Sen. Larry Craig, R-Idaho, is writing a book that will reflect on the turmoil after his arrest last year in an airport sex sting. Craig is retiring in January after 18 years in the Senate and a decade in the House.

He told KTVB-TV in Boise, Idaho, the book will focus on "the state of politics" in Washington, but also will review his career, including his arrest by an undercover officer in a men's room at the Minneapolis airport that inspired toe tapping comedy routines everywhere.

"There will be a bit of what's happened in the last year and the way it evolved," Craig said. "I think that's important for Idaho and those outside Idaho who are interested to know."

I don't expect the book to have a shred of truth in regards to the bathroom incident, do you?

I think the more he denies it, the more he buries in the quicksand (in the middle of a dirty public toilet that is), no matter how many fantasies he creates to clean his “hater” “reputation”. Hey grandpa, don’t worry, you had your moments, let the young republicans do it now.
I just start to think that if that is “his” truth about that sexual incident, how could it be “his” truth about his political career. Oh, gosh, I can’t see not the slightest sparkle of light there. Creepy.
By the way, when such people claims that the were never gay, it’s true. The were closeted bisexuals. You know, bisexuals protect themselves with that false notion that says “either you are one thing or the other, just”.

I'm trying to picture the marketing of his book...bigoted fundamentalists? No. Airport janitorial staff? Hardly. Gay people? Not likely. Anyone in congress? Staying clear. Yep...looks like just the state of Idaho. Wonder which pictures he'll include.
