Larry Craig has a defender

Okay, I don't think trying to solicit gay sex in a men's room is reason for anybody to lose their job, even though Republican Senator Larry Craig is an enormous hypocrite.

But... he tried to HAVE SEX IN A BATHROOM!

And look who's defending him, according to the New York Times:

"Mr. Craig had his defenders among the Republicans, including Senators Michael Crapo, also of Idaho, and Arlen Specter of Pennsylvania, both of whom said Mr. Craig was within his rights to remain and try to clear his name.

“Senator Craig is entitled to make his decision and I respect it,” Mr. Specter said. “Disorderly conduct is not moral turpitude and it is no basis for leaving the Senate.”

Mr. Crapo, a friend and ally on state issues, said he strongly supported Mr. Craig. “I look forward to working with him in the Senate as he resolves his legal battles,” said Mr. Crapo."

Crap-o! His name is Crap-o!

It's as if God Himself reached down from the heavens to tell me a fart joke.
