Tappy Feet--Back in the News

[Larry Craig] Sen. Larry Craig, R-Idaho, is making headlines again, once again for his airport restroom antics. It's the story that keeps on giving.

Yesterday, the Ethics Committee administered a sound scolding to Craig and then made him go to his room without dessert, saying his arrest discredited the august body of the U.S. Senate.

Of course, it did nothing of the sort. How many times, when you hear these stories, do you think, "Oh, Senate! Back to your old tricks again, I see." I don't. Craig didn't discredit the Senate; he only discredited homophobic Republicans--of whom there seem to be an awful lot these days. (Brandon Burt)
