Larry Craig Pens Tell-All Restroom Sex Scandal Memoir!

The Idaho bathroom goblin who won America’s heart will write a book about his totally straight adventures once he’s safely retired from the Senate. He told a local news station that the book will probably take a year or so to write and edit. In the meantime, he’s beginning to look into post-Senate job options — and because he’s Larry Craig, he manages to make it all sound incredibly filthy and wrong.

He said he is having a number of “one way conversations” – right now he can’t engage potential jobs due to Senate ethics rules, but can listen to offers.

So Larry Craig is indulging in a series of creepy “one-ways” while America waits for him to MAKE IT STOP, the end, Wonkette is forming a Book Club post haste.

Craig to write book for release next year [KTBV.com]

    Let us try to comment again. And by “us,” I mean “me.”

    What a great week for literature: Scott McClellan and Larry Craig. It’s like Fitzgerald and Hemingway in 1935, or something.

    Maybe not.

  5. Odder says at 1:43 pm, May 29th, 2008

    When I see someone having a one way conversation, I usually cross the street to avoid them.

    Testes. Testes. One, two…three?

  8. Dave J. says at 1:49 pm, May 29th, 2008

    “Senator Craig confirmed reports that 99% of these “one-ways” are located at the “Big Steer rest-stop” outside of Boise, and involve a large bearded gentleman named Earl.”

  9. My old Gawker login was byproxy says at 1:50 pm, May 29th, 2008

    Will it be a how-to manual, then?

  10. NotAnEvilLobbyist says at 1:50 pm, May 29th, 2008

    The conversations are typically one way because Larry’s mouth is always full with another man’s penis.

    Great, I already screwed up my first attempt to create an account.

    I can’t wait for the mouthbreathing weirdos (I mean, ever weirder weirdos than us’ns) to figure out that any old schizophenic can comment now. That’s going to be fun.

  13. AngryBlakGuy says at 1:53 pm, May 29th, 2008

    …in the time honored way of passing information onto one another the entire book will be written on the wall of a bathroom stall! Right next to the “To get your dikk sucked call…” writing.

  14. Rev. Peter Lemonjello says at 1:54 pm, May 29th, 2008

    Is it too much to hope for a pop-up book?

  15. AngryBlakGuy says at 1:57 pm, May 29th, 2008

    …an instructional guide to tap dancing maybe?

    or

    …”How to pick-up men in public restrooms for DUMMIES”

  16. Ken Layne says at 1:59 pm, May 29th, 2008

    Hooray … I see a bunch of you have already made it through the WormHole.

  17. Pop Socket says at 2:03 pm, May 29th, 2008

    @PeteJayhawk v2.0: I’m in but while trying to register all my sock puppets and dopplegangers I kept getting the Painting Perez error screen which makes me a little worried about just what dingy crack-pipe infested neighborhood we’ve moved to just because Daddy and Mommy got a divorce and Mom can’t afford a decent apartment because that cheating bastard won’t pay his child support on time so we can get nice things like a preview button and user profiles.

  18. sweetladyirony says at 2:04 pm, May 29th, 2008

    Tap shoes hanging from the hook of a restroom stall as the cover image. That shit will be FLYING off the Barnes & Noble bargain table.

    @AngryBlakGuy: You have to roll your own. My years spent acquiring basic familiarity with the <a href=’ tag are finally paying off. I knew those skilz I got blogwhoring on Haloscan comment systems would come in handy someday.

  23. RonaldReagansHair says at 2:15 pm, May 29th, 2008

    Well crap. I had gotten used to my old identity, but that doesn’t seem to work anymore. I guess as long as we have all lost all our peeps, I might as well start over.

  24. weirdiowasculpture says at 2:15 pm, May 29th, 2008

    When does Mark Foley’s book come out?

  25. Godless Liberal * says at 2:16 pm, May 29th, 2008

    I already received an advance copy. Unfortunately, I cannot provide a review since all the pages are stuck together.

  26. SayItWithWookies says at 2:17 pm, May 29th, 2008

    Does he have a title yet? I’m thinking “The Stall and the Fury.”
    @AngryBlakGuy: You fake it. Get the url from the line beneath the sig you want to reply to (the one that has the date & time of the post) and add this (use HTML brackets instead of [ and ]:

    Will it be in regular fiction, or the Gay & Lesbian section?

  28. V572625694 says at 2:21 pm, May 29th, 2008

    Godless Liberal–did you award yourself a star? Nicely done! I know I’ll never be worthy.

  29. Harvey Birdman says at 2:21 pm, May 29th, 2008

    Work, goddamnit!

    Sorry, was talking to the knob gobbler.

  30. Gopherit v2.0 says at 2:26 pm, May 29th, 2008

    Jesus, please let it have worked this time.

  31. Godless Liberal * says at 2:26 pm, May 29th, 2008

    @V572625694: Yep, and I want a nickel from everybody else who gives themselves a star in a similar fashion.

    I figure whatever I did to earn the first one, I’ll never be able to do again so it’s time I hooked myself up.

  32. AngryBlakGuy says at 2:26 pm, May 29th, 2008

    …lets see if this works, if it does I apologize for the visual

  33. SayItWithWookies says at 2:28 pm, May 29th, 2008

    My entry in the title-the-book contest: “The Stall and the Fury.”

  34. somanyjackets says at 2:29 pm, May 29th, 2008

    Shorts did not make it through the wormhole. Hi everybody! I now have somanyjackets!

  35. V572625694 says at 2:30 pm, May 29th, 2008

    Godless Liberal: great idea. I tried it with the double-dagger and the Spanish upsdie-down exclamation mark in my screen-name, but it blows the whole site up in an interesting way.

