More Republican losses (so what else is new?)

Restroom where the Larry Craig Restroomgate incident took place. It is such a fitting icon for the Republicans and Steve Sailer to represent the endless loads of crap, lies, and hypocrisy they spew.

U.S. Senator Larry Craig of Idaho has finally resigned after his lewd sexual acts toward an undercover male police officer in a public mens restroom. A conservative politician who has preached sexual morality and homophobia, he finally bites the dust with his lies and hypocrisy.

Here is a detailed account of the Larry Craig Restroomgate scandal.

Six days later, that polite police officer caught a much bigger fish: Larry Craig, the conservative Republican senator from Idaho who has been dogged by—and denying—rumors about being gay for 25 years. This time, though, the notoriously anti-gay-rights senator shot the smoking gun right into his foot. He quietly pleaded guilty earlier this summer to engaging in disorderly conduct in that same Minneapolis airport restroom on June 11 after he and Karsnia did the tap dance that's considered a universal signal for a hidden hookup. Before entering the stall, Craig stared so intently at Karsnia through the crack in Karsnia's door that the officer reported he could see the senator's "blue eyes." When Craig got inside, he tapped his foot, brushing it against the officer's, and waved his hand under the stall divider three times, according to the police report. Karsnia waved his badge back, to which the senator responded, "No!" Later, in the airport police station, Craig flashed his business card to Karsnia, saying: "What do you think about that?"

And those of you who think these Republican homophobes are looking out for you, keep in mind you are most likely to be victimized by them. Crooks and Liars has coverage on Bush's Homophobic Surgeon General Nominee, Dr. James Holsinger. This anal-retentive repukelican has a history of embezzling his heterosexual church members by the millions.

Holsinger was elected to the highest court in the Methodist Church a time when the IRD-affiliated church “renewal” groups had launched efforts to use church judicial systems to enforce their notions of orthodoxy, particularly on matters related to homosexuality.

Now, an investigation Rev. Andrew J. Weaver, Ph.D. and Lawrence H. McGaughey, Esq., and published at Media Transparency, shows that Holsinger used the sale of a United Methodist Church-owned hospital in Kentucky, as a cash cow for his personal ambitions. It took years of litigation by the church to find out what had happened to its money, only to learn that Holsinger had diverted millions to endow professorships at the Chandler Medical Center at the University of Kentucky where he served as Chancellor and fundraiser-in-chief.

You really have no friends or future when you follow these crazed, demented Sailer-type right-wingers.
