You said “No words were spoken, he did not ask the man next to him for date. He was not in a red light district. He ran his fingers under the stall.”

You acknowledge that a peson can solicit sex without actually engaging in sex, but now you seem to be saying that one must verbally make such requests. This is ludicrous. I have seen people who did not speak each others lanquage agree to sex for money without a word being spoken. Are you implying that if a deaf street walker simply jestures her desire to have sex for money that no crime has been committed? Certain public restrooms ARE redlight districts for gay men. You either have failed to read the articles or you are playing dumb. They were engaged in a sting operation here because this was a known “Gay redlight district”

The gay community has developed a series of body signals used in restrooms to signify that they want to have sex. They do this since saying vocally “Hey dude, want to give me a blow job in a public restroom is likely to draw attention.

Here is how it works.

1) Gay male hangs outside a set of stalls. Peaks in to see if someone who he is attracted to is there.He also is letting any gay male in there se him so they know there is an attraction.

2) Gay male enters stall besides potential date. Gay male then taps foot on floor. Thats to get his “dates” attention. If the date also taps back that shows definite interest.

3) The Gay male then Touches the other persons foot with there own and makes hand jestures UNDER the stall. Further code that the person wants sex. This is the point that straight men do not pass. STRAIGHT MEN DO NOT PLAY FOOTSIE IN THE BATHROOM.STRAIGHT MEN DO NOT PUT THERE HANDS INTO THE OTHER PERSONS STALL!

You say you don’t know any gay men. You probably do but have failed to pick up on the more overt, let alone subtle signs.

His actions are EXACTLY the actions of a gay man looking for a date. I have neaver heard, nor can I immagine any straight man I know EVER touching another mans foot in a restroom then placing there hand under the stall.

You are makeing excuses for him.

Yes I agree that many of the democrats you mentioned should also be ousted if what they did is true. However making excuses for your own parties misbehavior just keeps the cycle going. The democrat who had money in the freezer should be removed, but weather he is or isn’t does not mean that the republicans get a pass on their actions. If we use that logic then politicians will just go deeper into the sewers, if thats possible.

Curt,

I mention my party as to indicate my perspective since you have drawn such a big line of being for or against someone/group. It is sort of like defending someone who is on the other side of an issue. You are totally worng if you think Republicans are morally superior to Democrats as you have no evidence to justify those sweeping conclusions. That would be like saying God likes Republicans more than Democrats. You may make some valid points regarding how the media covers some issue here or there, but I remember Clinton and his cigar shit with Monica 24/7. Oh, it was a Republican controlled Senate that did not find him guilty. So does that make Republican bad for not finding him guilty and tossing his ass?

Personally I have nothing against gays, but Matt Sanchez and his gay porn background is material when deciding if his is credible, particularly with the other allegations mentioned in the Marine Corps Times articles. So that was a matter of his personal conduct, before (porn) and after (the issue with taking funds from the United Way). Same with Craig. He plead guilty of illegal conduct and no doubt was trolling for sex in a public mens room.

One good thing about Sanchez was following your link back from his site brought me to your blog. As a former Marine myself, I have found your blog a good read. That is even with my comments or disagreements here on Sanchez, Craig and your saying Republicans are somehow superior. You seem like a good guy and I will keep reading and hopefully will make a comment on a non gay related post so you can see I have more than one point of view.

“I KNOW Republicans are morally superior.”

Well, they certainly present themselves that way. That’s where the hypocrisy in all this lay.

“Mr. Family Values”, and a married man, goes trolling for gay sex in a men’s room.

Newt Gingrich ditching his wife while she deals with cancer.

Bob Barr, having an affair while prosecuting Clinton for, gasp!, having an affair.

Morally superior? Other than Mormon Romney, which Republican nominees are still on wife number one?

Dems and Repubs are each frail, sometimes failed, humans.

Republicans, however, are your classic folks in glass houses. And that’s why Sen. Craig, et. al., get, and deserve the press.

Mike,

“It’s a “sex” scandal where clearly no sex occurred and it’s not a “sex” scandal when we have Monica’s blue dress with the DNA of President Clinton?”

It’s so nice to finally hear an acknowledgment from the right that the Clinton impeachment was over nothing more than a sex scandal. Thank you.

This is the same thing.

Not even close to the same thing.

No words were spoken, he did not ask the man next to him for date. He was not in a red light district. He ran his fingers under the stall.

Now I never worked vice and have no intention of doing so, so there is no way I can say he wasn’t looking for sex, I’m not familiar with it. Although I am a bit familiar with the female prostitute laws since the team I am currently on helps out with the occasional hooker stings.

But my point in my many comments has been the same. The charge he pled guilty to was not sexual in any way shape or form. If they had enough they would have insisted on the sex charge, they didn’t. Take it from someone who has testified in court a thousand times, who has seen cases filed and not filed. They didn’t have enough and you all are making assumptions.

