I'm sorry. Isn't he a senator?
It really makes you wonder what the fuck is going on, doesn't it.
Because such ignorant, bigoted fucks are accurate representations of like 45% of the population.
It's true that we have problems with corruption/corporate influence on politics in America, but it's also true that a significant amount of the electorate is just dumb as shit. You could solve all the corruption over night and America would still have a bunch of problems until the people start to change.

Rick Santorum's greatest achievement is not his sheer idiocy but actually making people give a fuck about it after years of irrelevancy. It's as if he's unburdening all the pent up stupidity he's kept inside during that time.

He's actually not.
That's what makes him scary.

Sick kid with poor access to medication: That's just the free market, can't do anything about that.
But some blokes marry some other blokes and suddenly he's fucking Captain Intervention.
I usually try to see and understand the point of view of those I don't agree with, but this guy is simply a grade-A cunt.

I have said this a thousand times, but I think government needs to not recognize any type of marriage. You can get the exact same benefits without recognizing it.
It looks like most Christians (like myself) would want it that way, too. Do you really want government dictating who you can marry? Really?

Less government for my ideals, more government for ideals I don't believe in.

He was a Senator. I was saying he's never had any chance of being president.

"Opposing gay marriage is like being mad at someone else for eating a donut while you're on a diet."
Don't remember where I heard it, but the comparison stuck with me.

As his chances for the candidacy get slimmer and slimmer, the risk/reward ratio gets higher. "I'm probably not going to win, so I may as well go all in and see what happens." In a couple weeks he'll probably be detailing a plan to tie all gay people to a rocket ship and send it to the moon.
The fucking hypocrisy is tasty, isn't it.

Well, I guess it's easier for him to market himself based on his bad qualities than his good ones
He's not. The only person dumb enough to say that would be someone who's dumb enough to believe it.
Without the government to recognize marriage, then it would be left to who exactly to recognize marriages?
It's much more than the benefits, by the way.

"We can't have 50 different marriage laws in this country," he said. "You have to have one marriage law."
As usual, "states rights" are thrown out the window any time states do something they disagree with.

I think this is actually pretty tame compared to what he's said in the past (comparing it to incest, child abuse, and bestiality).
And it's not exactly new - he said the same thing back in January.
He's also opposed civil unions.
He pretty much represents the obsolete social conservative wing of the Republican party. No staunch social conservative will ever win the office of President in this country, fortunately.

So people voting for him for the senate twice doesn't count or something?
People like him shouldn't even be mayor of a 400 inhabitants village. Tha'ts what I'm saying.

Hypocrisy on federalism is par for the course for both parties, unfortunately.

I will move if this happens. Sometimes I think this country is a hive of scum and villainy.
Nobody has to recognize them, unless they choose to do so. I'm not exactly sure why this seems so untenable.

Ironically, marriage law was one of the things that the founders actually wanted to be regulated at a state level not a federal level.
He already tried that in Michigan/Arizona. He was begging the Dems to vote for him.

He never had any LGBT votes to begin with. None, well except for hardcore anti-homosexual republicans.
What?
There are several hundred laws in place regarding civil unions. It would be much easier to legalize gay marriage than to end marriage altogether. How stubborn would you have to be destroy a concept simply to prevent a smaller group from also taking part in it?
Because marriage is more than a religious binding now. It's symbolic. People want to be married, not in a civil union.
I was just thinking, the way the American right argues that a secular state is taking an anti-religion stance by not taking a pro-religion stance, when are they (read: is he) going to start arguing that their opponents are against free speech by arguing for gay marriage? The step isn't very far to "by the state allowing homosexual marriages, they are also prohibiting the right of those who oppose it".
Because it's something government probably shouldn't be meddling in to begin with. Yes, this country was "built" on that principle, as much as it was slavery. Doesn't mean we should be doing it in 2012.

At first, I cannot understand why someone this stupid is given so much attention.
On a second though, I guess that it's yet another example of a very widespread celebrity culture.

Marriage belongs to everybody. If the government has to enforce it then so be it.
Marriage does belong to everybody. That's more reason for government to be out of it.
