Keep Your Hands Off the Boys

So, Larry Craig is going to quit and another Republican resigns in disgrace.
Things might have been so different if Larry Craig would just have said something
like, you know, the truth. That for years he’s been struggling with
himself. That he loves his family but he’s been living a lie.
Craig simply couldn’t be honest, not in the GOP. He’s a Republican and cruising in public toilets
is a lesser evil than actually admitting you are gay.
As for what
this tells us all about Republicans, it isn’t anything good and someone better wise up because as this post warns, until Republicans get a grip on the humanness of gayness they’ll continue to be dogged by their own hypocrisy.
Everybody makes mistakes, but when the perfect pontificate about their virtues
then get caught in a men’s toilet defying their own lectures it kind of takes the sheen off the message.
Republicans will likely take a lesson from David Vitter instead. If you’re going to screw around do it with
a hooker, like the good old boys do all the time.
