You Can’t Teach an Old RepublicanTommi Avicolli-Meccabyline‚ Dec. 05‚ 2007The shoe’s on the other foot right now. U.S. Senator Larry Craig, a conservative from Idaho, would probably have been one of the first legislators to push for getting tougher on public sex. A strong “family values” kind of guy with a perfect record of voting against gay rights, Craig would no doubt have lost no time in denouncing the “perverts” who come on to other men in parks or public restrooms. Facing charges now that he made similar advances (via foot tapping and a hand gesture) to an uncover cop in a Minneapolis airport men’s room, Craig is singing a different tune. He’s claiming that the police sting operation that caught him in its net is “unconstitutional.” |
