Larry Craig’s got big plans this Saturday. The disgraced senator will be inducted into the much coveted Idaho Hall of Fame – and not everyone’s happy about it.
The nonprofit Idaho Hall of Fame Association picked Craig in March, months before he pleaded guilty to disorderly conduct after a Minneapolis airport police officer accused him of soliciting sex in the men’s restroom, the organization’s board chairman said.
“Larry Craig has made a great contribution to Idaho over the period of 20-some years. At the time it was considered, this other matter had not come up,” Harry Magnuson told The Spokesman-Review newspaper Saturday.
But some Republicans said the honor is inappropriate now. Kootenai County Republican precinct committeeman Phil Thompson said Idaho Hall of Fame officials should consider at least postponing the induction.
“Maybe in 10 or 15 years we can think of this hall of fame stuff. Now is not the time,” he said. “It’s a sad day to be a Republican.”
Not if you’re Larry Craig. That man’s fucking unstoppable!

Nice pic!!! Come to think of it, I used to live in Idaho, but in the only Blue town (Sun Valley). Even so, I only lasted six months before returning to the comforting bosom of NYC.
