Yes. He was not in the bedroom. It happened in a public restroom at an international airport. He claims he did not engage in inappropriate conduct. The police report sounds like his behavior was certainly inappropriate. He pleaded guilty on the charge.

Yes. It shows a considerable measure of poor judgement to have done what he did. That is not what people or states need when it comes to their Senator. Senators should not be caught engaging in unethical, immoral or criminal behaviors.
However, we have seen how Massachusetts keeps sending criminal and immoral Democrat Senators (Kennedy) and Representatives (Studds) back to Washington DC, so there should be no moral preening from that side of the aisle about it.
One of the problems is that the 17th Amendment has made Senators less accountable than when the state governments selected them as their representatives in the federal government.

You know I believe I could support him resigning, I find his purported behavior to be disgusting but, for anyone on the other side to cast the first stone, I believe there are a few hundred Democrats who need to resign as well starting with Diane Feinstein for using her position to make her and her husband millions in government money.

Yes and the GOP will demand it as we do for all members who engage in inappropriate conduct (personally and professionally). And this won't be blamed on a left wing conspiracy either. Craig did it and Craig will be held accountable. Glad the Dems are with us on this one and not screaming about homophobes and what an adult does sexually is their own personal business. Hopefully we can purge all these disgraceful swine from the GOP.

I believe he should. All people should take responsibility for their actions. Especially those who are in a position of power. If laws were broken the appropriate punishment should be enforced.

Personally, I think any congressman/senator who is found guilty of a crime more serious than traffic ticket should be kicked out. How can they have the moral authority to legislate when they themselves do not adhere to the law.

No. I think what people do in the bedroom is private.
Edit: It's a figure of speech. I teach ESL if you need some help understanding idioms and other like figures of speech.

no, the new standard for congress is to do what ever the hell you want. When they start holding any of the crooked democrats feet to the fire, I may change my opinion. Hillary should withdrawal from the race due to AGAIN campaign financing.

Hey Goldenrae, a public restroom isn't exactly a bedroom.
