AP:

When tourists ask for the bathroom in the Minneapolis airport lately, it's usually not because they have to go.

It's because they want to see the stall made famous by U.S. Sen. Larry Craig's arrest in a sex sting.

Well, at least the Republicans at Faux censored Sally Field saying "God damn" about their war.

Um, I believe you mean "MALE Tourists flock to see bathroom. Isn't it illegal for one sex to enter the others bathroom?

Now there's a sting operation I'd like to see. C'mon government Protect me from these rapacious woman trying to get a glance of my ass. I guess that scenario can't really be used to frieghten heteros. So let's continue scapegoating gay people.

Gee, we certainly pick and choose what's an offense in this country.

Hey, the women used to enter the men's room at Lambeau Field all the time, since there were more men's, and it took them longer anyhoo. If you're a Green Bay fan, first of all you drink beer, and second, you will NOT miss the kickoff even if you have to cross into foreign territory.

The management got the message.

"Jon and Sally", according to the article, went sightseeing in a men's john??? What, I ask you, is the world coming to? Maybe Grey Line Tours in Minneapolis could include a crapper option.

Democrat Frank Church got one of the most beautiful stretches of river in North America named after him, " THE FRANK CHURCH RIVER of NO RETURN " , on the Salmon River , it only figures that Larry Craig the TERMINAL MAN , from Idaho will surely get a mens room named after him A MEMORIAL TO ALL MEN WITH A WIDE STANCE.

While we were discussing if this is a photo of MSP or not, this US troop had the honour to die for Kick Ass Bu$h:

Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered weak and weary,
Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore,
While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping,
As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door.
`'Tis some visitor,' I muttered, `tapping at my chamber door -
Only this, and nothing more.'

Looking at the picture for the first time, you've got to be a closeted faggot. Consider this---you lean all the way over with your left hand to the stall on right side to retrieve a piece of paper on the right side of the floor while "tapping" your right foot and running your wedding-ring finger along the bottom of the right dividing stall wall. "Wide stance" et al is no excuse. You are a homo seeking a quick tryst. Admit it and divorce your hetro wife.

Wow, your humanity is so overwhelming. The rest of us don't care that he's gay, we're offended at his hypocritical stance (extra-wide) against gay marriage and against gay rights. If we had a problem with gay men, Barney Frank would have left the party years ago.

Mister Ruben--According to Sgt. Karsnia, Sen. Craig lingered at the crack in the door for two minutes staring at Karsnia. It makes you seriously wonder what sort of show Karsnia may have been putting on.

I don't know the sign language of foot tapping and a hand under the divider, but you had a 29-year-old (Karsnia, who may or may not have fit the "pretty boy" stereotype) approached by a 62-year-old fellow probably dressed in a suit and tie. Who do you suppose would feel entitled to receive sexual services (a blow job, perhaps) from whom? My guess is that if the planned behavior were non-reciprocal, Sen. Craig would have been the receiver (the john) and Sgt. Karsnia would be the service-provider (hooker.)

If the restroom in the photo was the one they used, it seems they would have to agree to meet elsewhere in order perform the sex act/s. Unless, of course, the airport restroom was equipped with a "glory hole," which seems unlikely.

Straight and bisexual men are also known to engage in "quickies." Whatever else Sen. Craig's restroom dalliances signify, they do not constitute a "diagnosis" of "gay."

Of course, looking at the photo again, they could have agreed to get together in one stall for blow job/s. I'm told one guy will stand on the toilet so that only one pair of feet is visible to those in adjacent stalls. But it would be kind of difficult for the 62-year-old Craig to balance on a toilet seat, and with his luggage in the stall it would be crowded.

Somebody figured out there's major dollars to be made in preaching about the "good old days" of morality and upstanding citizenship. This much repression is bound to have major consequences in terms of outbursts of self-destructive and self-hating behavior.

Wow, it's ACTUALLY pretty narrow in those stalls. And the side walls are awfully low. May help to bolster Larry's case.

Ammobob is merely using his eyes to examine the photo. He's got a point. The only problem is we don't know for sure if it's the restroom in question that is featured in the photo.
