Yep, yet another family values Republican gets outed, this time much more publicly and in a way that goes far beyond mere rumor. Back in October, 2006, Mike Rogers outed Craig on Blog Active. Perhaps this time the larger media will pay attention to yet another case of GOP hypocrisy. I have been unable to link to the Roll Call Story(http://www.rollcall.com/issues/1_1/breakingnews/19763-1.html) - probably because the server is going into melt down from hits - so I am quoting from part of Wonkette's coverage. I don't know about you, but if had been innocent, I do not think I would have coped a plea. Here's highlights from Wonkette:Last June, Larry Craig, the Senator who was publicly outed to absolutely no ensuing scandal, was arrested for “lewd conduct” in a men’s room at the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport. He pleaded guilty on August 8, paid $500, got out of the 10-day jail sentence, and was given a year of probation. His office referred to the incident — and this is all from Roll Call so you can’t accuse us of making this bizarre quote up — as a “he said/he said misunderstanding.” They claim they’ll explain what they mean by this later today, when they come up with a convincing lie.
You see, it was all just a simple he said/he said misunderstanding! Because Larry Craig was under the impression that the other gentleman wanted to have anonymous sex with him in an airport bathroom. To be honest, we feel bad for poor Larry Craig — the cop didn’t even give him time to whip it out! Dude shoulda fought the case! Because we would’ve liked to have seen this drawn out as long as possible.

First Allen, now Craig....
These married republicans just can't seem to resist the lure of men's room sex!
We are, of course going to hear another denial.
Stay tuned~
