Mitt should watch out for his sons with this GOP group you never know who'll they will go after next. Mitt is a loser with or without pervert Craig.
what makes craig a perv???
Markie,
Craig is professional perv. Re-read the incident report and check out my posting and video of the Congressional page sex scandal in 1982 involving Craig. Craig has gotten away with his closet ways for quite sometime. And the police officer knew that Craig was a pro from his tapping of his shoe. Foley, Allen, and other GOP lawmakers who were caught with their pants down are amateurs compare to Craig.
Not to mention the real disaster the mandatory health care insurance became in Mass., with no affordable options and peoples tax refunds being taken for healthcare they could not afford.
suppose it depends on your definition of pervert. i wouldn't define a pervert as an adult male trying to get into another adult males pants.
I'm with Markie. A perv is someone who goes after little kids (male or female) or gets their jollies looking through windows or flashing. Instead, this dude is a damn lying hypocrite. How *DARE* he condemn others for what he is.
Well, I disagree with kittybowtie and Markie to a certain extent. What you define pervert may not be someone else's defintion. And no kittybowtie, a pervert is not neccessily a person who goes after kids. There are adults that lure adults from the opposite sex and same sex. But, I will agree with you both, kittybowtie and Markie: Craig is a damn hypocrite and wanted to get into the male's pants. Call it what you want. Craig may have said that he is not gay but for damn sure he wanted brokeback in the john!!!
