Republican Senator Larry Craig Is Looking For Summer Interns
By Logan Murphy Monday Feb 25, 2008 3:17pm
Via Wonkette: (h/t BillW)
It’s that time of year again, and the Hill is looking for 2008’s crop of ambitious, savvy whippersnappers to make up its corps of summer interns! They’ll get to organize back room deals and schmooze with the fat cats, but mostly, they’ll learn that running America isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. And if you’re a summer intern for Idaho Sen. Larry Craig, who knows what else you’ll be forced to do?
Our good senior senator from Idaho is an important man in Washington and wields power that reverberates nationwide. Just ask the salmon of Idaho River — they know what’s up. So what are the massive qualifications a young sprite needs to work for such a man? Read on...
I am curious to know what kind of response the Senator gets. I have to hand it to Craig, he stuck it out and has been an entertaining burr in the GOP saddle, but somehow I don't see many Republicans lining up to have their kids work for him. Stranger things have happened...

Wow. Now that's what I call having big brass balls. I hope to see this mocked on the Daily Show or Colbert Report.
Speaking of saddles, don't gynecologists call their foot rests stirrups?
Just because Craig may be gay that in no way means that he is a pedophile. I see this as an insult to gay men to insinuate such a thing.
Interns. Another word for Free Labor.
yikes! why not get a pedophile (gonzales) to babysit....
Well, if he hires female interns, there shouldn't be a problem, right?
Don't stall, apply today!
Start at the bottom and work your way up!
Those of narrow stance need not apply.
Why are the job interviews at the airport?
pissed off patricia @ 3:
Actually you came to that conclusion completely on your own. Nothing in the post mentions children. Had you actually read it, it clearly states that the interns are college students.
It doesn't say if the KY is supplied or whether you have to pitch or catch.
Advice to all applying interns: invest in a summer's supply of Depends undergarments. or tap shoes. your choice.

Craig and the Republicans can relocate there. Hopefully the Media Brainwashed Media can go with them.
pissed off patricia @ 3:
He's a Republican, a Bush sycophant, a closet homosexual and hypocrite. He is fair game.
Any gay men out there feeling insulted?
Applications should be submitted on toilet paper. Please wear tap shoes to interview.

Ans fudge packing?

If gay Republican Politicians keep being discovered and found out at this rate we'll probably see Gay's going straight just because it turns their stomach to be associated with Republicans.
Most interns know by now that Larry Craig is more freaky than Mark Foley, inside AND outside of the men's room.
Tell me, is Larry discussing his wide stances with the interns?
Coed bathrooms?
"Shot glasses welcome."
Um... how exactly are the dynamics here any different from when straight senators advertise for interns?
Is he tired of turning over a new page already?
"Be the
laughing stockenvy of your piers!"“For those interested in politics, it is an incredible opportunity to get a behind-the-scenes look at how our government functions while serving the people of Idaho. No Pay. Pay for own gas, food, clothing, health care. Must live local and pay own rent."
Making fun of this is like shooting fish in a barrel.
I'm taping with joy at all the possibilities.
LOL, intern AKA bathroom lookout.
That's how craiggy likes his volunteers
In turns.
ashton @ 9:
Oops, sorry. You are right. I totally missed that part about them being college students.
Sincere apologies from me to everyone.
I shall be more careful in the future, I promise.
I am kinda horny... and I've always been a bit bi-curious... hell I've always fantasized about a blow job from an old republican senator, lets see how it goes!
*e-mails resume*
DO NOT WANT
ashton @ 9:
He's a convicted sexual pervert. Does he actually NEED to be a pedophile in order for parents to be worried. Shit, I'm more offended by his politics.
Where do i sign???
Mammas, Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up to Be Interns...
This is beyond unbelievable to me, I don't know if it's stupidity, denial, or plain arrogance on Larry's part.
He stuck it out all right....
One question: Who the f*ck wants THAT on their resume?
Seriously Joementum thats a great point
Congratulations, you've gotten the intern position! Report to the restroom at 8am.
Whippersnappers? In Black History Month? More code words, no doubt. Larry, how could you?
Interns? I know there is a joke in there somewhere that fits both parties, but, Naw, ain't gonna touch it. LOL.
goatsage @ 13:
First, we should be better than that.
Second, why waste energy making shit up when you can just sit back and watch the GOP self-destruct in ways that go far beyond the imaginable?
Rusty Shackleford @ 23:
I would suggest any or all of the three definitions of the word integrity would apply.
1 : firm adherence to a code of especially moral or artistic values : incorruptibility
2 : an unimpaired condition : soundness
3 : the quality or state of being complete or undivided : completeness

Good one! P.S. Exit 7a (Robbinsville) is my old stomping grounds. Maybe I'll see you at Jim's Country Diner one Sunday morning.

I think that dress code sounds a bit oddish.
Peter G @ 10:
You'd have to be jerk to apply.
As Miss. Emily Letilla would say, "Never mind..."

No mention of pants for the males, but hosiery is required.

Just in time for the return of the writers. Saturday Night Live, The Daily Show, and Mad TV are going to have a field day.
"applicants can not be gay and must not ever have been gay"
LOL
"Must be not and never have been gay like Senator Craig."

