Any Squares To Spare?

UPDATE: Larry Craig's arrest interview (audio and transcript) are now available. The officers sound completely believable and like they are not interested in being lied to. It's a disgrace that this deluded individual would have so little trouble saying he didn't do what anyone with a brain (in their head, not in their pants) knows very well he did. It's shocking that a tough-on-crime Republican would whine entrapment in a situation like that. And as for being gay or not, you can't be entrapped into anything you didn't want to do in the first place. So it looks like he did what he was accused of doing, and he's gay whether or not he wants to be gay. There's no fuckin' way he will not resign. Probably over the Labor Day weekend, to avoid even more attention.

Meanwhile, Fred Thompson's an idiot to be announcing just after Labor Day weekend—fewer will pay attention. I expect him to run a nasty campaign for supremacy. Good luck, buddy, because this is one unpleasant man who will out-unpleasant Giuliani to Republicans in the intended way...but will out-unpleasant Hillary Clinton to Republicans in an unintended and consequential way.

Required listening—what Larry Craig should have said at his amazingly defiant press conference swan song. (Does anyone else think he might wind up blowing his brains out? If so, tap three times with your right foot.)
