The best blog comment on Senator Larry Craig losing his sex sting appeal . . .

You remember Larry Craig, don’t you?

Idaho Sen. Larry Craig has lost his latest attempt to withdraw his guilty plea in the Minneapolis airport men’s room sex sting that effectively ended his Senate career.

A three-judge panel of the Minnesota Court of Appeals on Tuesday rejected the Republican’s bid to toss out his disorderly conduct conviction.

Craig still has the option of appealing to the Minnesota Supreme Court, and he said Tuesday he was considering future options.

Craig was arrested June 11, 2007, by an undercover police officer who was conducting a sting operation against men cruising for gay sex at the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport.

He quietly pleaded guilty to the misdemeanor and paid a fine, but changed his mind after word of his arrest became public that August. Craig insisted he was innocent and said he was not gay. His attorney argued that the police officer misconstrued Craig’s foot-tapping, hand movements and other conduct.

Craig would later assert that his “wide stance” in the bathroom stall was responsible for the officer’s mistaken impressions.

So, the best comment I’ve seen on Craig’s latest court setback comes from Ace:

The court refused to take a wider stance.

If you needed all this set-up from me, it probably wan’t all that funny.  But if you knew the story in the beginning, it’s hilarious.  Trust me.
