C'mon, pull my string

Finally, a gift for the man who has everything. The good (and demented) people at stupid.com have just introduced the brand new Talking Senator Larry Craig Action Figure for $34.99. After being arrested for soliciting sex in an airport bathroom earlier this year, pleading guilty and then attempting to retract his confession once the story leaked to the media, the Republican politico has now been immortalized in plastic.

Standing a respectable 12" and wearing a t-shirt emblazoned with the senator's four favorite words, "I Am Not Gay," the doll is not anatomically correct. But, as the site says, "his limbs are bendable, so you can put him in all sorts of poses... even the famous "wide stance" the Senator refers to."

Better yet, just pull the string and the doll confides "thank you all very much for coming out today. I will read a statement: 'I am not gay. I never have been gay.'" Believe it or not, this is preferable to what happens when you pull the doll's finger...