Read the part in the fine print that states that the applicant must be open to experimenting.

Saint Augustine @ 43:
True, true. I just found Wonkette's post to be a little homophobic. Like this: "And if you’re a summer intern for Idaho Sen. Larry Craig, who knows what else you’ll be forced to do?" Kinda sounds like she's saying... well, he might just rape you. I don't know, it just seems like a cheap shot that plays on crass stereotypes. But since I don't much like either Wonkette or Larry Craig I'm not going to worry too much about it.
pissed off patricia @ 3:
I agree except for the part where:
1) he is not gay
2) he has never been gay
No admission, no insult. Sorry... :(
LOL :<[)
DAY INT
A secretary ushers APPLICANT in to the office. SENATOR CRAIG is sitting at his desk. He slides his
business card across the desk.
SEN CRAIG
Now what do you think about that?
Wait....this ad is for real? Bwahahahahahahahah! Man, the jokes really do write themselves.
and of course, don't ask ~ don't tell
ConcernedCanuck @ 53:
For those of you who are still concerned about what I said, please refer to my comment #30.
Thanks
I guess my daughter need not apply.
con't
(and she is graduating from college)
Ewwww. Just...ewwwwwwwwwwwwwww.
pissed off patricia @ 68:
Takes character to admit a mistake. You are good by me, pop!
is larry craig going to train them at the men's room
in the minn airport? teach such things as
wide stances, foot placement and lying?
Bonkers @ 72:
Thank you very much. I appreciate what you said.
To err is human, to not acknowledge it is foolish.
Skill set required: a narrow mind and a wide stance.
Interviews for the position will be held in the stalls in the men's room down the hall from his office.

Exit 7a - my old grounds as well. I miss Jersey pizza...
I see many, many applications from Glory Holins, Ima Richarownder, Robb Maibals, et al in your future Tappy...

"juniors or seniors in college, or recent graduates";
That don't sound like children to me!
Quiet Burp @ 80:
Sorry, I should have read the whole comments not just the article!
pissed off patricia @ 74:
To not acknowledge it makes you eligible to be in the Bush Administration.
pissed off patricia @ 3:
Oh dang it POP, I was going to cut a joke, but you're absolutely right.
Aaron @ 79:
And there's always Hugh G Reckshun. One of the intern's jobs is to supply the Senator's favorite meal - Sum Yung Gai.
As a rancher, southwest of Moscow, Idaho, I wouldn't let Senator Craig near my sheep, let alone my son.

Larry Craig is looking for interns. The comedy writes itself :-)
Definitions:
Gay (Homosexual) Sexual interest in same sex
Pedophile: Sexual interest in PRE-PUBESCENT children
Craig is not a Pedophile and no pre-pubescent children are applying to the position.
Craig is gay and I don't care if he screws his interns.
Over heard on the plains west of Pocotillo.
"Dad do I have to go be an intern in Craigs office?"
"Yes Son!"
"Can I enlist in the army instead?"
Send your son to intern with Larry Craig or to spend a summer at Neverland Ranch with Michael Jackson.
What to do, what to do...decisions, decisions..
Wait until the Sen. finds out his Prozac and anti gay meds don't really work.
College students are not "kids."
Larry Craig may not be someone you like but he's not a child molester.
And for the billionth time, someone you know to have had sex with someone of the same gender, or suspect they have, does not mean they are a child molester.
This post was just inviting all these comparisons and awful falsehoods. And yet here it is and not a single one of the comments tying homosexuality and pedophilia together are deleted.
Idaho's version of WILL ROGERS " LARRY NEVER MET A MAN IN A BATHROOM HE DIDN'T LIKE ".....
pissed off patricia @ 3:
It's not that he is gay. That part is fine. It's that he's a Republican.
Typical liberal propaganda. No reasonable and well-informed parent should have any problem sending his or her daughter to work for Craig. Of course, the parents of sons...
[Deleted. Off topic-Sitemonitor]
pissed off patricia @ 3:
No. You're right. It absolutley does not mean he's a pedophile, but as a gay man this story gave me a chuckle. Larry Craig deserves it, with both barrels. I don't hesitate to ridicule him or his pathetic "lifestyle". (If it were a private struggle with homosexuality, I might feel for him, but he's gone pretty public, and denied being gay, and still thinks being gay is despicable.)
goatsage @ 77:
Phil's Pizza Palace, mmmmmmmmm.
goatsage @ 13:
NOPE. Not in the least. I love Larry Craig stories. He deserves every bit of it. Bring it on.
Word to intern--don't ask about that box of cigars on the Senator's desk.
Matt in Texas @ 84:
No wonder Dick Hertz. And just to give equal time to the distaff interns - Wilma Fingerdew?

And whatever you do, don't pet the bald hamster he keeps in shoebox with a hole in one end.
t-bone @ 104:
It's Larry Craig's d*ck in a box!
Can they tap their feet?
That's the interview.....
t-bone @ 103:
Wilma Fingerdew?
.
LOL, thanks!
pissed off patricia @ 68:
Just keep a narrow stance in the stall and for God's sake don't tap your foot.
