Santorum:"Gays are on a jihad against me"

Rick Santorum really does not like the political activism that gay people have launched against him, ever since his 2003 remarks comparing the legalization of gay sex and gay marriage to pedophilia, bestiality and incest.

"So the gay community said, 'He's comparing gay sex to incest and polygamy, how dare he do this,' and they have gone out on a, I would argue, jihad against Rick Santorum since then," Santorum said at a campaign event in Spartanburg, S.C., on Friday, The Hill reports.

There is a certain irony here, in that radical Islamists -- like Santorum himself -- would want to see homosexuality outlawed. And it is Santorum's prior remarks on that subject that have led to the situation that he is complaining about.

For such a seemingly intelligent, passionate, and friendly guy, he really has a perverse world view.  He's like the nice little grandpa who bags groceries at a grocery store, and yet keeps his daughters as sex slaves and in cages in the basement.

LOL...YES

I think that might be going a bit far. I'd say he's like that grandpa who throws casual racial slurs into conversations and genuinely doesn't understand how anybody could possibly be offended.

[RI]

It's pretty undeniable that gay activists/Dan Savage went after Santorum in a way that is unheard of in this day.

[Keystone Phil]

Santorum wants homosexuality outlawed? No. Wrong.

[Torie]

Rick is just such a sensitive type with his own unique way with words. I am sure he will find a niche for himself - somewhere.

[○∙◄☻¥tπ[╪AV┼cVê└]

The homosexuals made Michelle Bachmann and Rick Perry run so that Santorum would be irrelevant.

Well, Marcus Bachmann is her closet closest confidant.

[tpfkaw]

Gay jihad?  Sounds pretty gay.

Perfect, indeed.

[DrScholl]

Does he realize how mental he sounds talking like this? He seriously needs to sit down and retire, he's acting like he doesn't have any sense.

[Fmr. Pres. Duke]

Why can't he accept they were born this way before he falls off the edge of glory?

[Jack1475]

The focus of the republican party should be fiscal issues not social issues.

[Oswald Acted Alone, You Kook]

Given what Dan Savage did to him this is slightly understandable.

[Likely Voter]

Santorum wants homosexuality outlawed? No. Wrong.

Yes, Right (or he at least wants the states to be allowed to have anti-sodomy laws again)

Of course Santorum technically doesn't want homosexuality outlawed. That would be like outlawing diabetes or color blindness.
He just wants to ban insulin and contact lenses.

[Politico]

Earth to Santorum: YOU ARE GAY

[Swedish Rainbow Capitalist Cheese]

Earth to Santorum: YOU ARE GAY

Please do not insult the gays by comparing them to Santorum.

Anyway where can I sign up for this Jihad against Santorum? While we're at it is there a jihad against David Vitter as well?

And Lyndon, I'm pretty sure contact lenses do nothing to improve color blindness, just saying

No where in that statement does he say that he wants homosexuality outlawed.

[Franzl]

LOL, does he really have to state it that clearly? It's obvious he's everything but tolerant.

[courts]

Phil if the man thinks that government can (and should) ban what 'those people' do privately, it's not very hard to fill in the blanks.

Except he didn't say that they should ban what is done privately.

Moderate Hero Quota hit for today! Congrats, Franzl!
