He didn't say it was his business in your link. He said it is for the people to decide and since polygamy is also a thing then it could be decided as well. Or do you have an issue with polygamy? That is none of your business either. You failed.

It reminds me of the situation with Sen. Larry Craig. When partisan alignment calls for it, oodles of homophobia comes tumbling out from the blogosphere. Or Sarah Jeong of the NYT and her racist slurs.

Liberals, when are we going to learn? Our ID politics just blew up in our own faces again.

Its his life let him live it .I don't believe anyone here minds if you were Transgender.

I'm not sure where the author of this article is getting "homophobic conspiracy" from. It's a gay Democrat tweeting about some random Republican who apparently told the gay Democrat that Graham is being blackmailed by Russia over a "pretty serious sexual kink." Within the tweet, the gay Democrat says that this unnamed Republican does not believe that Lindsey Graham is being blackmailed over his sexual orientation, which the gay Democratic offhandedly describes as "an open secret."


Where was the homophobia in there? I guess stating an opinion that someone is gay is homophobic now? In fact, that's not even what happened here. He's writing that it's an "open secret," as in that Graham hasn't come out publicly, but all the insiders know.

My 2 cents: I've never really thought he was gay. I get the "awkward bachelor" vibe from him, if anything.

And he sort of gives off an asexual vibe too. Not that it's anyone's business, either way.

The criticism/mocking/jokes about Graham aren't about his sexual orientation, it his unwillingness to admit or be open, therefore seemingly ashamed of, his sexual orientation.

He would never have been elected in South Carolina if he was openly gay.
As long as it only involves consenting adults, he doesn’t need to explain or define his love/sex life to anyone. If he is gay there nothing for him to “admit” unless he is dating or married to YOU.

Apparently the Democrat cabal is shows respect towards LGBT rights only if you are a Democrat.

Maybe only if you are not a hypocrite who can be compromised by staying in the closet when we all know who his is.

For God's sake, its 2019. He should be shamed, by all citizens, but not for his private life; for continually placing party over country!
