Do Republicans like Sen. Larry Craig's decision to complete his term?

Answer 1

not sure what their stance is at the moment. they're looking at the paperwork. there's a lot of toe-tapping going on, they're in a dirty place. they're certainly trying in subtle ways to connect with each other, sending signals, they don't want to be stung, to queer the deal as it were. but in the face of mounting evidence they're sticking to their story.

Answer 2

I think it's rather interesting decision to say the least. I find the irony of someone who has helped fostered so much homophobia falling victim to it just deserts in so ways and sad at the same time. David Vitter has largely gotten off the hock after basically admitting that he was a John that enjoyed being dressed in a diaper which apparently is ok in the republican party and the press. No one has when on a national campaign to have him ousted but Larry Craig's case has the whiff of homosexuality and nothing makes conservatives quiver with fear like that topic. I can hear the cries of "think of the children" coming from them now in their desperate attempt to justify this to themselves.

A nearby local paper ran a story about one of these bag-a-*ag operations (As the cops call them), they not only published their names and address but their pictures of those arrested not convicted mind you arrested. They don't even do that to pedophiles and rapists. I also know that heterosexuals "park" in those same areas. Yet I don't see their pictures in the paper nor are they arrested. I also remember that a few years ago a gay man being stabbed in one of those parks took the ambulance 45 min. to get there. The park is less than a mile from the station.

Answer 3

I had under no circumstances heard of Senator Craig formerly and that i stay in an adjoining state to his. So he's no longer precisely a favourite determine interior the information. The quote above became Leno's comedian tale final evening; it is not what occurred interior the restroom. Supposedly he tapped the foot of the guy interior the stall next to him. i became taken aback to examine that that's the "sign" used by way of adult males attempting to attach to different adult males. under no circumstances heard of it formerly yet i assume I lead a sheltered existence. until somebody comes forward and says they have been as quickly as his better half, i'm going to offer him the income of doubt. i do no longer think of a guy or woman would desire to be tried by way of the media. If he's gay, i do no longer care (as long as he does not hit on me!); there are others interior the Senate who're overtly gay. What i discover greater traumatic is that if he has been 2-confronted approximately it. Lie approximately one element and you under no circumstances be attentive to if different statements are lies, too. that's reported it somewhat is nice to constantly tell the fact; it somewhat is much less stressful to recollect.

Answer 4

No, I do not like the decision. He shows a lack of control and moral character that goes beyond the norm and should be removed if he cannot muster up enough integrity to step down.

Answer 5

I think it is good that he is going to fight for his job. All he did was a minor thing, it wasn't like he drove a car with his pregnant lover into a lake or something.

Answer 6

No, I don't think many do... if any at all.
He said he'd resign.
That makes him a liar on top of everything else.
I think the leadership should force him out.

Answer 7

As a republican, do not honestly see how he feels he is helping his party. I may have felt different if his original position was not to resign.

Answer 8

No, but it's really between Craig and his voters in Idaho

Answer 9

I don't think so. Power must be hard to let go of, huh? He will not run again or if he does, he will not win re-election.

Answer 10

I don't see why not?

Its what Bob Dole called "Big Tent" politics..eh,:)
