    I never said it's a lie, I'd more accurately describe it as a delusion. I'm sure you believe it. And you're response demanding I provide proof you're "lying" is about like a delusional schizophrenic demanding I prove in one paragraph the voices in their head aren't real. I couldn't even if I were inclined, and I'm not so inclined, and even if I were capable and inclined, most delusional people cling so tightly to their delusions that all the paragraphs in the world won't convince them they are delusional.

    You do you, like Giorgio Tsoukalos. Maybe ancient astronauts really did build the pyramids and the rest of us are just sheeple. Who knows?

    this is why the Democrat party is such a joke

    if this moron doesn’t shut the hell up…

    Does he think any of them would say this for him if he was the one who passed away?

    total clown show

    Dems will do the same thing for Trump when Satan finally takes him…watch

    You're a good dude and I get not wanting to speak ill of the dead.

    We should all strive to not become like the people we hate.

    I would personally like to think he had reasons, besides hanging on to power, for behaving and voting the way he did and that maybe, just maybe, he wasn't the snake he appeared to be.

    But before you strain yourself defending him, you might consider the following (and plenty of other ****)...

    From Google: Lindsey Graham has a history of opposing LGBTQ+ equality measures during his time in Congress, often voting against equal rights and protections. Key instances include his 1996 support for the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA), which restricted federal benefits for same-sex couples. Additionally, he voted for a 2006 constitutional amendment banning same-sex marriage nationwide, opposed the 2013 Employment Non-Discrimination Act (ENDA) to protect workers from discrimination, and voted against the 2022 Respect for Marriage Act.​

    I don’t even like Ana Kasparian, but it’s hilarious seeing MAGAts crying about civility…they want people to embarrass themselves like clown Cory Booker

    I never defended "him", I argued that being a closeted homosexual is not a valid reason to shame a politician.

    I think criticizing his voting record is 100% fair game, regardless of whatever way his whistle blew.

    I hear you. None of us are perfect and it's dirty business slandering the dead. I know part of me feels sorry for the guy.

    He was still a snake though.

    I really haven't commented on him as a politician or human, you might want to re-read the exchange that prompted you to reply to me it seems like you are mistakenly drawing quite a bit by reading between lines that aren't there.

    Space ghost said dems are trying to shame him "into being gay"

    otto said people are shaming him for being closeted

    I asked otto why being closeted would be a valid reason to shame someone

    he said honesty & transparency is important from a politician

    I said sexuality, as long as it isn't illegal/immoral doesn't need to be disclosed imo, is not valid to shame one over

    And that's really been it from me, outside of saying Basso is putting on a clinic for the "right wing woke" political archetype by calling dems bigots


    Maybe you're mixing these post with the ones I made in the Mitch thread, which would make more sense.
