| 47. When the state of South Carolina seeks to put him to death for being gay |
|
I'll be right there to defend him. Being called out by the same moralist dickweeds he has pandered to for years for his own political gain is not exactly the same thing. You know there are some in the LGBT community who people in outing people as well. No one that I saw was calling for him to be punished or to resign. It's hardball politics. No one forced Mr. Graham to build a career as a right wing conservative. But he did. And as the great Super Chicken once said, "You knew the job was dangerous when you took it."
