What the Craig?

Tuesday, September 04, 2007
Latest word is that Idaho Senator Craig is possibly gearing up for a fight over his arrest in June. According to the Section 1 of the Constitution he has legal ground to have the charge overturned. Congressmen can't be arrested for other than treason, or a felony charge when en route to Congress. A "wide stance" in the restroom hardly qualifies.

I could really care less if Craig stays or goes. I would lean to him going, since he has already signaled that he would. I am sure that the sentiment is shared with Republican Leaders and most of the party in general. It's a mute point, because I am sure the good people of Idaho will dispense with Mr. Craig in 2008.

The sad fact is the long legs that this story has gotten and the relative muted coverage the Hsu campaign allegations have gotten. Who by the way turned himself in and was released on bond, so that you guessed it, he could skip town again. How stupid is our legal system. This clown is probably sitting in Hong Kong safe from the prying eyes of the MSM. The judge that released him on bond should be slapped. This guy was on the lamb since 1991, why on earth would you provide him a chance to run again, this time to a location where he isn't easily retrievable. Way to go, Your Honor.