Now with that being said I have seen cases where the suspect got off even though I knew he was guilty, this may very well be the case with this guy. But what pisses me off is the double standard by our MSM in this.

I mean THIS is leading off in the news while a story about a man who is on the run from the law for stealing a million bucks and then giving it to Hillary Clinton is hardly spoken or written about. A story about a man running his fingers under a stall that may or may not be sexual, a story where he pled guilty to a charge that was NOT sexual in nature at all, that story is big news.

Meanwhile a Democrat who allowed a women to drown is still thought highly off and still in office. A Democrat who lied under oath and was impeached by the house is a hero. A man who agreed to take bribes and is one of the biggest swindlers in Congress (Murtha) has his ring kissed daily. A man who also took bribes and hid a ton of money in a freezer is allowed to stay in various committee’s. A drunk who gets caught driving drunk is still in office, no calls for his ouster. Who is more dangerous? The man driving drunk or the man rubbing his fingers under the stall?

And on our side we force the perp out. Foley, gone. Craig, soon to be gone. Any sniff of wrongdoing and we force them out.

That’s a good thing. But the MSM still pisses me off.

Maybe that anger is coloring my opinion on this whole episode, I don’t know.

blastmarine,

Why must you be so santamonious about Republicans v. Democrats in this situation.

I think I just spelled it all out above.

This is not about party but personal conduct.

Then explain all those Democrats I referenced above and their personal conduct? Explain the non-hysteria? Explain the silence from our MSM?

If you want to spend your whole life justifying why Republicans are morally superior to Democrats go ahead, but when you do next time find a situation that a Democrat is doing wrong.

Justifying? Hell, there is no justifying….I KNOW Republicans are morally superior. I write about it all the time, I provide examples all the time.

I have no idea what your saying in that last sentence of yours.

I happen to be Republican and don’t view Democrats as evil or the enemy.

Let me see, your number 1,009 on the list of commentators who try to prove their point by telling me they are a Republican when it is most obvious they are not.

One observation, your last comments before this post was to belittle a reporter in Iraq who was reporting on the Scott Beauchamp story. You belittled him because he was gay. Now you show up again on another story that involves some gayness.

I’m detecting a trend here.

A man goes into a known red light district. He circles the block 5 times near a young lady in a micro skirt who stands on a corner. He eventually aproaches and asks if she would like to go on a “date” for 20 dollars. Nothing Sexual has occured yet men are arrested and convicted every day for this.

This is the same thing. All his actions were those that anyone who is familiar with Gay Bathroom sex would recognize as trolling for a “date”.

Do a little research and you will find this to be true. His actions match exactly those of someone looking to have sex. Furthermore there is no reasonable explanation for his actions and reactions to what happened.

Care to explain his waving his hand UNDER the stall wall. His hand went far enough uunder and down for the officer to see his ring. He made the gesture three times. The officer said there was no paper on the floor. Combine that with his foot slowly edging over and touching the officers, Peeking through the stall, and tapping foot to attract attention and you can’t explain it any other way.

Furthermore how he reacted after the bust says just as much. If a cop showed me or any one I know a badge in a bathroom My first response would be to ask whats going on. Not “NO”.

Top it off with reports in the paper gathered BEFORE this incident that he had done this before and I don’t see how you can deny this. I read your blog because you cover excelent info the MSM doesn’t. How ever in this case I have to say you are off base on his intentions.

Curt you can believe what you want as to the Senator’s intentions. I tend to look at the report (police) and how the Senator plead guilty and hid it from everyone as an indication of his intentions. If it quacks like duck…

Why must you be so santamonious about Republicans v. Democrats in this situation. This is not about party but personal conduct. Craig represented himself one way and did things in another. All people were duped by this liar. If you want to spend your whole life justifying why Republicans are morally superior to Democrats go ahead, but when you do next time find a situation that a Democrat is doing wrong. I happen to be Republican and don’t view Democrats as evil or the enemy.

but I do know what his intentions were.

And you know this how?

Be that it may, if he was looking for sex he should be forced out. He will most likely resign because in the Republican party we purge those who dishonor the party while the Democrats laud them as heroes.

Dude you can’s be serious defending this scum. He plead guilty of a crime and you as a cop would know more about the legal aspects then me bro, but I do know what his intentions were. He is a creapy old man who was in an airport mens room looking for gay sex.

Anyone else find the timing of this story suspicious?

Question: What would be the #1 news item if this story wasn’t the most lurid thing out there for the “news” media to focus on?

This incident happened 10 weeks ago. Strange that it hit the “news” media the very day Hillary’s funny money scandal broke.

And in the big scheme of things which is more important: a perv as a U.S. Senator or a corrupt liar running for President and taking money from dubious sources?
