he kind of brought it on himself by being so decidedly anti-gay that it pissed lots of people off moondog Send a noteboard - 04/01/2012 04:36:39 PM
and not just anyone, but someone like dan savage with a widely publicized, widely read, wildly popular, sex advice column. the fact that dan savage is an unapologetic democrat shill did not hurt things either. it didn't really hurt santorum's political career, it's only now that he's running for president that anyone outside "savage love"'s readership (or the daily show/colbert report crowd) have even heard the term before.

for the record, my vote for renaming santorum was "farting in someone's face who is giving you a rim job" but of course my vote ended up not counting since "savage love" is run by a dictatorship...

So is it OK if just insult the gays who are politically active and push their agenda? random thoughts - 06/01/2012 06:16:30 PM 967 Views
If you call them out by name for hypocrisy, then sure. Bored - 10/01/2012 05:22:34 PM 989 Views
yes but once you have thrown out all civil decency why start getting nuanced? Ray - 11/01/2012 09:09:13 PM 906 Views

Why should a person tolerate intolerance? (Serious question.) *NM* Great Lord of Chaos - 05/01/2012 08:46:05 PM 642 Views
The question boils down to why should someone tolerate what they think is wrong. Narg - 05/01/2012 10:53:40 PM 898 Views
and when santorum tells you that your lifestyle is worse than pedophilia and bestiality? moondog - 06/01/2012 03:34:52 AM 852 Views
To be fair... Narg - 06/01/2012 05:32:31 AM 995 Views
You are correct Roland00 - 06/01/2012 01:21:18 PM 1049 Views

Re: Those are really not equivalent. Narg - 06/01/2012 10:27:11 PM 943 Views
I don't like your definition of tolerance and you're not consistent with it anyway. Vivien - 07/01/2012 01:49:05 AM 979 Views
In case you were curious, I really disagree with your understanding of tolerance. *NM* Vivien - 09/01/2012 08:24:45 PM 597 Views

Dear Iowa, Wulf`gar - 04/01/2012 08:04:09 PM 931 Views
So at this point, most of the candidates had a moment at the top. Kind of awesome. Vivien - 05/01/2012 11:22:50 PM 920 Views
that is why Perry is staying in the race random thoughts - 06/01/2012 06:20:54 PM 890 Views

It would be the joke of the year if Huntsman got a turn. Legolas - 06/01/2012 10:59:36 PM 843 Views
Is he a bigger long shot than Santorum, though? Gingrich? Bachman? CAIN!? Vivien - 07/01/2012 01:34:47 AM 944 Views
Yes, for the reason you state. Joel - 07/01/2012 03:04:39 PM 903 Views

It's not a foregone conclusion yet. ranagrande - 07/01/2012 04:03:51 PM 941 Views
It kinda is; Paul cannot even win a majority of Republicans, let alone the country. Joel - 07/01/2012 09:09:07 PM 916 Views
Ironically, Paul has a better chance of winning the general election than the republican primary. ranagrande - 07/01/2012 10:14:07 PM 1003 Views
What's the likelihood of Paul running as an independent/3rd party if he doesn't get the GOP nod? *NM* Stephen - 07/01/2012 10:21:23 PM 343 Views
Not very high, I think. He didn't try it last time either, and it would hand Obama the election. *NM* Legolas - 08/01/2012 01:29:01 AM 462 Views
He will threaten to do it, but not actually do it Roland00 - 08/01/2012 04:14:55 AM 1005 Views
