Senator Larry Craig Finds A New Use For Carry On Luggage at MSP

Looks like Idaho Senator Larry Craig is being pushed to the brink of resignation. This week the Senator said he regretted his guilty plea in an alleged lewd airport restroom incident at the Minneapolis Airport back in June -- he was bagged in a sting.

According to the police report released this week, the incident in question began with Craig peering into the undercover officer's stall several times through the crack in the door.

Then, the Senator, reportedly, entered the stall next to the undercover officer and blocked the view from the front of the stall with his luggage.

When he was seated, Mr. Craig tapped his right foot in a signal used by people wishing to engage in lewd conduct, the report said.

After the officer moved his own foot up and down, the report said, Mr. Craig moved his right foot so that it touched the side of the officer's left foot under the stall divider. Mr. Craig also reportedly swiped his left hand under the stall three times before the officer held his police identification down by the floor so Mr. Craig could see it.

It is important to note that after his arrest, the Senator denied any sexual intent. It is also important to note that there is Fox News store at MSP International. And it should be noted that WiFi is free at MSP, sort of, which is convenient for these type of travel missed connections stories, though it seems this connection was made.
