Thread Name: BS: Senator Larry Craig (R-Idaho)- lewd conduct
Subject: RE: BS: Senator Larry Craig (R-Idaho)- lewd conduct
Late to the discussion, I may have missed this-- but:

A, who leaked the news of his disorderly conduct "convicition" and the "truth" underlying it?

B, hm, I don;t seem to be hearing about that side of it on the news, either.

[eyebrows zooming north] What a shock!

I offer BTW the prior thread "Your Career, Dead" for your review: here's another simple case of a really dumb career decision. Shouldna pled it out! Shouldda fought it tooth and nail with lawyer! Because: the cop in the televised "interview" would have been incredibly vulnerable on cross examination. I bet defense alwyers all over are drooling over his pissy, defensive tone on the tape.

It would have been a PR triumph for Craig instead of this sleazy story and the triumphant politicking around it.

I detest people's dancing on graves. They're like film Indians "counting coup," whooping and celebrating-- except that they haven't done anything brave.
