New name for GOP

BOISE, Idaho - Idaho Sen. Larry Craig called Saturday for the GOP to be officially named as “The Gay Old Party”.

"I apologize for not getting President Bush into stall three before now and I’m deeply sorry for that," Craig said.

Although leading members of his own party had called for the no name change, Craig steadfastly resisted for days, contending it was a much better and accurate name.

President Bush called Craig and thanked him for his suggestions but said it was a difficult decision to make, said White House spokesman Scott Stanzel.

"Senator Craig made the right decision for himself, but I would not go into stall three with him, or anyone else," Bush said.
