CNN: The president called Craig

Being reported just now on CNN.

Edit: "The president wanted to reach out to him."

nevermind...i get it!

See Kpete's thread.

Reach out, reach out and touch someone!

:rofl: :D

Did he use his leg to do it?

a "leg up" on the competition, doesn't it?
Will he be doing the "soft shoe" now?
I wonder if their sign language includes a symbol for "what's your sign?"

hey, at least he called him afterwards.

He's perfectly suited for the job by *'s standards..

You are a blast! :spank:

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

:thumbsup:

this shit just writes itself

ask Dick to reach out and Touch Craig's dick too while you're at it....
he could use another rise

it's been a whole week since he's gotten his rocks off in a bathroom.

Excuse me while I go throw up.

I've heard that somewhere and can't get any specifics... anybody here know about it? Supposed to have happened Friday evening?

handing the reins over to Dana Perrino. Video on C-Span: White House Press briefing with Tony Snow August 31, 2007. About the 2:45 mark, as he was walking out, someone shouted the question "Should Senator Craig resign?", but Bush didn't acknowledge him.

Oh, man, what an uphill struggle this has been.
We've been after this warmongering, rubber-stamping, worthless piece of garbage for years.
Finally, Larry did it to himself!

I can't believe how good I feel knowing we will have a Democrat in the Senate again in 2009.
There's no way the Republicans can regroup fast enough from this scandal.
There's no way we won't have a Democrat back in Washington representing us once again.

She asserted that if the Dems in Idaho got themselves organized, they could make it a strong race for Craig's seat.

Now, with a Repub appointed, that one will be the incumbent with a year's worth of experience in that Senate seat. A tough hill to climb for Dems. But there's time to make a good fight out of it. Get Dems registered!

There were a lot of Democrats that I knew in 2000 that didn't see any reason for voting, but they did just the same because there were local races that were very close.

We used to have a Democratic Senator and a Democratic Representative for years here in Idaho.
Idaho didn't used to be so cotton-picking far to the right.

The Iraq War, coupled with Larry Craig resigning will ENERGIZE Democrats in Idaho next year.
I guarantee that.

Republican Representative Bill Sali is the most divisive Republican to ever serve in the US Congress.
People are already lining up from within his own party to get him the hell out of Congress.
Sali is a homophobe throwback to the 1950's.

In 2009, we could once again have a Democrat Senator and a Democrat Representative in the US Congress from Idaho.

I had exactly the same sentiment about John Kerry in '04. Idaho repugs never fail to snatch victory from the jaws of overconfident Dems.

There is someone else out there that will challenge LaRocco and beat him at his own game.
For one thing, LaRocco is a moderate Democrat.
And when the pendulum swings, it is going to swing way to the left of where LaRocco stands.

Was Bush's palm up or down under the stall?? Did Craig see his wedding ring?

Inquiring minds want to know.

At least make us work a little for the joke. It just isn't fun anymore when it is handed over on a silver platter. There is such a thing as too easy.

Over and over asking other reporters "why is the President calling him NOW?", "why call him now instead of later...he called him really quickly after the news conference".
UH, HELLO???? Cuz it's part of the holiday weekend dump..call now, bury it the news when everyone is off doing their holdiday thing.

to keep his mouth shut about Bushies known gayness lol.
tib

Just channel-surfed by Fox Snooze. They are in full-spin mode making out Larry Craig to be the "victim" . Are Americuns this dumb? Please Dear God tell me it is not true.......... WTF? There is not hope for this country.

yeah, I know a lot of so-called progressives have shown an ugly side by straying from criticizing his hypocrisy to criticizing his being gay ...

but he got drummed out of office by the OTHER RW hypocrites, whom faux snooze just drools over. It is Tom Delay who equated his relatively minor misdemeanor to the 90 grand in the freezer.

So who is faux cricizing?

to gloat
