I am going to puke if I hear one more apologist defend Larry Craig.

Let me get this straight...

Ben Stein and all other idiotic apologists want me to believe that a United States Senator, a person with ambition, drive, money, determination and political savvy, gets railroaded on a false charge and PLEADS GUILTLY, DOESN’T CALL HIS LAWYER AND FIGHT THE FALSE CHARGE.

Give me a break!

I am Joe Nobody, and if some cop cuffed me for homosexual solicitation, I would be screaming bloody murder. I would be screaming, “Just try to prove that I have ever done anything even remotely interpreted as a homosexual act or innuendo!”. I would be spitting blood, holding news conferences, calling for a full investigation of police corruption, etc.

This reminds me of OJ murdering his wife. He claimed he was innocent but there were no tears, no outrage, no “I want her killers head on a platter!” Nothing.

Craig is guilty as hell and all apologists are delusional. Aren’t most Senators also lawyers? Aenators are among the most influential, ambitious, egotistical, power hungry, confrontational people you are going to find on the planet, and all you apologists want me to believe that a person like that would plead guilty to a COMPLETELY FALSE ACCUSATION RUINING THEIR REPUTATION AND BESMIRCHING THEM A HOMOSEXUAL when they are innocent and are not a homosexual.

Please. He is guilty as hell. Don’t be a schmuck. Senators DON’T plead guilty when they aren’t.

So nobody pleads when not guilty?

BTW, why do you think you don’t have ambition, drive, money, determination and political savviness?

You have two choices. Cuba or North Korea, as you can’t seem to love the constitution of the US.

If you want to know how stupid Larry Craig appears to be, there’s a tape now that is supposedly Larry Craig leaving a message for his lawyer on an answering machine, only he DIALED THE WRONG NUMBER.

I fully agree: he should not have pled guilty. Now that he did, he's guilty. Certainly he's guilty of being an idiot. For that reason he should resign and fade away.

But he should not have been arrested for tapping his toe, nudging, waving his hand, etc. That's lunacy: a frightening overreach of police authority, and a wholesale misplacement of police priorities. As a taxpayer, I'm outraged that we're paying this cop to sit in stalls and nail sixty-somethings who tap their toes.
