Summary


There's much, much more. But the preceding should give an idea of why Idaho-the U.S. of A., the planet Earth, probably even the Milky Way, if the whole truth were known-will be better off without him. I think it's safe to assume there will never be a "[Larry Craig] Middle School" or a "Craig Center for the Performing Arts," let alone a "Larry Craig Wilderness" or a "Mount Craig." Nor should there be. At every step of his career, Larry Craig has busied himself at undermining things of our world that should last ... salmon, honor, freedom, forests, integrity, rivers ... you name it. Instead, he has spent his life as nothing more than a facilitator for the smashers and grabbers, for those who see no value in anything but the easiest buck they can make. In spite of what his old cronies say, nothing Craig accomplished should last. Everything Craig accomplished should be undone. His legacy can only be applauded for the complete dismantling of it. Too bad, Larry. I feel for ya', but your old Senate buddies are right about one thing. You are a disgrace.

So I thought we'd review some of the highlights of Larry's career ... if the term "highlights" even applies here. Yes, he's gone now and with any luck, we'll never have him to kick around anymore. But it's important that future generations of Idaho school kids don't get Larry Craig confused with anything that might remotely be labeled "illustrious." What follows is just a sampling of the sort of "up yours" infamy Craig has been pulling over the years.

Pity the Fool

I wish I knew how to quit you, Larry Craig!

Uh, what I mean is, I don't think we should turn our backs on Larry just yet.

Uh, that didn't come out right either. What I mean is, when it comes to the Craig affair, I feel we need to get something straightened out between us.

Dammit! Sorry about all the innuendo. Seems like no...
