Yes, A Larry Craig Joke, More or Less

Never thought about this but one does, it's kind of incredible:
If that's true — if he wasn't soliciting gay sex when they caught him — then pleading guilty is one of the great all-fired braindead moves of all time. Even without advice of counsel, you oughta know that. Someone that stupid should not be making our laws.

On the other hand, if it's not true — if he was trolling for men's room sex and he said the above to try and save his image, he oughta be kicked out of public service for sheer idiocy. That's even stupider than pleading guilty to a sex crime you didn't commit because you think it'll end your problems quicker. And what's even stupider is thinking that anyone anywhere will believe it.
Link.

So lemme see.... This wingnut has enough hubris to believe that the story would never, well, come out. And then not to comprehend what would happen when it would come out that a modern conservative was a closeted homosexual (well, maybe he had to be bi to get any).

Of course, even if he thought, retained an attorney, bit the bullet and fought the charges, he's probably still be where is, copping a plea. It would have been a really hard rap to beat: cop doing his job with nothing at stake against a lying sack of shit pol (yes, I just convicted Craig all be myself. Wow, his presumption of innocence didn't last long here! Any shorter and you'd think I was a modern conservative, ready and willing to convict anyone in my mind with minimal proof or less!)
