"He's disappointed the American people," former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney... in his CNBC interview, apparently wasn't buying Craig's story.
"It reminds us that people who are elected to public office continue to disappoint," Romney said. "And they somehow think that if they vote the right way on issues of significance or they can speak a good game that we'll just forgive and forget."

Senator Craig, I'm with Mitt on this one, probably for the first and only time.
But to diverge from Mitt's message... you haven't disappointed the American people because you are gay (or curious, or bi, or whatever you are), you HAVE disappointed the American people by not being honest about who you are and what you stand for... in short, by being a hypocrite.
If you are gay, you are gay. Like I said yesterday, you just can't legislate the gay away. No amount of anti-gay voting, or aligning with "conservative groups who oppose gay rights" will make the gay go away.
Stop your hypocrisy, and be who you ARE. (Which at this point, probably includes not being a senator for much longer.) |
