National Organization Asks US Senator Lindsey Graham To Admit Homosexuality
Quote
The national border security organization known as Americans for Legal Immigration PAC (ALIPAC) is officially calling for US Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC) to make his homosexual lifestyle public knowledge in the interest of political integrity and national security.
ALIPAC's President, William Gheen, addressed Graham's homosexuality in a speech before thousands of Tea Party supporters on Saturday, April 17, 2010, in Greenville South Carolina where Lindsey Graham has offices. A brief clip of Gheen's speech, which is out of proper context, has already gone viral on YouTube and been reported by Keith Olberman on MSNBC, Metro Weekly, The Guardian, and Metro Weekly without proper permissions or attributions.
I KNEW it!!!!

The attack on Graham was at one of the most rapid tea parties to date.
Quote
A Tea Party rally in Greenville, South Carolina over the weekend took some of the Tea Party's violent rhetoric to new levels, with speakers attacking everything from President Obama's citizenship to Sen. Lindsey Graham's sexuality.

I have no idea what Graham's orientation is, but quite clearly the folks attacking him are vile and violent in their rhetoric.

Rabid, right? I was trying to imagine a rapid one, and came up with "we couldn't accually get a permit to use the park, so if you would all put five bucks in the box for SarahPAC, I'll see you at Denny's in a week.
The police said they would be ticketing cars parked for more than 15 minutes."

Accually, as one might say, that's very funny.

I think rapid applies. The tea partiers are prone to premature denunciation.

Oh, so that's why I'm always apprehensive that one of them is going to shoot by accident.

I don't care for Lindsey Graham, but these tea partiers have absolutely no right demand this of Senator Graham.

This is not about the tea baggers invasion of Lindsey Graham's privacy, or his own honesty or dishonesty. I just love it when the wing nuts eat each other. Poor dear perhaps closeted Lindsey deserves his tea bagging constituents. They deserve him.
This is some delicious schadenfreude.

My response was the same as Jamie's: It cracked me up watching the crazies cannibalize their own. Amazing. Yes, they deserve one another.
