Heard it on NPR
Interview with Santorum this AM on the morning news show -- he specifically mentioned the Griswold v. Conn. case as an example of liberalism gone too far. This was the case that said laws banning contraceptives were unconstitutional.

Remember this one, it will come back to bite him in '06, and he may not make it to '08.

6. I am against abortion with one exception...
If I were present when your mother was pregnant with you, not only would I have been in favor of it, I would have performed the abortion myself

SNL, 1975

2. Dumbass
What do these freaks want? Just because some hate filled book has a story how a Jew was killing just because he pulling out and shot his wad on the ground? Stupid.

Giving airtime to Fascists, Wingnuts and Fundies who would have been laughed out of town a few short years ago.

4. Don't count on it
The voting machines -- what kind does Pennsylvania have (or will have?)? -- can make all the difference.

5. I think he has a political death wish
Either that or he's genuinely stupid. He's coming out with these statements once a week now. The folks at santorumexposed.com really have their hands full.

Don't you think that at least ONE political advisor would whisper in his ear. "Psst! Rick, that's not a mainstream opinion! Save it for the church group on Sunday!"

10. He's been hacking at Griswold for a long time
Put up a rant about it many moons ago:

http://www.plaidder.com/crit.htm

It was his attack on Griswold that led him to utter this immortal statement:

"And if the Supreme Court says that you have the right to consensual sex within your home, then you have the right to bigamy, you have the right to polygamy, you have the right to incest, you have the right to adultery. You have the right to anything. Does that undermine the fabric of our society? I would argue yes, it does."

It's not just contraception, kids, Santorum thinks it is too liberal to argue that you have the right to have sex in the privacy of your own home.

:scared:
