible proclivities or one who works against the desires of his or her constituents?

You’ve got NO proof whatsoever. After listening to the tape and reading the transcript...I can’t believe people have been so easily sucked  in.

 Craig gone.  Don't let the stall door hit you in your well reamed rear end.

 

Would someone tap feet with that scumbag from my state please.  Someone please go tap toes with Lugar.  The quicker he is gone, the better.

Thanks, Cam- you restore my faith in the existence of Conservative females—hard to come by in Mass.

You are a sucker like anyone else buying Larry Craig’s “I’m really innocent” whinings now that it’s all over the news.

Yeah, OJ was innocent too.

Probably not what he was hoping for.

Senator Craig needs to give it up. The governor needs to appoint a replacement already!

I can’t believe people want this loser to hang on. He is bringing down the party. The sooner we are rid of him the better. Even if he wasn’t guilty, his judgement is awful and not worthy of a US senator.

Good one!
I don’t know what the arresting officer’s normal procedures are ...
but he should have “frisked” him for weapons prior to being brought in for booking...

Not always. Take a look at Macranger's articles on all this, former Army Ranger and vice cop...he thinks this cop was way out of line. MACSMIND

It's like all the johns who get busted on COPS in prostitution stings. None of them were REALLY looking for sex.

Plus, why was the guy who “remembered” an event with Craig silhouetted with his voice altered?

What’s really disgusting is how people like Craig have their family stand next to them during their conferences. Have they no shame?

His children were on one of the morning shows this morning. Yuk. Thanks dad.

We need DFU to pen out some lyrics to “Tap Tap Tappin’ On The Toilet Floor” to “Knock Knock Knockin’ on Heaven’s Door” by, I believe, Bob Dylan.

A complete set-up....probably one of Larry Flint’s buddies. If you call that proof...oh please...

You are right...most people in the private sector would choose that path. This guy has a lot to lose. Take it to trial...major media. Probably would have been forced to resign either way.

It seems to be a lose, lose either way. Perhaps he tried to make a calculated decision. As I stated earlier, I am not trying to defend him. It is indeed a great way to set someone up though. No?
