State to yank plates from man who claimed sex with Larry Craig

[PageOneQ]

As the result of a complaint from an unnamed citizen, the Commonwealth of Virginia has ordered David Phillips, the man who recently claimed to have a sexual encounter with scandalized Senator Larry Craig, to turn in his vanity license plates, reports the Washington Post's Marc Fisher Sunday. The Washington Post article does not connect Phillips with his earlier claim.

Phillps tells Wonkette that his encounter with the Senator, described as "clumsy and unremarkable," happened during his college days in the Spring of 1987. He had met Craig among a group of, as he describes, "closeted neocons" that regularly cruised younger men at a now defunct Washington gay bar called La Cage aux Follies.

4. what did the vanity plate say, PoleAPol

5. The article said it was "POOFTER"

"POOFTER," defined by Merriam-Webster as a "usually disparaging" British slang term referring to a gay man.

[pitohui]

14. if that's the best they can do to harass the guy...

he must be the greatest citizen in the history of the state and it makes me even more inclined to believe his story against the word of mr craig, known liar and flip-flopper

heh

15. A late night kick

because this doesn't seem right. Is it just a coincidence that someone who has allegedly had a sexual encounter with US Senator and talks about it has his license plates taken away?
