"The Nation Guard? I have a medical discharge, based on MY FEET."

Does it ever get any more hilarious than that?

Their performance was Clintonesque to say the least. Just two smiling people, lying their asses off, that's all.

Did you see all of those family pic's? It was hard to make out Laeur and the Craigs. Especially, because of the ones in the foreground.

The real question to Craig shouldn't be are you gay or bi. It should be have you ever given or had fellatio? I bet Craig has his wife dress up in a suit and tie and then go down on him.

Craig or no, perhaps a more important aspect of this mess deals with the two Minnesota statutes used to "trap" or police the men's room at the airport. The two statutues on their face do not fit the facts of the Craig case.
Sure, he's a typical republican closet case.
But cities and airports must police their airports of deviants, panhandlers, religious freaks etc...and they need to do it with clear and precise criminal statues so that the criminal offense meets due process standards.
Minneapolis and its airport need to import some capable criminal attorneys to show them how to draft legislation that, properly, fits the Craig case.
On the law, Craig's appeal should be allowed and his case dismissed. One cannot plead guilty to a statute that he has not violated on the facts.

Who wants this lying, devious man making laws that govern their lives? He is a sick and pathetic creature who certainly does not deserve to sit on the US Senate.

If Matt Lauer was a good reporter he would have asked the burning question everyone wants to know ie: Matt Lauer " Senator let's get down to brass tacks , what the whole country want know is, as Al Pacino so eleoquently asked in "Cruising," which do you perfer, "Lips or hips" ???

What keeps getting lost in the Sen. Larry Craig debate is this:

The US Senate is entrusted with awesome power. Each senator has extraordinary influence over the US Government. Access to secrets, both legitimately and otherwise.

Confronted with a personal crisis that took place within the criminal justice system, with two months to consider this decision before formally entering his plea, the Senator now asks our sympathy in having chosen, he says,

1) not to have solicited anyone else's advice

2) to try to cover it up, by

3) lying under oath by entering what he now claims was a false plea.

Forget about hypocrisy. Forget about his apparently pathetic/bathetic double life. If what he's now saying his true, and he pleads with us to believe it is, his fitness for office is rendered nil because

1) a Senator who is so utterly isolated as to have no one he can trust with something as pathetic as a sex bust is

2) a huge security risk for his still-sky-high potential for blackmail, while revealing his character to be

3) so ethically and morally unfit as to be criminal.

Not to mention that lying about sex under oath is precisely what President Clinton was impeached for. And Sen. Craig voted to convict.

OK, I didn't totally forget about hypocrisy.

wonder if Mitch,Lindsay or some other dick breath rethuglicans watched the interview?-they got to be a little nervous right about now-

That was Tim Gunn, wasn't it? Maybe his twin brother? I suppose Gunn isn't gay either....

Senator Craig,

Hang it up dude!

You were caught, pleaded guilty, and were sentenced.

Nobody gives a rats ass whether you're straight, bye, or homosexual.

The problem people have with you is you are a lying political prick.

If you had come clean when you were caught you could have went into rehab for a couple of months and then emerged as a better Conservative.

But NO, you have to keep lying to yourself, your family, and everyone around you!

You will get what you deserve.

Troubled

Poor Larry. It's been his feet all along -- first in the Guard and then finally at the airport. And by now you could safely say he has put his foot in his mouth.

I refuse to watch this sleazy journalism. This type of interview serves no one! I'm taking Dateline off my TIVO list.

The question I kept waiting for Lauer to ask, and it never came, was why does Craig think there are rumors about his sexuality? There are many other senators and politicians that have voted against gay-rights issues, why him?
Is it the way he talks? His manner? Can he understand why people have a hard time believing him?

I never thought of this until now. But was the undercover cop a hot guy? He must have been or queen Craig wouldn't have gone to such lengths to get in his "stall".

Anyone seen pics of the undercover cop who busted queen Craig?

Yes, Craig is obviously a liar. He can't accept what he is (gay or bi-sexual)- so what, he has major issues! I didn't bother to watch the interview because the guy is creepy. Next time, some one will have him on tape.
