No words. Just watch.

Via Stereogum:

Honestly, give the Daily Show a fucking Grammy.

Gay Dad Dept.
Adopted Craig children: Dad isn’t gay

Tuesday, September 4th, 2007

Stall
Peek-a-boo.

In an effort to shut down the gay rumors, Larry Craig’s children have come out blasting the press for reporting the news about their dad trolling public restrooms. The Republican senator from Idaho apparently sat down with his kids to talk about the birds and the bees, specifically that he doesn’t like other boys’ stingers. Being the good kids that they are, they stand by their dad:

“We’ve known him our whole life. He has been so trustworthy to us, so honest to us, that we believe him,” Michael Craig said.

I mean, if anyone could possibly testify that Craig is a poonanny fan, it’d be the kids resulting from Craig sexing up his lady love. Right?

Well…

Larry Craig adopted Michael and his two siblings after marrying their mother, the former Suzanne Scott, in 1983.

Seriously, though. Their dad totally likes vag.

I mean, we hate to beat that stupid, paranoid, liberal drum. But come on. How can anyone take this shit seriously?
