I love and fully stand by my sister, who is gay.<BR/><BR/>My beef with Senator Craig is that he is a criminal. Not because he is gay, but because he has pled guilty to committing at least one crime, THEN attempting to interfere in an investigation using his position as a Senator to get out of trouble.<BR/><BR/>I suspect you didn't fully read what I wrote.<BR/><BR/>Terri,<BR/><BR/>He did plead guilty to Disorderly <BR/>Conduct. Charges are often made on lesser crimes because some things are easier to prove in court. Additionally, I suspect that Craig got some legal advice and made a deal about pleading to the lesser charge of Disorderly Conduct, rather than have to go to trial.<BR/><BR/>Pleading to the lesser charge doesn't mean that you didn't do what you got nabbed for.Gunfighterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05762432006297768871noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24607242.post-9873377247902097292007-08-31T18:13:00.000-04:002007-08-31T18:13:00.000-04:00GF...

No one who is knowingly under investigation, even by local media, would plead guilty to this charge just to make it "go away" quickly, even if it was to a lesser charge. Wouldn't you stand on the highest point, declaim your innocence and decry the depths to which the authorities sank in their attempt to entrap you?
