Larry Craig, the gift that keeps on giving! Now, I am assuming the guy really does know if he is guilty or not. The only alternative is, he is insane, which is unlikely.

Arlen Spector says he should fight the charges. WTF? How can you fight something you have already plead guilty to if you weren't coerced? Easy! Say you misspoke! Isn't that what they let Gonzales do?

Oh, we're sorry, we thought you knew if you were guilty or not. If you misspoke, then that changes everything!


NOT!

1. I can only think of one reason Craig is doing this. He's pi**ed that
none of his long time Pub friends stood with him and they just threw him under the bus. He now wants pay back time!

He CANNOT recind his guilty plea unless he can prove he was "forced to please guilty against his will", or "didn't understand the charge".

2. Arlan is a piece of shit. Anita Hill was a lying whore whereas
old Larry Craig's being framed (or what the hell ever).

I HATE ARLAN SPECTOR!!

3. Why would any politician make a guilty plea to such a charge
Edited on Wed Sep-05-07 09:45 AM by BridgeTheGap
if they really thought they were innocent? Craig says it was expedience - wanting it to go away.
Bull shit. He knew he had been caught. If he truly was innocent, he demonstrated very poor judgement in copping a guilty plea. He's just another g.o.p. liar.

5. You can't expect him to know the law after only 33 years in the Legislature.
:sarcasm:
