Larry Craig Arrested

With friends like this, who needs enemies? It’s worth noting that he’s on the NRA board of directors.

UPDATE:

“I could see Craig look through the crack in the door from his position. Craig would look down at his hands, ‘fidget’ with his fingers, and then look through the crack into my stall again. Craig would repeat this cycle for about two minutes,” the report states.

Craig then entered the stall next to Karsnia’s and placed his roller bag against the front of the stall door.

“My experience has shown that individuals engaging in lewd conduct use their bags to block the view from the front of their stall,” Karsnia stated in his report. “From my seated position, I could observe the shoes and ankles of Craig seated to the left of me.”

Craig was wearing dress pants with black dress shoes.

“At 1216 hours, Craig tapped his right foot. I recognized this as a signal used by persons wishing to engage in lewd conduct. Craig tapped his toes several times and moves his foot closer to my foot. I moved my foot up and down slowly. While this was occurring, the male in the stall to my right was still present. I could hear several unknown persons in the restroom that appeared to use the restroom for its intended use. The presence of others did not seem to deter Craig as he moved his right foot so that it touched the side of my left foot which was within my stall area,” the report states.

Craig then proceeded to swipe his hand under the stall divider several times, and Karsnia noted in his report that “I could … see Craig had a gold ring on his ring finger as his hand was on my side of the stall divider.”

Karsnia then held his police identification down by the floor so that Craig could see it.

“With my left hand near the floor, I pointed towards the exit. Craig responded, ‘No!’ I again pointed towards the exit. Craig exited the stall with his roller bags without flushing the toilet. … Craig said he would not go. I told Craig that he was under arrest, he had to go, and that I didn’t want to make a scene. Craig then left the restroom.”

I couldn’t make that up if I tried! It’s a well known fact that Snowflakes in Hell does not frown upon gays or their lifestyle choices, but we do frown upon gay life style choices that involve guy-on-senator sex in the stall of an airport restroom. Based on this report, it would appear Larry Craig is an old pro at men’s room gay encounters.

We also frown on this kind of maneuver:

Craig handed the plainclothes sergeant who arrested him a business card that identified him as a U.S. Senator and said, “What do you think about that?” the report states.

Kudos to the undercover officer for having the stones to haul his ass down to the station and process the arrest, as would have happened to any of us.

The real victim in all of this is, of course, Craig’s wife and family. I have to admit this all sounds very familiar, but I suppose at least Larry didn’t nominate his boy toy to a prominent anti-terrorism position, when he was by no means qualified.
