Could Craig cancel his resignation?

Errrr, could be.

I find myself ready to hurl at the thought of agreeing with Specter and Leahy, but the fact of the matter is this exactly what he should do. He should tell the GOP to pound salt and change his plea. This is unlikely, but after the travesty of what our [...]

After Craig a higher bar

Senator Craig’s only crime apparently was being stupid. Stupid that he was in the wrong place at the wrong time with a cop with an obvious (according to the entire tape) agenda. Nevertheless it could be argued that as a US Senator he shouldn’t have been in that wrong place at the wrong [...]

Contrary to some the conservative moment isn’t run by the Hugh Hewitts, or any other so-called “Gate Keepers” who are calling for the head of Senator Larry Craig. Again for a recap, this was a bad arrest and Craig should have gotten a lawyer who would have handled this with a phone call. [...]

Liberals and Gays and Liberal Gays (Same?) in a Quandary about Craig

28 Aug

Posted by MacRanger as Larry Craig

While the purists on the Right such as Hugh Hewitt call for Craig’s resignation (I wonder if that would be the case if he hadn’t been so close to Romney?), the left is also in a quandary with this story.
First, again, this was a bad bust. Hell people read the report. A commenter [...]
