Sen. Larry Craig, R-Idaho is 62 years old; married has three children and is a granddad. pleaded guilty this month to misdemeanor disorderly conduct after being arrested at the Minneapolis airport.
A Hennepin County court docket showed Craig pleading guilty to the disorderly conduct charge Aug. 8, with the court dismissing a charge of gross misdemeanor interference to privacy.
Roll Call, a Capitol Hill newspaper, which first reported the case, said on its Web site Monday that Craig was arrested June 11 by a plainclothes officer investigating complaints of lewd conduct in a men's restroom at the airport.
Now the good Senator is having regrets that he plead guilty to the charges and is saying that the police misconstrued his actions.
Senator Larry Craig’s Actions:
According to the incident report, Sgt. Dave Karsnia was working as a plainclothes officer on June 11 investigating civilian complaints regarding sexual activity in the men’s public restroom in which Craig was arrested.The Senator is now being outed by gays (blackmailed) because his voting record doesn’t reflect his sexual proclivities.
Airport police previously had made numerous arrests in the men’s restroom of the Northstar Crossing in the Lindbergh Terminal in connection with sexual activity.
Karsnia entered the bathroom at noon that day and about 13 minutes after taking a seat in a stall, he stated he could see “an older white male with grey hair standing outside my stall.”
The man, who lingered in front of the stall for two minutes, was later identified as Craig.
“I could see Craig look through the crack in the door from his position. Craig would look down at his hands, ‘fidget’ with his fingers, and then look through the crack into my stall again. Craig would repeat this cycle for about two minutes,” the report states.
Craig then entered the stall next to Karsnia’s and placed his roller bag against the front of the stall door.
“My experience has shown that individuals engaging in lewd conduct use their bags to block the view from the front of their stall,” Karsnia stated in his report. “From my seated position, I could observe the shoes and ankles of Craig seated to the left of me.”
Craig was wearing dress pants with black dress shoes.
“At 1216 hours, Craig tapped his right foot. I recognized this as a signal used by persons wishing to engage in lewd conduct. Craig tapped his toes several times and moves his foot closer to my foot. I moved my foot up and down slowly. While this was occurring, the male in the stall to my right was still present. I could hear several unknown persons in the restroom that appeared to use the restroom for its intended use. The presence of others did not seem to deter Craig as he moved his right foot so that it touched the side of my left foot which was within my stall area,” the report states.
Craig then proceeded to swipe his hand under the stall divider several times, and Karsnia noted in his report that “I could ... see Craig had a gold ring on his ring finger as his hand was on my side of the stall divider.”
Apparently if you are gay( as the Senator is suspected to be) you are expected to vote in line with what 2-4% of the United States population who are gay and who want Senatorial votes against the Federal Marriage Amendment, against Don't Ask Don't Tell, and against the Defense of Marriage Act. If one is gay and one is an elected Senator or Congressman you are expected to goosestep along with the rest of the politically correct homosexual agenda.
Finally, like Mike Foley Senator Larry Craig must resign! He has betrayed his sacred trust with the American people and the voters of Idaho. In addition to that, Senator Craig has exposed himself to radical fringe groups that are attempting to push their agenda on the America people one sick bathroom stocking perverted Senator or Congressman at a time.
Senator Craig obviously doesn’t have the moral turpitude to resign the Senate fortunately the people of Idaho can rid the government and the citizens of this country of this scourge by voting Senator Craig out of office in 2008. Senator Craig is an ex-Senator walking and deservingly so!
Oh well,
ReplyDeleteI hope that nasty old bastards career does go down the toilet. Who cares whether he's gay or not?. Just the act of being a bathroom predator deserves his being booted from office immediately!.
Using a public restroom is bad enough, but it's going too far when someone can't even take a crap in peace.
Maybe the honorable senator should be referred to as "The Human Fly" seeing as how he appears to like the smell of crap, and bothering people as well.
ReplyDeleteThis is a prime example of the stupidity of the Republican Party, and the cause of their sudden downfall.
ReplyDeleteYou would think that being in the public eye would make these Congressmen aware that the opposition is watching very closely.. and just waiting for the opportunity to swoop in and start investigations.
No argument that what he did was wrong, never should have happened. But jeeeeeeeezzzzzz, I am sure that there are dozens of Democrats, etc. who have the same sleezy incidents in their past. He just happened to be the stupid shit who got caught.
