Santorum's Excellent Question

Rick Santorum is working the daylights out of Iowa, no matter that the MSM is doing its damndest to ignore him.

Stacy McCain didn't ignore him, and caught a very good question from Santorum:

"There are people in this race who say that if the state of New York or if the state of New Hampshire wants to pass gay marriage, then that's fine with them," Santorum told his Iowa audience. "It's not fine with me." He likened it to the antebellum debate over slavery -- "whether states have the right to do wrong"

The REAL question in NY (and a couple of other reliable wonzo States) is "whether States have the ability to pervert Nature", but that's another debate.

Santorum will first have to defeat Dan Savage before taking on ORomney. And it wouldn't hurt if he could find some donors...

Jim, you can be an animal if you like. I'm not going to that party.

GOR said...

So the justification for homosexual behavior is because some animals do it, Jim...?

Yeah, and some animals eat their young or their 'spouses' - so should we follow along...? Have you been reading Jonathan Swift...?

Clue: Swift's "Modest Proposal" was satire.

No, D29 was suggesting that homosexuality is a perversion of nature, and I was simply pointing out that it is quite common in nature.

Now, if he wanted to say it was a perversion of God's Law, I'd have no argument, since faith is unimpeachable. I'm just not sure why God would make gay animals.

Mmmm. Irish stew.

HAHAHA. Which side of the debate would a complete goofball like Santorum be on?

common in nature

So are hockey sticks. But that doesn't mean they're a measure of man, Jim.

Nice try, though.

We DO know how Sen. Byrd felt about the Civil War--as we knew about most Southern Democrat Congressional delegation until about.....oh....1990.

But they're Democrats, so they can't be ridiculed, right?

J. Strupp said...

Sure they can. Byrd especially.
