A Proper Obituary For Lindsey Graham

They say you should never speak ill of the dead but I think you should always speak the truth of the dead. And the truth is Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC, writhing hotbed unbridled lust) was a terrible human being. If you want to be praised in death, you should live a praiseworthy life. Lindsey did not. He died following a “brief and sudden illness” which I will assume was alcohol poisoning. The last time I saw a video of Graham, he was staggering on a public street with a red solo cup being guided by a security detail and poured into the back of limo. Earlier this year TMZ had some sad pictures of Lindsey staggering alone around Disneyworld carrying some sort of toy wand. He had no friends to go with him. Lindsey Graham was a singular war hawk whose entire Senate career can be summed up with screen grab: Credit: Screenshot And the great Dave Zirin sums him up thusly:read more
