And ANOTHER THING, Mr. Dredge -
I do NOT consider myself to be a Democrat. I am a LIBERAL INDEPENDENT.
There IS a difference.

Paul,
I don't like to see Larry Craig demonized either and the vicious attacks -
aside from the late night comedians - are only coming from his own party
members. There is not a single Democrat other than Tom Hansen (who doesn't
know the value of keeping his powder dry) calling for Craig's resignation.
The Republicans sure implode easily.

It appears that his biggest concern was that he wouldn't have to be
called in to court. I'm guessing that he wanted to sweep it under the
rug so that his family didn't know and so that the media might not
notice. He appears to have failed utterly at that.
I'm by no means a supporter of his politics. I, too, find it
distressing that he voted for the no bid contract with Halliburton. I
just don't like to see this guy demonized over something that was (imho)
very vague and could easily be created out of whole cloth in the mind of
a police officer who was maybe too zealous in his attempts to catch a
perpetrator.
