The Idaho Toe Tap

No its not the new dance craze sweeping the nation. Its something more vile, sick and twisted than that.

Jon Stewart and The Daily Show took a look at the unintentionally funny, yet all-too-sad interview disgraced Sen. Toe tappin' Larry Craig gave to Matt Lauer.

I don’t know about you, but at this point, I’m just angry at the ego that Craig has to have to continue to put his family through this kind of circus, especially when his responses just make no sense.

What kind of man would humiliate his wife by having her go on network TV with this exchange?

LARRY CRAIG: I saw a piece of toilet paper on the floor and it happened to be under my heel. And I don’t know if you’ve seen it before, but I’ve seen it: somebody walk out of a booth, with a piece of toilet paper stuck to their foot.

JON STEWART: Oh yes, I’ve seen that too. That would be embarrassing. And you sure wouldn’t want to put your family through that indignity. Seriously, speaking of family, if you need proof that Larry Craig is NOT gay, here it is: he’s married! To a woman! A she-woman! Let me tell you about Suzanne Craig. Even faced with an accusation by a man claiming to have had sex with her husband, she kept the faith.

SUZANNE CRAIG: I knew immediately that it was not the truth because the description he gave of Larry and some areas that only I might know about were wrong. On three counts.
Keep in mind, that description did not come from the cop in Minneapolis, but another accuser from the Union Station men’s room in D.C.

How many men have to make those kind of allegations? Because there are others. Craig's history proves that this was not just an isolated incident or a simple misundertsanding.

Senator Craig has consistently relied on the support of Idaho's "values voters," but he has not been honest with them about his own conduct. Conservatives and liberals are both standing up and recognizing the hypocrisy of elected officials like Senator Larry Craig. The time for treating Americans one way and behaving in another is over.
