Court Takes Wide Stance, Rejects Bathroom Goblin's Motion to Withdraw

Buried in in the Blagojevich avalanche we find the following:

Larry Craig, not surprisingly, isn’t happy a Minnesota court rejected his attempt to withdraw the guilty plea in his airport bathroom sex case.

His statement: “I am extremely disappointed by the action of the Minnesota Court of Appeals. I disagree with their conclusion and remain steadfast in my belief that nothing criminal or improper occurred at the Minneapolis airport. I maintain my innocence, and currently my attorneys and I are reviewing the decision and looking into the possibility of appealing. I would like to thank all of those who have continued to support me and my family throughout this difficult time.”

I will be extremely disappointed if he doesn’t appeal. Way to keep it in the news Larry!

From ThinkProgress:

Additionally, the “court upheld the government’s power to ban ’sexual solicitations’ in a public restroom, rejecting Craig’s claim that the law violates freedom of expression.”

What about my right to crap in peace?

@Mixter - I didn't coin "bathroom goblin", but I stole it fair and square.
