And this is the end of the story…right?
Less tame are the blogosphere monikers, like “Miss Lindsey,” that play off of Graham’s never-married status. During a South Carolina Tea Party rally this spring, one speaker created an uproar by postulating that Graham supported a guest-worker program out of fear that the Democrats might otherwise expose his homosexuality. (Graham smirked when I brought this up. “Like maybe I’m having a clandestine affair with Ricky Martin,” he said. “I know it’s really gonna upset a lot of gay men – I’m sure hundreds of ‘em are gonna be jumping off the Golden Gate Bridge – but I ain’t available. I ain’t gay. Sorry.”)

I’m bawling my eyes out.
he has a serious case of gayfaceYeah, cuz all the gaybois love it when their Senators have a 0% LGBT friendly record. Turns me on for sure. I think I’m gonna go jump off that bridge now…
Two wordsyeah, right.
Discuss?What more needs to be said?
Well, I will say that I won’t be jumping into the Chicago River anytime because Miss Graham said that she’s not available for a gay man like me.
I don’t think I’ll even shed a tear.
Why…are there so many gay republican freakazoids! What a twisted lot they are.
Methinks the laddie doth protest too muchFine, he doesn’t identify as gay. That does not mean he isn’t schtupping (or getting schtupped by) other men. And did he really mean to let slip his fantasies about hot Latin men who until recently were deep in the closet?
I’ve alwaysliked Ricky Martin, so on his behalf I’d like to express my thanks (and relief).
…Look, if he is gay, someone needs to out him, because he is against repealing DADT. He said as much yesterday towards the end of Kagan’s questioning at the Senate hearings, when they were discussing her actions as Dean of Harvard Law.
BTW, yesterday, talking about abortion he pretty much was arguing that science should be taken into consideration for overturning precedent. Granted he was talking about abortion, but the same principle would apply across the board. (I hope he gets quoted in some decision about LGBT equality.)
He completely, totally, and unequivocally denied that he’s gay.That’s more than Queen Latifah has done and I’ve read that her refusal to confirm or deny her homosexual relationship with her longtime exclusive same-sex companion/co-home owner means she’s not officially gay. So this strong denial from Graham — who isn’t publicly linked with any man in any way at all — must mean that he is definitely officially not gay.
An excellent example of how the 20th Century notions of “the closet”, “in” and “out” don’t apply in the 21st Century.
Maybe he’s a homosexualBut he’s certainly not gay — in any sense of the word.
Sorry, LindseyBut I like my men a whole lot more butch than you.
For that matter, I like my femme men friends a whole lot more than you.
You may not be available (ha)
You may not be gay (HA)
But you damn sure are sorry – a sorry excuse for a human being, if nothing else.
Lindsey Graham and Steve LargentMy South Carolina sources tell me the reason why Lindsey is not available because he is the lover of former member of Congress and republican (of course) Steve Largent–also a former NFL football player too. They have been seen in an embrace in the back of a D.C. cab….wrap your minds around that one!
Largent’s Football Career (he was a tight end)Can not resist the double entrendres…http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steve_Largent
Check out the wiki page on Largent
HmmmWould someone in his position really know anything about Rickey Martin coming out? Or even who Ricky Martin is? I would wager that NO.
So either he is gay and practiced this answer. Or some consultant told him it is a good comeback. Either way, something fishy.
As an NFL fan…I have to say that while I have NEVER heard rumors of Graham and Largent…
OMG, I just went to check out that wiki page, CaptainAlpha12.
Largent gives you more gay face than even a former Hall of Fame NFL quarterback (who teams with a “buck” in the broadcast booth, lol).
Oh. My. God.
Here’s some football pornLouise loves this stuff…and I’m jonesin’…two months until football season starts

Known for Several YearsA very good Dem politico friend of mine, who resides in Greenville, SC now (lived in D.C. for +20 years) has told me this tale. She in fact, can not believe they have not been outed yet….when the rumors were flying about Graham last fall–the Mark Sanford “Luv Guv” debacle overshadowed those developments (too much hot sex going on in SC). You can’t keep secrets anymore.
I LOVE ITLargent was a great tight end? He had beautiful hands, as they say in the game.
Of course, I am one of those football dykes and my partner HATES football. As a girl, I used to beat the crap out of the boys playing football until I was 12 or 13 years old. I love it and I am not a convert to soccer, the other football, although I witnessed it up close and personal while living in Europe. I love classic football–college and the pros….and it is so homoerotic–there have to be many gay football players.
How does that line go?
“Just when I thought I was out… they pull me back in.”
Kisses!
But in all fairnessThat is one of the NASTYASSEDEST hits. DAMN.
(Did you HAVE to pick a shot against a Giant, kev? REALLY??)
