Santorum allegedly made the controversial comments when discussing welfare in an interview Wednesday night with Fox News' Bill O'Reilly, but he maintained that people misheard the word "black" when he stumbled on a word.
“I looked at that, and I didn't say that. If you look at it, what I started to say is a word and then sort of changed and it sort of - blah - came out. And people said I said ‘black.’ I didn't," Santorum said while smiling away.
“And I can tell you, I don't use - I don't - first off, I don't use the term ‘black’ very often. I use the term ‘African-American’ more than I use ‘black' ... I think sometimes you want to give someone the benefit of the doubt if it's a little bit of a blurred word."
We have laws in states, like the one at the Supreme Court right now, that has sodomy laws and they were there for a purpose. Because, again, I would argue, they undermine the basic tenets of our society and the family. And if the Supreme Court says that you have the right to consensual sex within your home, then you have the right to bigamy, you have the right to polygamy, you have the right to incest, you have the right to adultery. You have the right to anything. Does that undermine the fabric of our society? I would argue yes, it does. It all comes from, I would argue, this right to privacy that doesn't exist in my opinion in the United States Constitution, this right that was created, it was created in Griswold -- Griswold was the contraceptive case -- and abortion. And now we're just extending it out. And the further you extend it out, the more you -- this freedom actually intervenes and affects the family. You say, well, it's my individual freedom. Yes, but it destroys the basic unit of our society because it condones behavior that's antithetical to strong healthy families. Whether it's polygamy, whether it's adultery, where it's sodomy, all of those things, are antithetical to a healthy, stable, traditional family.
Every society in the history of man has upheld the institution of marriage as a bond between a man and a woman. Why? Because society is based on one thing: that society is based on the future of the society. And that's what? Children. Monogamous relationships. In every society, the definition of marriage has not ever to my knowledge included homosexuality. That's not to pick on homosexuality. It's not, you know, man on child, man on dog, or whatever the case may be. It is one thing. And when you destroy that you have a dramatic impact on the quality--
blah people, lol.
Lemme guess. He has "blah friends," right?

IIRC, that comes from one statistic which included miscarriages as abortions.
Because miscarriages may be self induced or some bullshit.

then you have the right to bigamy, you have the right to polygamy, you have the right to incest, you have the right to adultery.
^Right on.Quotethen you have the right to bigamy, you have the right to polygamy, you have the right to incest, you have the right to adultery.
I see nothing wrong with any of this being legal. Incest is gross to me, but as long as they're both adults, who are they hurting? Adultery belongs between the person cheating and their partner, the government doesn't need to be in it.

I can only think of one danger when it comes to contraception: If you use it, you may enjoy yourself, and want more sex outside of marriage without having babies. And we can't have that.

Sounds like a challenge!
It's a fairly traditional conservative argument- society is permanently on a knife's edge and any attempt to make major reform can only cause it's collapse.
Fundamental changes in society are sometimes labelled impractical or contrary to human nature, as if nuclear war were practical or as if there's only one human nature. But fundamental changes can clearly be made, we're surrounded by them. In the last two centuries abject slavery which was with us for thousands of years has almost entirely been eliminated in a stirring worldwide revolution. Women, systematically mistreated for millennia are gradually gaining the political and economic power traditionally denied them and some wars of aggression have recently been stopped or curtailed because of a revulsion felt by the people in the aggressor nations. The old appeals to racial sexual religious chauvinism and to rabid nationalist fervor are beginning not to work. A new consciousness is developing which sees the earth as a single organism and recognizes that an organism at war with itself is doomed.
And you, Fred, have reminded me of an all too appropriate quote from Carl Sagan:QuoteFundamental changes in society are sometimes labelled impractical or contrary to human nature, as if nuclear war were practical or as if there's only one human nature.

Rick Santorum took a swipe at the gay community on Tuesday, proving that the multiple glitter-bomb attacks he received this week have done nothing to change his hard-line stance against gay rights.
According to the Palm Beach Post, he told a woman who asked why her gay son doesn't have the same rights as a heterosexual, that certain rights are reserved for people who perform activities that are "healthy for society."
"There are certain things that government does that gives people privileges in order to promote activity that are healthy for society and are best for society," Santorum said. "And those things we promote would give people advantages or benefits, government benefits because we think that is healthy activity. Mothers and fathers coming together, forming healthy marriages, having children and raising those children. Every American child has the right, and the government should support the right to have and know their mother and father and be raised by their mother and father."
Indeed.

But I do have concerns about women in frontline combat. I think that can be a very compromising situation where — where people naturally may do things that may not be in the interests of the mission because of other types of emotions that are involved. And I think that’s probably — you know, it already happens, of course, with the camaraderie of men in combat. But it’s — but it’s — I think it would be even more unique if women were in combat. And I think that’s probably not in the best interests of men, women or the mission.
What's funny is that I just heard a discussion on the EVIL AND SOCIALIST NPR which had a military expert on, asking about why the military now wants to have women allowed to work with front-line units in non-primary combatant roles.QuoteBut I do have concerns about women in frontline combat.

