The toe tapping lessons will be an added benefit...

Thanks for Los Angeles Times blogger Andrew Malcolm for catching on this Sen. Larry Craig item, which he picked up on from The Washington Post's Sleuth blog:

Sen. Larry Craig of Idaho is looking for some college interns to work in his Senate office this summer. Parents, what do you think?...
Craig's news release last week says, "Interns have the chance to be an essential part of a working congressional office. They participate in the legislative process as well as ensure that constituent services run smoothly."

Last weeks' Craig news item was the increasing cost of prosecuting him for lewd conduct in the now-famous Minneapolis Airport men's room stall shown above. While some wonder why the state keeps spending money on this, I'm more curious why he stays in office despite having disgraced his state and destroyed his career.

Craig's Washington office, by the way, is in the Hart Senate Office Building, the newest and most modern of the Senate buildings. It has the nicest men's rooms, too...
