I'd think that Lindsey would steer clear of discussing gay topics.
Polygamy? Murder? Lindsey Graham’s Anti-Gay Marriage ‘Debate’ Deserves Rebuke | The New Civil Rights Movement
Republican U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham last night used polygamy and murder to define the boundaries of the debate on same-sex marriage, just as Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia used murder and bestiality to define the area of debate in which same-sex marriage should exist. Invoking issues like murder, bestiality, and polygamy is offensive and wholly facetious, and facile, as Piers Morgan responded. Senator Graham also blamed the media for the publics embrace of marriage equality, and when all was said and done stated he believes the states should have the right to decide who marries and who does not, especially because in his home state of South Carolina, religion is the reason were not going to change the definition of traditional marriage.
Graham, who says the media paints LGBT people as funny, charming, and kind as if thats problematic says he doesnt hate, he just feels traditional marriage is best for society, and challenged CNN host Piers Morgan to pass a constitutional amendment if he wants same-sex couples to be able to marry.
Morgan attacked Senators Graham, McCain, and Lieberman as unAmerican for their views on marriage equality.
