Nice that he propositioned an undercover cop for public sex, huh?   

[Parts]

They are the ones alway pushing for more of these type of sting operations serves them right to get caught up in one

[Christopher McCandless]

Theres nothing wrong with him having a bit of enjoyment, I suppose. I hope he found it was worth it.

[maldoror]

Wow, that's the lamest sex scandal ever. It makes Bill Clinton look like Ron Jeremy.

[Parts]

Little paranoid about the next election cycle don't ya think.  He was an idiot for pleading it out if he didn't do anything.

Hey, lots of cops are good man lovers.

I loved that his response to the cop busting him was to pull out his Senate ID and say, "What do you think about that, huh?"
Why is it so easy for these guys to think that power effaces all wrongs?

(Oh, wait--because it works too damned often!  )

[Janicka]

Yeah, that Senate ID card thing cracked me up.

I liked the cop's reaction better - "How could you do this?  People vote for you!"  Craig was sooooo

Yeah, gay marriage is right the hell out, that'd be the ruin of American society, but anonymous gay sex in public restrooms, well, that's just every Senator's right!

[SovaNu]

99% of all politicians suck.

It sounded like the GOP was pretty eager to get rid of him, though.

I really don't understand what the fuss is. George Michael did the same thing, and you don't hear people saying "George Michael how DAREEEEEEE you!" What Mark Foley did was far worse, and as I remember the consensus on his resignation was less unanimous and took much more time.

Yes, and I'm fairly certain this guy was trying to prove that.

if the politician in question was against gay marriage and then went and had gay sex then there's a huge fuss cuz he's a fuckin hypocrite.

what foley did was illegal and more importantly hurtful toward someone and should not be accepted, but hypocrits with power, aka that 99% of politicians are wrong and hurtful too. people who have influence and who have no inner guidance on right and wrong or human decency and fairness, are very damaging and should be removed.

What is more interesting from the "values party" is that the congressman from Louisiana that admitted to hiring prostitutes (Craig pled guilty to a lesser charge) has not received nearly this much scrutiny or naysayers from within his own party.

Exactly.
