I have occasionally heard women say (or said it myself), "Hey, has anyone got any toilet paper?" and from down a couple of stalls comes a "yeah, hang on!" and then from under or over a hand appears with a bunch of sheets. Lots of gratitude.

Maybe Craig just needed some toilet paper.

It does seem an odd thing to do when you don't know the person next to you- too likely to result in someone knocking you on your ass, as a PFPer said he did to a man once when he was propositioned. Either men engage in this more than we know, or could the agent have done something that signalled his own interest? But that would be entrapment, yes?

"Misconstruing" has the sound of desperation.

I just find Senator Craig's explanation of the arrest to be completely unbelievable. He says his behavior was misconstrued.

Does he say what he did? I also find it hard to believe that one can accidentally be accused of soliciting sex in a men's room. What's his claim, that he was just doing his fellow man a service by trying to help the undercover cop zip up, or something!? :-)

Another bally hoo into something that should be private and
a sting operation at that. Wow. Politics at it's worst.

No, I don't like Craig. He is a hypocrite and I am glad that someome like him who is filled with so much venom against a minority... I particularly am refering to his not allowing gays to serve in the military...... is caught to show
that a lot of persons who talk about morality and put themselves up as role models fall short.
