Hardball - What Now for Larry Craig?

[Honkynees]

My question to the public: I have seen military leaders lose rank and commands for things sexual in nature. But Clinton the commander in chief and others in the senate fight to stay in office after such incidents. Where is the example and leadership when this happens? Nobody is perfect but we count on people of leadership to make the right decisions and hold themselves to a high standard of conduct. My opinion and not meant to upset anyone.

@Honkynees ........Well made point.

[MrEatonbeaver]

Buchannan refuses to grasp the reality of the hypocrisy of craig and all the repressed homosexual bashing, closet dwelling republicans, the number of which you could make a Tarzaan movie. Pat indirectly blamed craig's behavior on the devil, another imaginary man of the conservatives. Poor Pat's denial is the hypocrisy that wound up certifying Maddow's point that it was not the crime but his posture (pun intended).

Does your mouth get crooked from munching on rugs and bearded clams?

[xylin3]

@clouser67 boo hoo you just dont like that she makes conservatives (YOU) feel like morons.

[clouser67]

@xylin3 That is incorrect. Rather, sex pervert quasi-conservatives like Larry Craig and sexually deviant communists like Mr. Maddow make me indignant. People like you make me want to take your pointing finger, break it off, and shove it up your ass.

[xylin3]

@clouser67 Then let Me rephrase... Boo - Hoo you just dont like that she makes conservatives (YOU) "indignant" _which you ARE. no dignity to speak of. did you say something deviant and perverse about taking my finger and putting it somewhere... perverse!?

try harder this is too easy...

[aloofbooks]

@clouser67 That's really not nice to say such mean, bad things about them. They are people too.

[fh346]

@clouser67 ....LMAO.....LMAO......LMAO

Rachel's smile throughout is a killer.

[ruin3r]

Larry Craig is.. wait for it.. FAKE AND GAY!

[gombis666]

This sad man. He wasted his whole life and ruined many more for being stuck in the closet. The closet is a dangerous thing.

[whoo689]

A Senator was expelled in the Civil War for coming on to Jefferson Davis?

[gombis666]

@whoo689 - That's what I heard..... =)

[whoo689]

Rachel Maddow vs. Pat Buchanan

What a juxtaposition! I can just hear Buchanan's thoughts now: "Why am I here debating a dyke? Can't they find someone less sinful?"

[shattersidvik]

Gays out of the closet like Barney Frank run teen male brothels, so you know they aren't afraid of slipping up.

[VintageWhiteTerror]

Prove this Barney Frank statement.

[Serifice]

Prop wife, prop family photos, prop home. Seen it all. Fitting that a self-loathing closet case who made a career out of demonizing gays has no protection from/by his Boys' Club when he gets outed.

Really, you'd swear by conservative standards that being gay is like going off a diet. It's a "slip" or temptation they seem to be so terrified will happen at any moment.

[divinegoddessartemis]

They should move Larry Craig's senate seat to the bathroom ;)

[CanadianQueer]

Best youtube comment ever.

[JohnBach]

Rachael is unbelievably cool.

[chevychase]

Rachel Maddow rules!

[urqiqi]

buchanan is good debater , but larry craig is too pathetic to defend about

[annarboriter]

Is this the same Pat Buchanan who also wanted the impeachment of Clinton even when the majority of Americans saw no need for it? There are so many damned GOP, neocon shills that it's hard to keep them all straight. (pun intended)

[robertinboise]

Chris Matthews asks with shock, "What are these people smiling about?"

I think Senator Craig smiles because he thinks he has fooled us all. The sick man stays in office -- and laughs all the way to the bank.

[robertinboise]

Greetings from Idaho. Larry Craig will do anything to vindicate himself -- no matter how many citizens of Idaho he shames.

Senator Craig is a pathological liar -- and his sickness will be a textbook case in future psychology classes.

It is bizarre that the majority of Idahoans simply stick their head in the sand -- rather than demand his resignation. I looks like lying Larry will stay in office.

Sad for Idaho, sad for the United States Senate.

[maofas]

Self-loathing gay homophobes need representation too!

[DCUPtoejuice]

Pat Rocks

[RadioLeft]

Exactly. Bad, bad, naughty, nasty boy Larry Craid should stay in the Senate to remind Americans that the Repugnant Party is 100% pure scum-bag.

[AmBoy00]

I think he should stay. Stay and be held up as the poster child of the Republican hypocrite.
