2. He's standing tall, he's standing proud, he's got a wide stance!
I can't even imagine the level of cluelessness one must possess to be Sen. Craig. :-) MKJ

5. The Senate will vote him a separate restroom. He'll sponsor a bill to assess fines ...
... against airlines flying with malfunctioning lavatories, forcing passengers to use airport facilities to the point they're so crowded that patrons must share cubicles and restrooms outside the security gates are all that are available.

:silly:

11. At this point in the jumble I'd like to see Senator Craig hold a
big to-do news conference in which he would say, in effect, "Yeah, I'm gay. What's more, I'm not ashamed of it, and if you are the sort of voter who tries to make me feel shame for who I am, I don't want your vote in the first place. What shame I have is for the numerous times I voted against women and men who were on the spectrum of LGBTQ and did so without my true head or my true heart, and I'm sorry for those votes and wish i could take them back."

If Craig did that, which he certainly will not, he'd at least be square with me. Still wouldn't get my vote but at least he'd reset the screen.
