Notice how quiet Lindsey Graham, David Dreier & Norm Coleman are re: Coulter's "Faggot" Remark?
Ann Coulter, the darling of the right wing uses the term "faggot" and John McCain, Rudy Giuliani and even Mitt Romney condemn it...

But where, oh where is anything from the closeted homosexuals in Congress named Lindsey Graham, David Dreier and Norm Coleman?

Do they approve of the word "faggot" being used as it was?

Why doesn't someone, anyone, in the press ask them what they think about Coulter's comments?

If they condemn them, they run the risk of being outed by an angry Coulter.

Hey Coleman! Hey Dreier! Hey Graham! What about the word "faggot"?

2. In this case it was a sexual slur but I think FOX and the Republicans are
guilty of across-the-board bigotry. The subject could be women or race or sexual orientation -- they don't even seem to care what the subject is, so long as they can use it as an occasion to smear a Democrat.

5. Wait, I knew that Dreier and Graham are closet cases
But where did you get that Norm Coleman is gay, I never heard that before in my life.

6. I make no claims about Norm Coleman's sex life.
I don't know for shit about Norm Coleman's sex life.

I do know he's sitting in Paul Wellstone's Senate seat, and that pisses me off.

8. Well, no matter what, Dahlen, welcome to DU.
I owed you that welcome and dropped the ball when I should have extended it.

Glad to have you aboard, and I'll look forward to your posts.

All good wishes.

16. Norm Coleman can have sex with anybody he wants to as far as I'm
concerned.

If I were a Minnesotan, I'd register as a Democrat and vote for his Democratic opponent, but not on the basis of Norm's private life.

17. I just find the hypocrisy stunning.
I'd rather not know what he's doing behind closed doors. It's none of my darn business.

I hope Al Franken kicks his ass out of the senate!

18. Al could do it. I think there's plenty of resentment of Coleman sitting
in Paul Wellstone's seat to inspire Democrats to turn out in large numbers.

13. Coleman and his wife have long had separate lives.
Edited on Fri Mar-09-07 10:14 AM by blm
The talk in Minnesota the last ten years is that there is a reason for it that no one will discuss publically.

Graham benefits from the polite silence in SC - even the Bob Jones crowd will make sure he gets the votes and stays quiet about his closeted life in exchange for power in the GOP.

12. Ken Mehlman's choked on this matter, too.
Must be something he swallowed.

20. Norm is a well known womanizer
His dalliances and grabby hands are well known and date back to when he was a democrat. He has fathered at least one child out of wedlock. But your point is certainly well taken.

21. I honestly think I have landed in bizarro world
Could we make up a more preposterous episode? The latest is Ann says now it had nothing to do with gays and the person honored at the conference turns out to be a gay porn star. One hopes that these people can live with themselves, for I sure wouldn't be living with them.
