nancylebov | Senator Craig and practical epistomology

Craig, who's been accused of soliciting sex from an undercover police officer, says""I should have had the advice of counsel in resolving this matter," he said. "In hindsight, I should not have pled guilty. I was trying to handle this matter myself quickly and expeditiously."

The police are legally permitted to lie to get confessions, and a good bit of the public agrees with the policy.

While yet another Republican sex scandal is still fun, I'm forced to conclude that I don't know any more about Craig's sex life than I did before I'd heard his name.

I could hope that he'll push for better procedures in handling suspects, but I'm not counting on it.

If it hadn't been for Illuminatus!, I might have been a normal person. Ok, a relatively normal person.