“It has been my experience that when dealing with females, you need to treat them as though they have a mental disorder… especially those that are constantly seeking equality in the workplace, the military, and in the home. Women need to know their place and need to know when it is okay for them to speak. They were put on this earth for two reasons, and two reasons alone: taking care of their husband, and giving birth to his children… that is all. Any woman who tells you otherwise is obviously touting the liberal agenda of equality, and they need to be told the truth of their purpose. It is a disorder that can be fixed, but not until they go through several years of therapy to understand that they need to be subservient.”

Former senator Rick Santorum (R-Pa.) on Sunday defended a statement he made last October in which he said that he “almost threw up” when he read John F. Kennedy’s 1960 Houston address on the role of religion in public life.
The statement by Santorum marks the GOP contender’s latest defense of his long-held views on the separation of church and state, although in his Sunday appearance he doubled down on the colorful language he employed in his October speech at a New Hampshire college.
“I believe in an America where the separation of church and state is absolute, where no Catholic prelate would tell the president (should he be Catholic) how to act, and no Protestant minister would tell his parishioners for whom to vote; where no church or church school is granted any public funds or political preference; and where no man is denied public office merely because his religion differs from the president who might appoint him or the people who might elect him,”
There are 18,000 married gay and lesbian couples in California and at least 131,000 nationwide according to the 2010 census, conducted before New York state legalized same-sex marriage in July.
Rick Santorum says he'll try to unmarry all of them if he's elected president.
Once the U.S. Constitution is amended to prohibit same-gender marriages, "their marriage would be invalid," the former Pennsylvania senator said Dec. 30 in an NBC News interview.
"We can't have 50 different marriage laws in this country," he said. "You have to have one marriage law."
"You have to have one marriage law."
No no no...between one man and one woman.
Ironbite-that's what he's going to do.

Almost...threw up. Well let's see what exactly it is that made him almost throw up his cookies. Not his Girl Scout cookies because they're immoral sex feinds who want to push lesbianism and feminism on our children.Quote“I believe in an America where the separation of church and state is absolute, where no Catholic prelate would tell the president (should he be Catholic) how to act, and no Protestant minister would tell his parishioners for whom to vote; where no church or church school is granted any public funds or political preference; and where no man is denied public office merely because his religion differs from the president who might appoint him or the people who might elect him,”
Huh...so Kennedy talking about how the church shouldn't fuck with the state almost made him throw up.

During his first U.S. Senate campaign in 1994, Santorum made unwed mothers and welfare reform regular features of his stump speech. Recently, Mother Jones reported that the candidate had once argued that single mothers were "breeding more criminals" and advocated that they should be denied welfare benefits if they refused to identify the child's father.
The Huffington Post obtained transcripts of Santorum's comments and speeches from various campaign stops in 1994, which show just how far Santorum was willing to go with his proposals. Produced for the then-Sen. Harris Wofford's campaign, the video and audio transcripts show that the Pennsylvania Republican was willing to deny unwed mothers government services until they revealed private family information.
Under the plan, those unwed mothers would have to reveal the name of their child’s father in exchange for welfare and subsidized medical care. What was once the domain of private labs, family courts, and Maury Povich would become the domain of the government.
"What we say is that in order for Mom to be able to go on welfare if she has a child out of wedlock, you have to tell us who the father is," Santorum said at an event in Carlisle, Pa., on April 1, 1994. "If you don't tell us who the father is, you're not eligible for any welfare benefits, none, not even medical care. You tell us who the father is or you don't receive benefits."
Rick Santorum accused his rivals Monday of having "a truly radical environmental agenda" and putting "critters above people."
“What we have seen under this administration is a truly radical environmental agenda,” Santorum said in response to a question at the Gulf Coast Energy Summit in Biloxi, Mississipi.
He also attacked Newt Gingrich, apparently a fan of wild animals, for supporting the Endangered Species Act.
"There are so many places that we put critters above people," Santorum said. "It’s a radical ideology that says we are here to serve the Earth instead of man having dominion over the Earth to serve him and to be a good steward of that Earth.”

Whether or not a "person" exists to be at fault is what needs to be asked here. It is generally accepted that the baby's brain does not fully develop into a semi-conscious state until the third trimester, when abortion is outlawed anyway (except for birth defects and medical emergencies).
Abortion is not to punish the "baby." Where the hell did you get this idea?

No really. Way back in 1990, when he was running for the Senate. And he had some interesting words and ideas for the newly-created single mother class that the GOP of the time wanted to target.QuoteDuring his first U.S. Senate campaign in 1994, Santorum made unwed mothers and welfare reform regular features of his stump speech. Recently, Mother Jones reported that the candidate had once argued that single mothers were "breeding more criminals" and advocated that they should be denied welfare benefits if they refused to identify the child's father.

"If you don't tell us who the father is, you're not eligible for any welfare benefits, none, not even medical care. You tell us who the father is or you don't receive benefits."
So basically, Santorum wanted to have unwed single mothers reveal who the father was. Of course now if they were raped or were being threatened by the father didn't even seem to enter into this morons mind.

