I'm really conflicted about the whole Santorum thing. Vivien Send a noteboard - 06/01/2012 07:42:02 PM
I think Rick Santorum's views are horrible and wrong and actively harmful to many people. I can't even figure out what to say, maybe Dan Savage's santorum thing is an example of bullying. But perhaps it's more fighting back. I really can't decide.

Mostly I think that the homophobia thing will take care of itself, it's becoming an older generation thing more and more. Younger people are pretty accepting and in recent years more and more people are accepting- definitely positive trends. I think that women's health is in a much more precarious position.

A bunch of morons get together and try to make someone's name a crude sexual term because they don't like his political view. The only thing that is really funny about is it the same pathetic fools always whining about bullying. Like most things the victim class complains about they only think such protection should apply to people they like and is just funny when it is directed toward people they don't like. Not at all surprising these are they same half wits who gave "hate" crime laws they are only applied to white men.

And yes I know you said you didn't want to make it political but sorry that isn't like saying you don't want to be racist you just don't like people with dark skins.

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 975 Views
If you call them out by name for hypocrisy, then sure. Bored - 10/01/2012 05:22:34 PM 998 Views
yes but once you have thrown out all civil decency why start getting nuanced? Ray - 11/01/2012 09:09:13 PM 919 Views
That's too harsh. Vivien - 06/01/2012 07:29:05 PM 908 Views

Santorum is a man who believes you must compare homosexual love to bestiality and pedophilia Roland00 - 05/01/2012 04:42:26 AM 944 Views

Why should a person tolerate intolerance? (Serious question.) *NM* Great Lord of Chaos - 05/01/2012 08:46:05 PM 645 Views
The question boils down to why should someone tolerate what they think is wrong. Narg - 05/01/2012 10:53:40 PM 904 Views
and when santorum tells you that your lifestyle is worse than pedophilia and bestiality? moondog - 06/01/2012 03:34:52 AM 860 Views
To be fair... Narg - 06/01/2012 05:32:31 AM 1004 Views
You are correct Roland00 - 06/01/2012 01:21:18 PM 1057 Views
Then it seems like it's a problem of definitions more than anything else. Vivien - 06/01/2012 09:48:49 PM 964 Views

Those are really not equivalent. Vivien - 06/01/2012 04:18:37 PM 822 Views
Re: Those are really not equivalent. Narg - 06/01/2012 10:27:11 PM 952 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 985 Views
In case you were curious, I really disagree with your understanding of tolerance. *NM* Vivien - 09/01/2012 08:24:45 PM 602 Views
But being the tolerant person that you are... Narg - 09/01/2012 09:01:10 PM 874 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 931 Views
that is why Perry is staying in the race random thoughts - 06/01/2012 06:20:54 PM 899 Views
He should stay, they should all stay. Trump should get back into it and Palin should jump in too. Vivien - 06/01/2012 07:00:52 PM 842 Views
It would be the joke of the year if Huntsman got a turn. Legolas - 06/01/2012 10:59:36 PM 851 Views
Is he a bigger long shot than Santorum, though? Gingrich? Bachman? CAIN!? Vivien - 07/01/2012 01:34:47 AM 950 Views
Yes, for the reason you state. Joel - 07/01/2012 03:04:39 PM 909 Views

More like everyone has had a moment running second to Romney. Joel - 07/01/2012 01:59:25 PM 841 Views
It's not a foregone conclusion yet. ranagrande - 07/01/2012 04:03:51 PM 951 Views
It kinda is; Paul cannot even win a majority of Republicans, let alone the country. Joel - 07/01/2012 09:09:07 PM 925 Views
Ironically, Paul has a better chance of winning the general election than the republican primary. ranagrande - 07/01/2012 10:14:07 PM 1015 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 347 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 466 Views
He will threaten to do it, but not actually do it Roland00 - 08/01/2012 04:14:55 AM 1016 Views
