Good God, another one?

You'd think with all the previous scandals, any other self-denying (R) homos would be a little more discreet.

Political positions and actions

Craig is a long-time, leading advocate for a Balanced Budget Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.

In May 2003, Craig put a hold on more than 200 Air Force promotions in an attempt to pressure the Air Force to station four new C-130 cargo planes in Idaho, saying that he received a commitment from the Air Force almost seven years earlier that the planes would be delivered. Defense officials said the reason the C-130s had not been sent to Idaho was that no new aircraft were being manufactured for the type of transport mission done by the Idaho Air National Guard unit where Craig wanted the planes delivered.[6]

Craig is a supporter of the guest-worker program proposed by President George W. Bush. In April 2005, Craig attempted to amend an Iraq War supplemental bill with an AgJOBS amendment that would have granted legal status to between 500,000 and 1 million illegal immigrants in farm work. The amendment received 53 votes; 60 were needed because the amendment was not relevant to the matter at hand.[7] A version of the AgJOBS bill legislation was included in the Senate-passed immigration reform bill in 2006.

Craig, the principal sponsor of AgJOBS, continues to support amnesty for illegal immigrants who are "trusted workers with a significant work history in American agriculture."[8] This position has been sharply criticized by anti-immigration activists[9].

In October 2005, Craig suggested that flooded sections of New Orleans should be abandoned after Hurricane Katrina had hit. "Fraud is in the culture of Iraqis. I believe that is true in the state of Louisiana as well." Craig was quoted as saying in a local paper.[10]

On December 16, 2005, Craig voted against a cloture motion filed relative to the USA PATRIOT Act; the motion ultimately earned only 52 votes, and so a Democratic filibuster against extension of the Act (due to expire at the end of 2005) was permitted to continue.[11] On December 21, 2005, Craig backed a six-month extension of the Act while further negotiations took place.[12] On February 9, 2006, Craig announced an agreement between himself, the White House, and fellow Senators John E. Sununu, Arlen Specter, Lisa Murkowski, Chuck Hagel, and Richard Durbin to reauthorize the Act.[13]

In 2006, Craig posted to his Senate website all the earmarks[14] he had inserted into federal spending bills since joining the Senate Appropriations Committee in 1998.

The American Conservative Union gave Craig's 2005 voting record 96 points out of 100. The liberal Americans for Democratic Action gave him 15. Considered a social conservative, Craig has long been an advocate of adoption. Senator Craig supports the Federal Marriage Amendment, voting for cloture on the amendment in both 2004 and 2006. He voted against cloture on a bill in 2002, which would have extended the federal definition hate crimes to cover sexual orientation.[15]

On June 26, 2007, Craig once again reiterated his support for the Comprehensive Immigration Reform Act of 2007.

"Fraud is in the culture of Iraqis. I believe that is true in the state of Louisiana as well." - Larry Craig

And I was looking for a new tagline...
