1. I don't give a damn if he's gay or not. His voting record is abominable.

8. There is much speculation because...
1) At 52, he has never married.

2) Interview questions about his personal and home life are consistently deflected rather than answered.

3) He is a Republican with a vociferous record of opposition to gay rights.

4) He is seen keeping social company with other men and only rarely with women.

5) Rumors that he prefers men are not new; they have been around for decades (much like similar rumors about Tom Foley and Larry Craig.)

In short, some say that Lindey Graham is gay because of the preponderance of evidence, none of which is individually conclusive.

12. If He's Gay...
...that's gonna be a real problem for him eventually. He's a reserve JAG in the Air Force, has been for many years.

It could be that he's just one of these asexual types who really likes to work...so much so that marriage is not an option. I've known several people like this over the years.

Information technology is full of them. It's a kind of obsession.

13. I've seen here at DU that Bush is gay, Rummy, Condi, Fred Phelps,
Rush Limbaugh, and any other evil bastard that can be thought of. Someone always starts an OP that their problem is that they must be gay.

Freakin' annoying and stupid.

16. Usually the issue is republicon hypocrisy about sexuality
Not that someone is gay, but that their private life does not correspond to their public statements.

That's the hot button for most of the posts on DU - hypocrisy.

28. Sigh. As expected.
Of course, it's the hypocrisy. :sarcasm:

Own it. Straight people are assholes sometimes. Get over it and accept the facts.

27. Precisely.
Seems the narrow minded straight people of the world like to project when one of their own is a fucktard. They should pwn their own fucktards and atone for it instead of blaming us. That's just lame.

19. i don't care and yes his voting record is awful but the word "Gay" is thrown around here
as an insult, even if posters don't think it's insulting, it really is. I wish people would stop equating "Gay" with bad.

20. My mom in South Carolina has called him "Miss Lindsey" for years...
with very good reason.
Me? I prefer "Gomer"
Seriously, people have known forever that he is gay.

24. "with very good reason" - surely you don't condone mom calling a presumed gay man "Miss"?

25. With Mother's Day approaching, how could I criticize my mom?
However, I have tried to convince her that "Gomer" is better due to Graham's accent and that whole...y'know...Jim Nabors thing
