I'm actually surprised and a little flummoxed that liberals continue to excuse the attacks on Graham. If figured that there would be at least one or two who would say something like, "You have a point; these attacks are not acceptable; knock it off, fellow libs."

Zip, zero, nada.

You must have missed my first post.....Though if it makes you happy, fellow libs, knock it off, Graham will come out of the closet when he is ready and this election isn't about his sexuality, though it also should be noted that Graham has a better chance of winning the lottery than he does getting nominated to be the GOP candidate.

What's hypocritical about making fun of a politician? Only fascists think politicians are above satire. Very hypocritical that you seem indifferent to people making gay jokes about President Obama. You should develop a sense of humor, you don't sound happy in a country where we have freedom of speech. It's sad and bizarre that you care about, of all things, a US Senator's feeling's being hurt while being indifferent to his neocon warmongering policies.

I think that you are asking something a bit too specific and also irrelevant. Your real question is "show me one Republican organization that supports homosexuality". I am happy to oblige.

Log Cabin Republicans

I did see the post. Certainly it is homophobia to make snide remarks about someone's purported sexual orientation. Maybe the precisely right word is not homophobia (fear of homosexuals). Maybe it's just plain bigotry. But now we're into splitting hairs.

Wow, that is a rousing denunciation. You're really a stalwart in opposition to homophobia.

Do Republicans think they're fooling anybody here?

The GOP OWNS racism, sexism, and homophobia. Much of their platform is based on various xenophobias.

True, there is one openly gay organization within the GOP. Of course even the Log Cabin Republicans see bigotry within their own party and within the ranks of other conservatives.

Gay Republicans locked out of conservative conference because of 'diametrically opposed beliefs'

Maybe it is you who should be the better man and tell your fellow right wingers to "knock it off" and stop being so homophobic....has that thought ever crossed your mind or are you okay with your side owning the homophobic label?

If you left wing extremists actually cared about gay rights, you would be serious about ISIS and Islamofascism. Since you don't care one bit about gays in Islamic countries getting slaughtered for being gay, we know this is just another wedge issue you use to get votes. It works for a lot of people, but not intelligent people.
