A press release just out from Sen. Larry Craig (R-ID):

Craig Reacts to Petraeus, Crocker Testimony General, Ambassador paint picture of progress in Iraq

BOISE, ID - General Petraeus and U.S. Ambassador to Iraq Ryan Crocker testified before the Senate Armed Services and Foreign Relations committees today regarding the troop surge in Iraq.

"I was pleased to hear the forthright testimony before Senate committees today by General Petraeus and Ambassador Ryan Crocker regarding the status of U.S. and coalition efforts in Iraq," said Idaho Senator Larry Craig.

"Unfortunately, many were quick to prejudge the surge, as well as the testimony of General Petraeus and Ambassador Crocker," Craig continued. "However, I believe their testimony told a positive story. Our soldiers are making progress on the ground to provide breathing room for the Iraqi government, and we have seen a significant decrease in violence across the country, and most importantly, in Baghdad. That being said, the Iraqi government must stand up and prove to their people that they can govern and secure their country from violence."

What is up? I am impressed that The Good Senator from Idaho got off the Baloney Pony long enough to comment on that Potemkin Town Hall Meeting we were subjected to over the last two days. Given his penchant for ignoring reality, maybe Senator Craig could run for Mayor of Potemkin after he gets run from the Senate.

Man can't you hear Petreaus saying 'get off my side'. Larry is going to get shouted down for the rest of his stay in the Senate, he should just shut up! But its great he's not.

what a defiant, crazy queen. Not only does he expect us to SWALLOW his OWN personal lies, but he thinks he has the power to persuade us to swallow someone in the next stall's lies, too.

the only press release Craig needs to release is the one that says 'i resing'. he needs to realize, he's not the generals type.

He didn't say this. He tapped it out in Morse Code.

Shut up Craig. Nobody cares what you think anymore. Nobody ever did care you think about anything.

Thank you.

Ya know how Coulter and Hannity have dismissed Mitt Romney's liberal past positions to assure the Christian Reich, that he just was foolin' all those dumb MA liberals to get elected.

Yeah queers did the same thing with Larry in Idaho, and you dumb f*cks never had a clue.

Idahoans I pity you. For 25 years you've been re-electing this moron. Are you awake yet? Now that this idiot is making news for everything he says is there any chance you want to rethink those votes that kept him in public office for so long?

Larry, do us liberals a favor and just keep talking. You are truly priceless to making sure the next president is not a Republican.

This bathroom scum is still around, time to get the bleach to wash away this filth. He is so repulsive I can't figure out why his wife is still with him, he is finished.

Isnt this prime material for Jay Leno and the night show commedians? "Latrine Larry" plays the bitch role and General Petraeus plays the Bull role.

Many very funny routines could be written. For example: The General got his purple heart in a mens room at the Pentagon. or The General has a special pair of combat fatigues made for 'quickies'. The routines are endless.

How do you know when the General goes to the bathroom? Toilet Troll Craig visits secret lover in the green zone. Whats that third ribbon on the right for General?

A month ago, my first question would be "Who the f--- is Larry Craig?", now it's "Why the f--- do we care what Larry Craig thinks?" Seriously, the man gets busted on a misdemeanor because he might not be gay and now anything he says is newsworthy? I don't think so.

Really - you think a person would know when it was time to shut the f@#k up.

If I were a four star general with all the decorations on both chests General Petraeus has, I would be very unconfortable having 'Latrine Larry' praise me.

A real macho guy like General Petraeus is supposed to be does not ordinarially get the praise of fags. How is General P going to face his macho US troops if they find out that a mens room queer is taking a liking to him?
