Larry Craig is a Republican Senator from Boys Council, Idaho. He is best known for his hardcore theocratic bent and for pleading guilty to trolling for hot man-on-man-action "lewd conduct" in an airport restroom. [1] [2]

Community Life Amendment

On June 15, 1989 Craig co-sponsored the Community Life Amendment in the US senate which would amend the constitution to "allow voluntary prayer and the teaching of the Judeo-Christian ethic in public schools." [3]

The amendment had four prongs:

SECTION 1. The right of the people to allow voluntary prayer and the teaching of the Judeo-Christian ethic in public schools shall not be denied or abridged by the United States.

SECTION 2. For the purpose of section 1, the term `teaching of the Judeo-Christian ethic' shall include the Ten Commandments and the creation of the earth as accepted in Judeo-Christian tradition.

SECTION 3. Section 1 shall not force the people to enact any statute against their will.

SECTION 4. Nothing in this Amendment shall constitute the establishment of a religion, nor shall this Amendment permit any governmental or administrative authority to prescribe the form or content of any voluntary prayer. [3]

Lewd conduct

Mug shot after Arrest in June of 2007

On August 8th of 2007 Craig plead guilty to disorderly conduct charges. Craig was arrested June 11 by a plainclothes officer investigating complaints of lewd conduct in a men's restroom at the airport. [2]

He has attempted several methods to try and "make it go away".

He now is claiming various forms of confusion and stupidity as a retroactive defense against his plea.

He also said that he would never troll for men in Boise. Why bust on Boise, dude?

One is left to wonder why he didn't simply beat the rap, if it was so insubstantial.

Larry Craig should have known better.

Too much information

Senator Craig alleges, in his recent attempts to minimize the exposure of the errors of his ways, that when using the toilet in a sitting position, he takes a very "wide stance". Eeeew. (Even for an instant cliche.)

Apparently he also does not flush or wash his hands, either, perhaps because the police officer had, by then, placed him neatly into a pair of handcuffs.

Still not gay

This is his position as of 15:56, 2 May 2015 (UTC).
