Larry Craig slams "gladiator politics"
"Craig also had harsh words for the treatment from his Senate GOP colleagues — what he referred to as 'gladiator politics'.”

9. If it's a Latin word, shouldn't the plural of "gladiator" be "gladiatim"?
Note that I'm making a homophonic joke here.

11. Well, he says that he's against it, but sometimes he "votes with his feet"
So you could say he takes a wide stance on the issue.

8. Does Craig have a boy dog named Scraps?
This is becoming more and more like the South Park episode where Cartman fakes having Tourette's...

12. What's good for the goose is good for the gander...
It all depends on whose ox is being gored...

Every dog has its day...

Pot calling the kettle black...

Just not enough aphorisms to cover this pile of shit. However, Big Daddy's best line in Cat on a Hot Tin Roof seems to fit: "MENDACITY! MENDACITY!"
