A leader of the GOProud organization – a prominent group of homosexual Republicans – resigned his post this week to mount U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham.
Errr … mount a challenge to Graham (that’s obviously what we meant).
Bruce Carroll of Rock Hill, S.C. – who helped form GOProud in 2009 – wrote an oped on the website Gay Patriot this week announcing his decision.
“Over the next few weeks, I will be studying the resources, time and effort it would take to do my part in holding Lindsey Graham accountable for his voting record and his attitude toward the voters in South Carolina,” Carroll wrote. “This is important: I do not make major decisions hastily; I will take adequate time to realistically look at all of the evidence (pro and con) and consult with a diverse group of people that I trust and that also have the best interests of South Carolina at heart as I do.”
Gay people? Acting hastily?
Anyway, we will judge Carroll based on the policies he rolls out, not his sexual orientation. Unless of course his policies are terrible, in which case we will judge him based on anything we can get our hands on.
Wait … maybe that wasn’t the best choice of words …
While Carroll’s sexuality is no secret, Graham’s remains up for discussion – despite his best efforts to clear things up.
“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,” he told The New York Times Magazine in 2010. “I ain’t gay. Sorry.”
FITS readers aren’t buying it, though. According to a recent poll, 73 percent said they thought Graham was gay compared to just 27 percent who believed he was straight.
Others rumored to be contemplating a 2014 primary challenge against Graham? S.C. Sen. Tom Davis (R-Beaufort), S.C. Sen. Lee Bright (R-Spartanburg) and Lowcounty political consultant Nancy Mace.

See all you non believers! Sic Willie couldn’t care less about a person’s sexual orientation. That must be why he keeps bringing it up over and over and over.
Looks like a bunch of Hypocrites to me…

Tom is gay, Bright isn’t bright enough to be gay, and Mace is definitely gay.

Relax, Lindsey knows its technically not gay if you state “no homo” first.
Hates the taco, loves the burrito.

Davis, Mace, Carroll and Graham…they could split the Moderate-Libertarian vote so much, a Conservative wins over 50% in the Primary…
PLEASE get us a REAL Conservative in the field, and let the Libertarian-Modrates Cannibalize themselves…
Rand Paul and Tim Scott need another Conservative, not another moderate-libertarian…like Davis, Mace, Carroll and Graham…

I do NOT care if Lindsey is gay, but I DO care if he is lying about it.

Apparently, neither a man nor a woman wants Lindsey. Can’t blame them, really.

I’m showing my ignorance here, but what are those two “knitty kitties” in the photo?
I don’t know for sure, but I’m guessing that they are used to illustrate “gay”. They sure look gay.
no,dude-this is ‘gay’:http://home.comcast.net/~macksf2/Home01.jpg

Damn, man!!!!! That is fucking gross! The only gay I do is lesbians, if/when I can convince them I’m a lesbian, too.
you’re in macho denial.i can tell a beautiful woman when i see one,and have had sex with several,but males in the US,are programmed to say things,like ‘gross’ in response to masculine images,unless,that is,you’re into ,’twinks’…

there are 2 problems with lindsey graham being gay and denying it. 1) his fear of being found out leaves him wide open to blackmail and control- which is what is obviously happening and explains EVERYTHING about the way he operates politically. and 2) He is dependant on the sheer cluelessness and ignorance of his constituency, who most are EXTREMELY prejudiced AGAINST homsexuals. ergo he operates his entire platform by hoodwinking an entire constituency that engages in willfully self-decetion (about his homosexuality) which allows him to multiply thaat effect many times in the service of his controllers/blackmailers and their many nefarious for-profit operations such as warmongering, terrorism, military-industrial neo-colonial vampire imperialism, health care/insurance collusion- the promotion of drug companies/fake health care= MAINSTREAM drugdealing, and the lists go on and on. i’m not suggestingmost high ranking politicians arent sell out whores, just that graham, as a fear of exposure-obsessed, closet dwelling homosexual is much more effectively, not only controlled, but highly motivated to put the interest of his “patrons” (read blackmailers) above his constituents- who he knows for sure are willing to believe almost all his transparent lies as long as they can hear obvious racist hatred in his voice and can smell the blood of innocents on him from his most recent ritual human sacrifice.
That was deep and an excellent post. I Have a male friend who is gay and he says gay-dar says yes…100%.
