Frenzied Left stooping to homophobia to bash Kavanaugh supporter Lindsey Graham

Lindsey Graham, who is unmarried, has occasionally been derisively accused of being gay by critics and pundits who engage in homophobia by using homosexuality as an implicit insult.

. . . Kimmel then engaged in gay-bashing, comparing Graham to Liberace, a famous gay performer.
“And once he got some camera time–somebody must have told Lindsey Graham that Donald Trump was watching because he lit up like someone left a thumbtack on Liberace’s piano bench,” Kimmel said.
On Friday, HBO host Bill Maher went even lower, not only joking about Graham being gay, but poking at the late John McCain as well.
Maher joked that Graham needed the “stabilizing influence of his dead boyfriend.”
Finally, CNN hosts Chris Cuomo and Don Lemon yukked it up Friday, mocking Lindsey Graham for having “the vapors.”
“First he’s got the vapors!” Don Lemon said in a mock Southern accent, referring to a joke where women who were said to have the “vapors” if they were acting hysterical or irrational.

Thomas Lifson: Frenzied Left stooping to homophobia to bash Kavanaugh supporter Lindsey Graham  "Remember when making fun of people because you thought they might be secretly homosexual was considered a bad thing by leftists?  That was back when a “right of privacy” was imputed to the Constitution (right there in the penumbra, a previously unknown codicil invented to justify abortion.) It suggests that there is something wrong about homosexuality, which is about as politically incorrect as you can get. Just ask the Human Rights Campaign (HRC.org), one of the richest and most influential lobbying organizations. (Except that the HRC is silent so far on what follows.)

"No fewer than 3 prominent Trump-hating celebrities have turned to mockery of Senator Lindsey Graham as a potential homosexual, something that he has never, to my knowledge, commented upon. He is an aging bachelor, and that’s all they know. But that’s enough if the issue if torpedoing the nomination of Judge Kavanaugh.*

"If vulgar and distasteful graphic language disturbs you, read no further, for the slurs directed at Senator Graham are hideous and disturbing." . . .

. . . "Nobody walked off the set in outrage, and no booing from the audience. Roseanne Barr lost her hit TV show over less. If the hypocrites at the HRC were to make an issue of this, Maher might be in danger. But the HRC is more dedicated to advancing leftist causes than to fighting homophobia, it is quite clear to me." . . .
