Indignant that Craig had short-circuited their gleeful gay-baiting, liberals quickly switched to a new set of talking points. In the blink of an eye, they went from calling Craig a "deviant" to attacking Republicans for not insisting that Craig stay.

I called that one in mid-switch. The local librul rag (Lewiston, Idaho) featured a headline - a front-page HEADLINE, mind you - yesterday that read "ANALYSIS: GOP HAS NO STOMACH FOR SCANDAL". What we actually have here is hypocrisy all right - world-class, aching, vomit-inducing hypocrisy and a perfect willingness to slap any gay person on their own side down who strays from the plantation.

It comes as no particular surprise that the editorial board of the NY Times - the "Gay Mafia" in their very own terminology - has figured a way around all of this that only involves a complete sellout of whatever slender principles they might have had left. My guess is that after their usual fashion, the price was cheap.

What irks me the most in the affair is not that Craig was trolling for BJ's in a public crapper, but that he and the commentariat are just fine with the laws that got him as long as they don't have to obey them and the rest of us do. Did we hear a cry from the left that this was the entrapment of an innocent (gay) man under an unjust law? That's why we didn't.

What is most clarified by this affair is that one side has standards and the other perquisites. That divide has never been sharper or more disgraceful.

That's OK Ann, the libs got RINO Arlen Specter to say a few words of encouragement, and now Craig is talking of withdrawing the guilty verdict and being an Indian Giver with his pledge to resign.

Let the Field Day resume.

And there went MSNBC's fall program schedule.

No loss there...

Solid column up until the end:

If the charges against Craig are true -- and that is certainly in doubt....

Sorry, Ann - - the circumstantial evidence is mountainous. There is no doubt.

"I thought gays just wanted to get married to one another and settle down in the suburbs so they could visit each other in the hospital."

Ha! That line is perfect because it's what homosexual activists like to tell the masses in order to get them to support gay marriage.

I have not finished reading the article but I think I found the best quote of the piece -

If liberals were any happier, they'd be gay.

Ann Coulter, Laura Ingraham, Michelle Malkin, Pamela Geller. Great Americans and fine ladies each. If any of them ever ran for Congress or the White House, I’d vote for them in a NY minute.