  36. Whiskeybaby says at 2:30 pm, May 29th, 2008

    I love that one of the security question options is “First Kiss”. Um, what are you supposed to put there?
    Yes, I promise I have had one?
    Wet?
    Strangely unsatisfying?
    With my brother? (Ha! I can only bear to say that because I don’t have a brother.)

    Anyway…the new Wonkette scares me, but only because I fear change.

  37. Fferret says at 2:31 pm, May 29th, 2008

    Woohoo! Commenting enabled and verified! Larry needs a new pair of tap shoes, apparently.

  38. friendlynerd says at 2:32 pm, May 29th, 2008

    Heh heh. Goblin. We all know what he likes to gobble.

  39. Whiskeybaby says at 2:32 pm, May 29th, 2008

    Also, couldn’t find my old avatar anywhere so now I’ve got this stupid one. Perhaps I should consider branching out into something other than dumb cat pictures.
    On second thoughts, nah.

  40. SayItWithWookies says at 2:35 pm, May 29th, 2008

    @WhiskeyBaby: Don’t fear change. After Dubya fixes the economy, it might be all we have left.

  41. StupidGeek says at 2:39 pm, May 29th, 2008

    I’m scared, too. Where are the stars? How am I supposed to know who is funny?

  42. El Bombastico says at 2:41 pm, May 29th, 2008

    I do not care who is making out with John Mayer!! I do not care about the new pop album from Heidi Montag! Stop tormenting me, Perez Hilton!

    Oh wait.. did this work?

  43. metropolitan says at 2:42 pm, May 29th, 2008

    that book will make great bathroom reading.

  44. Whiskeybaby says at 2:43 pm, May 29th, 2008

    Wookies, you make a good point. How do you reply on this motherflipping thing?

  45. blogfather says at 2:50 pm, May 29th, 2008

    Rickushay here: I decided to recreate myself from a hiphop spelling of ricochet to an old college fraternity nickname. I think of it as a promotion.

    I dont fear change. I do, however, fear the reaper despite BOC’s suggestion not to.

    wow. i made it! and larry craig can go peddle his book to all the sheeples in idaho, cause that’s who’ll be reading it.

    (open)a href=”(URL here)”(close)CommentersName(open)/a(close).

    The new book title is “Senate Seat or Toilet Seat” and here’s his theme song:

    (Special thanks to the Village People “In the Navy”)

    Where can you go Horatio

    To give a cop felatio

    Search the world for blowjobs

    Behind every bathroom stall

    Where can you begin to make your dreams all come true

    In the can or on the sea

    Where can you learn to lie

    Play some footsie and jive

    Study choosing toilet seats

    Sign up for the Senate

    Or sit in the grandstand

    You’re not gay to tap your feet…

    (Chorus)
    IN THE SENATE
    WE CAN DO WHAT WE PLEASE
    IN THE SENATE
    WE GET DOWN ON OUR KNEES
    IN THE SENATE
    IF YOUR PLANE’S RUNNING LATE
    IN THE SENATE
    FIND SOMEONE TO FELATE
    IN THE SENATE
    AND STILL GET TO THE GATE
    IN THE SENATE
    IN BETWEEN QUORUM CALLS
    IN THE SENATE
    WE GET BLOWN IN THE STALLS
    IN THE SENATE
    YOU CAN MAKE A QUICK CONNECTION
    WITH AN OFFICER’S ERECTION
    AND STILL HAVE TIME TO MAKE IT TO YOUR PLANE
    IN THE SENATE
    YOU CAN SIT IN THE CAN
    IN THE SENATE
    WHERE YOU CAN JOIN YOUR FELLOW MAN
    IN THE SENATE
    WHEN WE’RE DONE WITH DEBATE
    IN THE SENATE
    FIND SOMEONE TO FELATE
    IN THE SENATE
    SAY YOU’RE STRAIGHT WHEN YOU’RE NOT
    IN THE SENATE
    JUST TRY NOT TO GET CAUGHT
    IN THE SENATE
    WHERE’S A STRAIGHT MAN TO GO
    FOR A BLOW – BLOW – BLOW -BLOW!!!

    @Huffin:

    If I could still post whore diamonds, I would give you many, many whore diamonds. I would also care to ask whether you just spent like, your entire night doing that, or you pulled it out from someone’s ass. Either way: BRILLIANCE, ILLUMINATION and ECSTACY.

    Might be a book of Tap Tap jokes.

  72. oracle says at 9:57 pm, May 29th, 2008

    To the liberal hypocrites:
    If he was a Democrat, would you care, or would you shove this under the rug, like you did with Barney Frank and his underage prostitution ring?
    “Move on, move on.”
    If Craig is gay, how is his behavior creepy, filthy and wrong, when you support gays who fit your political ilk when they engage in the same or similar behavior in public areas?

    Your hate will kill you.

    I hope to Sweet Jeebus that he doesn’t think I’m doing the movie adaptation with him.

    1. I ain’t shaving…. unless he can score me a threesome with Steve Kmetko and Greg Lubedanus.

    2. I’m not going back to a 40-inch waist and giving up inches off my biceps, chest, and quads.

    3. Larry was kinda cute in a creepy, self-loathing neocon way back in the day; but now he’s just gross in a creepy, self-loathing neocon way.

    I suggest he look for work at at agay whorehouse in Bankok or Shanghai!
    I’m sure there are lots of tasteless Asian gays who’d like to say they
    did it with a US senator! This could be a post-presidential job for
    GWB as well!

  85. zhubajie says at 11:46 am, June 12th, 2008

    It’s rather hard to write naturally about sex, although Casanova managed
    it. I fear that this thing, even if true, will be as boring as _My
