Santorum spews hate at gays, again
The bigot known as Rick Santorum is after us, yet again. It is well-documented that Santorum hates gay people, and he never passes up an opportunity to bash us. Last year, he compared our relationships to incest and bestiality. Today, while holding a forum with college students in New Hampshire, Santorum let his hate and illogical position on marriage equality run freely. Watch:
As hard as it is to believe, this man is currently under serious consideration to become the leader of our nation. Santorum’s mean-spirited attacks on our community is stunning. It’s stunning that such blatant discrimination does not immediately disqualify him from consideration for president.
Though Santorum finished a close second in the Iowa caucuses on Tuesday, he has no realistic chance of becoming president. But things (and people) like this do have a silver lining for us. The vast majority of Americans do believe in basic fairness; and Rick Santorum’s views are extreme to most Americans. If he and the Republican Party continue to be viewed as so close-minded, that ultimately helps progressives who look sane by comparison.
