Senator Larry Craig (R-ID) was arrested and plead guilty to charges that he approached a plains clothes police officer in the Minneapolis International Airport bathroom attempting to initiate a sexual tryst. Craig who plead guilty to a disorderly conduct misdemeanor now says that plea was "a mistake" and is denying he sought to have gay sex with a man in a public toilet.
Craig, long been suspected as being gay, has had numerous allegations leveled against him of being a closeted gay man. An investigation by the Idaho Statesman details the allegations. (link via Talking Points Memo) Craig has long been an opponent of gay rights and gay marriage and is undecided regarding seeking another term in the US Senate...
Another example of a GOP politician saying "do as I say and not as I do", and in Craig's case what he does in public toilets.
