Sen. I-Don't-Know Craig from Idaho

One day, not so long ago, a United States Senator, one of one hundred of the most significant legislators in this country, was busted for playing footsie with an undercover cop in an adjacent stall in an airport restroom. He pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor. When this was publicized, he was pressured by many of his colleagues, most, if not all, from his own party, to resign. He complied. Then he didn't. Then he vowed to resign if he could not get his guilty plea overturned. It wasn't and he didn't. He has now decided to finish his term and risk facing the "Ethics?" Committee in the Senate.

He protests that he is not gay. Gay Republicans, though rare, ARE more common than Conservative African-Americans on the Supreme Court. But do we really care? And, does it really matter?

He played footsie, perhaps, with the undercover cop in the next stall. Maybe it was a "gay signal"; maybe it was not. Does it really justify an arrest? Does it really justify a prolonged interrogation? It does not appear that any money was exchanged. It does not appear any offer was proffered. It certainly does not appear that any fluid exchange was even made or proffered! Nor does it appear any improper bodily parts were exposed. Just footsie!!!

So, how does one of the top one hundred legislators get himself arrested, interrogated, and plead guilty to such a weak and obviously unsupportable charge? How can he claim ignorance? How can he demonstrate such poor judgement? I REPEAT, he is one of the TOP ONE HUNDRED LEGISLATORS IN THE UNITED STATES. He is a LAWMAKER!!! This man cannot be ignorant of the law. The people of Idaho trust him to be a LAWMAKER!!! There is only one word for such a person. There is only one reason that the people of Idaho should feel betrayed. That word IS NOT GAY!!! That word is STUPID!!! After all, if the shoe fits......(regardless of what that shoe may be doing).....
