GOP Senator 'Not Gay'

After pleading guilty to a lesser charge following his arrest in the Minneapolis airport for lewd behavior, Idaho Sen. Larry Craig said at a recent news conference, "I am not gay. I never have been gay."

Sure. And Bill Clinton never inhaled.

When will the Republicans ever fess up to having certain needs?

"I did nothing wrong at the Minneapolis airport," he said at a news conference with his wife, Suzanne, at his side.

Craig's defiant stance came as Senate Republican leaders in Washington called for an ethics committee review into his involvement in a police sting operation this summer in the airport men's room.

"In the meantime, the leadership is examining other aspects of the case to see if additional action is required," Sen. Mitch McConnell and other top GOP lawmakers said in a written statement.

A private group, Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics, also filed a complaint with the ethics committee seeking an investigation into whether Craig violated Senate rules by engaging in disorderly conduct.
