[Vision2020] Craig's official statement

[Tom Hansen]

Paul Rumelhart stated:

"I'm just saying that I'd hate to be in that situation and not actually be
guilty.  Tapping your right foot.  Who knew?  I might also be tempted to
just pay the damn fine and hope nobody notices, too."

Senator Craig plead guilty.  In my opinion, that eliminates any questions
arising from Mr. Rumelhart's first statement.

Supposing that you are one of only 100 US senators and that you have been
arrested for lewd conduct, would you seriously be "tempted to just pay the
damn fine and hope nobody notices"?  US senators can't even get a haircut
without causing major headlines.

Sure, be my guest.

You're welcome.

Is he actively anti-homosexual or something?  Despite the fact that he 
gave me a nomination to the Air Force Academy in 1984 (which turned me 
down) I haven't really followed his career that much.

I'm just saying that I'd hate to be in that situation and not actually 
be guilty.  Tapping your right foot.  Who knew?  I might also be tempted 
to just pay the damn fine and hope nobody notices, too.

I do know I plan to keep both feet solidly on the floor for the duration 
next time I'm in an airport restroom.
