Graham: GOP Should Take Gay Marriage Constitutional Amendment Out of Platform - NBC News
Graham is right, but he's the wrong messenger. A bachelor running for President with a closet full of rumours about his sexuality is not the one to be focusing on the issue - that's not kind, but it's political reality.
Graham is right on most issues. Not all, but most. I've always liked him, even when he was in the House of Representatives, and hope he's at least part of the GOP ticket, if not at the top then VP. He has a great mind when it comes to foreign policy, international relations, the military as well as social policy (as seen in the OP's article).
As for his sexual orientation, it would not surprise me in the slightest that he would turn out to be gay. And, not only would I not be surprised, but it would not change my opinion of him or my respect for him in the slightest.
Beau! It's so good to see you. I've missed you.
Graham is right on most issues.
Excluding foreign policy, of course.
I disagree, but that's why we are here in the first place.
Graham thinks that Iraq's troubles started with Obama, and really anyone who thinks that doesn't belong a foreign policy debate.
Not really what he thinks. Too simplistic.

I think Santorum's comments on the issue were more valuable. He said, to paraphrase, that he disagrees with the Supreme Court decision, has disagreed with many of their decisions, but this is now the law of the land and conservatives believe strongly in the rule of law. Considering his Christian conservative credentials, those comments carry more weight, in my opinion.
Did not catch that quote - if he did say that, what an artful and astute retreat from a contentious issue, from an equally unlikely person.
That's fair, and true - but politics in the US is a blood sport and who the message carrier is is often more important than the message they carry.

Good point. I haven't heard of him (Santorum) making this statement. In fact, I'm extremely surprised to hear it, given his evangelical roots.
I was surprised to hear it too - I was trying to find the clip on the CNN site but didn't come up with it. He appeared to have mellowed since we last saw him in action 4 years ago.
