Three posts from gay blogger and activist Michael Rogers on his Twitter feed this past weekend.

Lindsey Graham is a US Senator from South Carolina whose records shows he is opposed to equal rights for gay men and lesbians. Most recently he was opposed to the repeal of military’s ban on gay soldiers. “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” was effectively overturned by the US Senate despite Graham and most Republicans’ complaints.

Graham has long been the subject of rumor and speculation. In April, a “Tea Party” activist from Graham’s home state called him gay at a public rally.

Rogers previously outed a number of closeted Capitol Hill politicians for being anti-gay hypocrites. He spoke at length with Metro Weekly this past July.
