This just in: Larry Craig says he's not gay.
After watching the hour-long interview that Matt Lauer conducted with Sen. Larry Kraig, R-Idaho, I can say that I probably know less than I did before. Lauer had him. Right there. He could have asked him anything. He could have stared the senator down and asked him "Why would anyone believe what you've told us?" or maybe "Why don't you just admit that you're a homosexual" or even "Your story in no way reflects the police report or what you said immediately after the arrest."
No. Nope. Not even close.
Instead, the infotainer asked him if his kids had "tough questions" for Craig after they heard the news or how Suzanne Craig felt after hearing the news from her husband two months after the initial arrest in the airport bathroom.
Well, she was sad. Or something, I stopped listening soon after. We've heard their sob story before. I'm not gay. My husband loves me. Of course I randomly picked a restroom known as a gay-sex hotspot and performed the necessary actions to invite such an act in a public restroom. But, seriously, I'm not gay.
Lauer gets some credit for asking the senator if he's actually bisexual. Not great journalism. But funny.
Come on, Matt. There's softball and then there's T-ball. Next time, why don't we have Larry Craig ask the questions, that might make it a little less awkward for you.
