Is a public restroom a better place for that behavior or the Oval Office?

bubba was on the clock in oval office and liberal hypocrites still say it's personal.
How refreshing it was to see Republicans asking Larry to step down. They are consistent

If the CEO of any corporation was having sex with interns, you libs would be singing a different tune.
'abuse of power'
'taking advantage of naive teens'
etc
The president is the CEO of USA

Good for Clinton - good for Craig.
Another example of liberal hypocrisy.

Cruising gay bars for sex is not a crime. Cruising Airport Public Washrooms for sex is a crime! That makes it not personal. Having sex in private is not a crime. Having sex in books is not a crime. Having sex with pages is a crime.
After years of Republican "Holier than anyone" huffing and "Restoring trust and Honor" and all sorts of other balderdash finally having an information system they can't control is outing them all as the Gang Of Perverts they are.
After all that hysteria about heterosexual sex between adults, from Gary Condit to Bill Clinton, or even the Imagined sex in the case of Gary Hart (the woman being a right wing operative who still denies the affair) and the 24/7 attacks by all the supposedly "Liberal" Media, they have lost all credibility to oppose not turning the tables. Particularly when the rot is horridly worse and hundreds of cases, with new ones it seems every week!
EDIT:
1.Interns are adults, Pages are Children.
2:If a woman is soliciting sex with men in a public restroom, she might well get customers, but she would also get arrested for soliciting, the same crime as Craig.

The Oval Office isn't going to have a cop on bathroom duty busting people for a CRIME. See the difference? When he took his behavior into a public restroom, he opened up a whole other can of worms. Nobody cares that he is gay, just that he villified the gays and then he got caught soliciting for gay sex in public restroom.
Monica Lewinski was old enough to have a relationship with whomever she wanted. I don't believe that the President coerced her into anything. They did the deeds in private and the last I knew, BJ's are not against the law.

Considering that Craig was "on the clock" when the incident occurred (he was flying from DC to Idaho with a layover in MN), he shouldn't get the ability to shield this incident from the public.
edit: When did Senator Larry Craig step down? Oh that's right, he isn't going to. So whether or not a request was made by fellow Republicans, is completely irrelevant at this point.

As I've said before: If you place a hot looking young girl in front of a restroom, had her make a sexually suggestive gesture and then arrested every man that followed her in, the jails would be overflowing by the end of the week. The simple reality is Larry did not commit a crime. Even though I think he is a disgusting closeted self-loather, I think he should have fought the charges. He didn't and accepted a plea. It's funny how cons expect special treatment for themselves but want to sail everyone else down the river for the most minor of offenses.

I am not gay, and never have been. I am the victim of a witch hunt... A witch hunt against people that eat a lot of fiber.
Because I eat a lot of fiber, I have to take a wide stance when I take a massive dump. The wide stance increases the power I can bring to bear. And honestly when that turd just won't cooperate, I need every megapascal of pressure that the wide stance affords me.
Apparently, in some perverse circles, taking a wide stance in a public bathroom is somehow indicative of a request for sex. Can you believe that? It's so disgusting!
When I'm really applying the intestinal pressure, I shake and tap my foot. It's absurd that such a completely normal reaction to the stress I'm putting on my body could be misconstrued as requesting sex!
And when I really have to go deep down inside myself to force out a monster turd, I shout phrases like, "I am requesting gay sex!" How my shouting of the phrase, "I am requesting gay sex!" could ever be construed as a request for sex, I'll never know.

Sure, stay out of it, as long as you don't mind taking your children into a restroom and finding your senator getting it on with another guy.
I usually don't take my children to the oval office after the whitehouse is closed to the public to use the restroom. You might have those kind of connections but most Americans do not.
Can't imagine why people who don't want gays to marry, because they are scared our children will think it is alright, are defending the actions of Craig.

No--for two reasons:
1) HE BROKE THE LAW. That is not a "personal matter," it is a ligitimate public concern.
2) The religious right--including Larry Craig--have set themselves up as self-appointed moral arbiters--and claimed that as their main qualification for office. That being the case, they open the door to examination of the morality of their personal behavior--since that is the basis on which they have presented themselves to the voters.

Where better to have sex than a rest stop bathroom? No need to worry about cleaning anything up!
Its like the Wizard of Oz. Just tap your feet the right way, and you can go off to a happy place.

Objection, the defense opened the door on personal life in regarding to sex when they impeached Clinton.
He was busted in a prostitution sting. HE PLED GUILTY!
End of story.

Had it been done at his home or someone else's home, I'd say it's nobody's business but in a public restroom where people bring their children, that makes it an issue. The fact that he then lied about it shows his true colors, scum pure scum, can't even come clean when he's caught, loser!
