3. I Don't Know Which Hypocrisy Is Greater
The hypocrisy of Larry Craig denying he was gay to get elected and then voting against the interest of gays or the hypocrisy of the Republicans who knew he was gay for decades and supporting him until he was discovered and then summarily throwing him under the bus...

I'm glad I'm not a politician...

4. He deserves to be thrown under the bus
He's one of the kings of hypocrisy. Am I going to come out and defend this vicious asshole? No thank you.

2. Sounds like his colleagues are throwing him under the bus.
It's the compassionate conservative way.
