Well Thank God He's Not Gay!

Warning!  Strong and political opinions here.  No knitting content.  You have been warned. 

I am sure I'm not the only one who's heard about Idaho senator Larry Craig and his loud protests that he's not gay.  Well, all I have to say is THANK GOD!  I'd be horrified if I was gay and I had to claim that he had anything remotely in common with me.  Oh, sure Larry, I'm sure it's awful in your eyes to be considered gay, but it's perfectly OK to solicit "lewd conduct" in an airport restroom miles from home and then plead guilty to it "hoping it will go away."  What kind of idiots do you take us for?  How dare you besmirch the good name of honest, hardworking, law-abiding people out there, whether they be gay, Republican, senators or even humans?  And I love the senate-card throwing bit, too...let me know how that works out for you in the coming weeks. 

What a creep.  And what an idiot.  Did he really think that was going to go away?

People.  Get out there and vote.  For all your elections, not just the big ones.  Pester your representatives when there's an issue you care about, no matter what size.  Otherwise, no bitching.
