29. LOL!!! "Wide Stance Pants," too, I betcha...
:rofl:

I'm still getting a huge laugh out of my fond memories of all those arrogant, smug republi-CONS boasting and bragging how THEY know how to handle these issues. THEY know how to take care of this kind of problem swiftly and professionally, and put it behind them and MOVE FORWARD!!! They just absolutely had this handled and completed and taken care of, no muss, no fuss, no runs, drips (OY!!!!) OR errors. REAL professionals. REAL managerial, executive, uber-efficient, decisive types they were. Another one for the "Yeah, SUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUURE" file.

Yeah, you hypocritical schmucks sure know how to take care of these things! You're exceptionally good with that gum on your shoe problem.

:rofl:

3. As other GOP Senators plan an "accident" for the honorable
and wide spread Senator from the Great State of Idaho. If he had only committed adultery by fucking prostitutes like the family values David Vitter did everything would be alright.

6. Too funny. I'm getting a mental image of a
repuke goon squad kidnapping him and removing him from his Senate office out the back door bound and gagged and never to be heard from again. Apparently that's what it's going to take.

16. don't be so sure--now they'll have a public sacrifice
to show how bipartisan tough they are on gays and ethics violators. probably just in time for the election.

Republicans: acountability for some!

14. The best thing that could happen would be a Dem senator uttering these words
on the senate floor: "Would Senator Wide Stance care to engage in a colloquy?"

15. Hold that wide stance, Larry!

You're the gift that just keeps on giving. Be sure you appeal Judge Porter's decision while you're at it; keep tapping your toes for all that great publicity. And next time you change planes at MSP, check out what a great job they've done remodeling your favorite stall!

23. Everyone keeps saying 'wide stance'. Aren't those stalls rather small?
Or will the revamped ones be larger?

24. Larry's "defense" was that he maintained a "wide stance"
while sitting on the pot so his pants wouldn't fall down, and that's the only reason his foot bumped against the cop's shoe in the next stall.

:rofl:

I've only ever been in the ladies' room next door to the Craig Memorial Airport Loo, and the stalls are about average. In other words, you'd have to TRY to touch the foot of the person in the next stall. Wide stance. Right.

33. I don't think what he did was henious enough to cause him to step down
Seriously. It was way overblown. Pun intended (maybe).

Yes, he is a total f-ing douchebag GOP hypocrite, but I don't really care if he gets his jollies in the men's room in Minneapolis.

But I do like that he's keeping the story alive for a few more days.
