Remember how Senator Larry, "Wide Stance" Craig claimed he, "regrets" that he pled guilty to lewd contact in a public restroom? Well now apparently he might now be saying, "I regret resigning." He left this following message on the wrong cell phone:Arlen Specter is now willing to come out in my defense, arguing that it appears, by all that he knows, that I’ve been railroaded and all of that. Having all of that, we’ve reshaped my statement a little bit to say it is my ‘intent’ to resign on Sept. 30.
One GOP aide stated to Politico that Craig's indecision on resignation "defies reality." The aide went on:
"You can't make this up even if you are heavily medicated. The American people heard from Larry Craig that he would resign, and using the word 'intent' as a back door doesn't work with them."
GOI: He does a lot of reconsidering. First he said it was a mistake when he pled guilty and now he is hinting that it was a mistake to resign. I say come on back Fairy Craig, er, Larry Craig. It would only help the left to continue to make the case that the GOP is a party full of untrustworthy hypocrites. I'll even chip in to retro fit his Senate office into a men's room theme to put the Senator more at ease.
Why Specter his coming to his defense defies comprehension except perhaps Specter is his love slave.
This is all a classic example of the Republican party's "family values" of self-hate, denial, bigotry and hypocrisy.

He's as confused about resigning as he is about his sexuality.
Did I say "Guilty"? I mean "Not Guilty". Did I say "Resign?", I mean "Re design". I did not now nor have I ever resigned. This guy is a trip.
I wouldn't have thought that "any attention is good attention" would apply in this case, but maybe ol' Craig really likes the spotlight. Maybe after this dies down, he'll announce he's resigning again, and then do a couple more reversals. Talk about flip flopping. I'm glad he's not the guy with his finger on the nuclear button. Oh, crap...that idiot BUSH has his finger on the button. Still, glad it's not Craig. Harder to take back a 150 megaton statement than a resignation.
Lynne:
Ha!! THAT's for sure!!! Good one.
Fashion Girl:
Yes, he is a trip and the voters of Idaho should not only want him out for the guilty plea but also for terrible judgment. Great comment.
Joe C:
Oh man, yeah a President Larry Craig sounds just terrifying.
"The American people heard from Larry Craig that he would resign, and using the word 'intent' as a back door doesn't work with them."
And yes, Craig IS apparently a back door man. That's his business and whether or not he does or doesn't isn't much concern to me... What DOES bug me is the hypocrisy of being so anti-gay and then engaging in activities that are gay-sex related.
Snave:
Yep, it's all about the hypocrisy for me too. I wish he could just live as an openly gay or bisexual man and not be tortured with self-hate and confusion.
