Lindsey Graham Gay? Conservative Group ALIPAC Demands Senator 'Admit Homosexuality'

Posted: Apr 21, 2010

Now, they are attacking their own. I feel for Senator Graham. His sexuality is his business and no one elses.

William Gheen, head of the conservative, anti-"amnesty," anti-illegal immigration group Americans for Legal Immigration PAC (ALIPAC), spoke at a Greenville, S.C. Tea Party rally this weekend and called for Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) to "come out of that log cabin closet."

According to Gheen, being gay is "a secret that Lindsey Graham has."

Gheen told the crowd: "I hope this secret it isn't being used as leverage over Senator Graham, so today I think Senator Graham, you need to come forward and tell people about your alternative lifestyle and your homosexuality."

"Barney Frank is more honest and brave than you," Gheen continued, referring to the openly-gay Massachusetts congressman.

ALIPAC has posted the video titled "US Senator Graham is Gay" -- and tagged with the keywords "queer" and "fag" -- on YouTube, where various news outlets have covered it.

The group defended itself Monday, and in fact doubled down on calls for Lindsay Graham to admit his homosexuality.

In a statement, ALIPAC alleged that 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 without proper permissions or attributions."

"US Senator Lindsey Graham is gay and while many people in South Carolina and Washington DC know that, the general public and Graham's constituents do not," Gheen said in the statement. Though Gheen claimed, both in the statement and at the Tea Party rally, that he does "not care about Graham's private life," he again said that Graham must declare his supposed homsexuality "so the public can rest assured he is not being manipulated with his secret."

"I need to figure out why you're trying to sell out your own countrymen and I need to make sure you being gay isn't it," Gheen said over the weekend.

Anonymous rumors of Sen. Graham's supposed homosexuality have swirled around Washington before. In the run-up to Justice Sotomayor's confirmation hearing, Graham asked Sotomayor to explain uncredited comments about her past behavior. A blogger reactd by asking Graham to respond to anonymous speculation that he was gay.

UPDATE:

Former CNN anchor and former ALIPAC partner Lou Dobbs is "calling for William Gheen to resign after his comments/actions on Sen. Lindsey Graham's sexuality" via Twitter.

As much as I believe homosexuality to be wrong, I still believe people have the right to decide to do right or wrong. Maybe some people are ashamed of their actions and that should be between them and God. Not all people are proud of their actions and would prefer to keep them private. People who commit these acts and are proud expect everyone else who commits them to also be proud and unashamed. If you refuse to own up to your sins and be proud of them then.... harrass, harrass, harrass.... Life doesn't work this way and the sooner these "people" figure that out, the better off we will all be.

Fact challenged cons get more squirrelly every day. - Heres a few on Graham...

Wonder how they reconcile their witch hunt with his voting record?

In 1996 Graham voted for the Defense of Marriage Act. In 2004 he voted for the Federal Marriage Amendment. The gay rights group Human Rights Campaign gave him a zero rating 13 years in a row between 2005 and 2008, with ony one exception (1999), when he got a whopping 9%.

Cons are the only political group who think reducing their own numbers - is a clever election stragegy.

subscribed to the foolish notion that reducing their numbers is an effective strategy to advance a political agenda. Miss the point much?

Also, I'm not that into tit-for-tat, but in terms of ideological purity, there is no shortage of wingnut navel gazers, both domestic and abroad, engaged in the same exercise in futility.

Of course, he isn't responsible for his parents actions, but it is telling as to what his "roots" are.

My folks sold beer to anyone of legal age, but I’m sorry to say, for many of the years my parents operated the bar, black people were expected to drink the beer they purchased from us off the premi ...

How do all you religious people feel when someone who is gay, attempts suicide because they've been told since they were little that it is a sin and they will burn in hell? Gay is not a choice.

I just think it's very sad that our youth can't go to the their family with this, because they've been brainwashed into thinking they'll burn in hell. So they attempt suicide ou ...
