Craig’s List Update
Idaho Senator Craig is not gay. Well, not flaming, anyhow…
Ahhh. Sex and politics. It never gets old. We had some fun with the Larry Craig story when it first broke(back) yesterday.
Here are additional takes from two three of our favorite sites:
From News As Gossip. The story is headlined: Republican Senator Solicits Pork Project in Men’s Restroom and includes this gem: “[Senator Craig] has remained in staunch opposition to gay rights but says he is very open to “gay wrongs.”
Fark.com tagged the story with: Senator Larry Craig (R-eacharound) enjoys re-enacting his favorite line from Blazing Saddles in public bathrooms
Over at The Web Pen Blog, they explain why Senator Craig needs to take improv classes. Plus, a Wizard of Oz reference…wait for it…wait for it….
Some other favorite quotes and unintentional double entendres from various sources:
Rackjite.com notes that, due to the recent events, Craig’s “seat is now up for grabs this coming term. ”
The Washington Post speculates that the Idaho governor might be called on to name an interim replacement for Craig in the event that the Senator resigns. The Idaho governor’s name: Butch Otter.
Stay tuned for more updates…
UPDATED UPDATE:
For those of you wanting to get your serious political jam on …. Fellow 451 writer and GI favorite Lyndsey D’Arcangelo came across a pointed and thoughtful letter to the editor in the Idaho Statesman newspaper and featured it on her blog, Lez Keep It Real.
