Takei takes on Lindsey Graham - best ever tweet!

Lindsey Graham SC, you said black folks can go anywhere in SC as long as they're conservative and not liberal. Shameful.

While we're on this topic, you should know gay people can go anywhere publicly in my state of CA, as long as they're out and proud, not closeted and afraid.

I think Mark Foley being outed in 2006 before the midterm elections had a big impact - resulting in Speaker Pelosi. Let's hope the same happens to Lindsey Graham who is a truly despicable person.

So far there is nothing like that with Graham. So far we just heard about male escorts but all appear to be adults.

At worst whatever came out would end his political career in SC becsuse it's a conservative state.

But he could still get jobs on cable news or lobbying.
