Larry Craig plans to pen a book, will discuss arrest "turmoil"
And I'm sure it will begin with the phrase: "I am not gay. I never have been gay."




from AP, via the MPS Star-Trib:



Craig says new book will cover arrest turmoil
Associated Press



WASHINGTON - 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, 62, is retiring from Congress 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.

"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."

4. I don't want a book. I want one of those Senator Larry "wide-stance" Craig bobbleheads.

Like the ones given at the recent St. Paul Saints baseball game.

5. Who is "interested to know"? Better make it a short run of books. Maybe 2.
1 for Larry, 1 for his parents?
