Why would Craig -- someone with <BR>> a law degree -- plead guilty if this is all that happened? It doesn't add up.<BR>> <BR>> Notice that on the CNN website it says: "A police officer who arrested him <BR>> June 11 said Craig peered through a crack in a restroom stall door for two <BR>> minutes and made gestures suggesting to the officer he wanted to engage in <BR>> 'lewd conduct.' ... 'Craig would look down at his hands, "fidget" with his <BR>> fingers, and then look through the crack into my stall again,' Karsnia wrote in <BR>> documents accompanying the arrest report."<BR>> <BR>> Tell me, do you give Michael Vick the benefit of the doubt? Do you say, "Well, <BR>> he just plead guilty in order to save himself some trouble. That doesn't mean <BR>> he is guilty of any crime." Or do you take his case for what it is, i.e., a <BR>> genuine admission of guilt. And if you treat Vick differently, why?<BR>> <BR>> --<BR>> Joe Campbell<BR>> <BR>> ---- lfalen <lfalen@turbonet.com> wrote: <BR>> <BR>> =============<BR>> No I have not followed every vote by every Congressman. I think people tend to look at ssues that they are the most interested in. In regard to the charge against Craig- I don't thing that touching someone's foot is anything to get too excited over.