SAN JUAN, March 14 (Reuters) - Republican presidential hopeful Rick Santorum told Puerto Ricans on Wednesday they would have to make English their primary language if they want to pursue U.S. statehood, a statement at odds with the U.S. Constitution.
Santorum traveled to the U.S. territory to campaign ahead of the island's Republican primary election scheduled for Sunday, where he, Mitt Romney and Newt Gingrich are vying for 20 delegates.
Puerto Ricans, who recognize both English and Spanish as their official languages, are scheduled to vote in November on a referendum to decide whether they want to pursue statehood or remain a self-governing U.S. commonwealth.
In an interview with El Vocero newspaper, Santorum said he supported Puerto Ricans' right to self-determination regarding the island's political status.
"We need to work together and determine what type of relationship we want to develop," he told the newspaper.
But Santorum said he did not support a state in which English was not the primary language.
"Like any other state, there has to be compliance with this and any other federal law," Santorum said. "And that is that English has to be the principal language. There are other states with more than one language such as Hawaii but to be a state of the United States, English has to be the principal language."
Republican presidential candidate Rick Santorum has promised to initiate a war on porn if elected.
“America is suffering a pandemic of harm from pornography. It contributes to misogyny and violence against women. It is a contributing factor to prostitution and sex trafficking,” the former Pennsylvania senator wrote in a statement posted on his campaign website.
Santorum has chosen the porn industry as his latest target in his effort to be viewed as the most conservative candidate in the GOP primary, ahead of opponent Mitt Romney. He believes that current obscenity laws should be more stringently enforced.
“Current federal ‘obscenity’ laws prohibit distribution of hardcore (obscene) pornography on the Internet, on cable/satellite TV, on hotel/motel TV, in retail shops and through the mail or by common carrier,” Santorum wrote in the statement, adding that these laws should be “vigorously enforced.”

"I don't care what the liberals say, I don't care what the naysayers say, this nation was founded as a Christian nation...There is only one God and his name is Jesus. I'm tired of people telling me that I can't say those words.. Listen to me, If you don't love America, If you don't like the way we do things I have one thing to say - GET OUT. We don't worship Buddha, we don't worship Mohammad, we don't worship Allah, we worship God, we worship God's son Jesus Christ."
In a revival type speech, Greenwell Springs Baptist Church pastor Rev. Dennis Terry introduced Family Research Council president Tony Perkins and 2012 Republican presidential candidate Rick Santorum in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.
Christians, according to Rev. Terry, are the conscience of the state and even the key to turning the economy around. The pastor offered some pointed words about abortion, gay marriage, and prayer in schools, shouting about 'sexual perversion' and putting God back in Washington, D.C., as Senator Santorum was seen clapping, if not cheering, in the background.
(Reuters) - Republican White House hopeful Rick Santorum said on Monday he did not care about the U.S. unemployment rate, perhaps the nation's most closely watched economic indicator, despite being embroiled in a campaign largely focused on the still-sputtering economy.
"I don't care what the unemployment rate is going to be. It doesn't matter to me. My campaign doesn't hinge on unemployment rates and growth rates," Santorum said during a campaign appearance in Illinois, which on Tuesday holds the next contest in the state-by-state battle for the Republican presidential nomination.
Santorum, a former senator from Pennsylvania known mainly for a strong religious conservatism, is battling Mitt Romney, a former Massachusetts governor and the frontrunner in the race to oppose President Barack Obama in the November election.
White man
You have always been called King, Sir, Master, Lord, and father. Now you put up with snide “white boy” comments. People talk about your ancestry like you have something to be ashamed of. You are the race of excellence. the race of kings and conquerors. Hold your fucking head high, and man the fuck up!

WASHINGTON -- Rick Santorum stepped squarely into the national debate over President Obama's health care law on Monday, traveling to the steps of the U.S. Supreme Court to deliver a message: Mitt Romney can't get rid of Obamacare.
"He may say he wants to repeal Obamacare but he won't have the mandate from the course of this campaign to be able to win the argument, not just here in Congress but across the country," Santorum said. "I'll be making that argument throughout the course of our campaign. If we're successful it will be very clear where the American public is."
"That won't be the case with Governor Romney, because as you see, he's not here, he's not making the argument in this race," Santorum said, speaking to a throng of reporters, onlookers and pro-Obamacare activists who at times tried to shout him down.
Ironbite-this guy is crazy and the sooner we get him into the list of failed candidates the better.

He was clearly referring to "Nig people." Right?
EDIT: In all honesty I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt and trying to think of what else he was trying to say.
Guess who's 3 year old daughter is a lifetime member of the NRA?[facepalm]

Unrelated to Santorum story, but it's pretty stupid, so I wanted to share it. It's scary, but no one died, thankfully.Why the hell to people think guns and kids mix. BB paint or air maybe but real bullets...
A woman my mother works with decided to buy guns for her 5-year-old son and 3-year-old daughter for Christmas. Real guns. I think she bought two rifles. This was just weeks after the woman mentioned her son was grounded for intentionally shooting his sister with his BB gun. Anyway, they went and got the guns from someone the husband knows. They tested the guns out before buying them, so they had bullets in them. The idiot parents put the kids in the back of the car with the loaded rifles. As they were driving down the road, they heard a shot from the backseat. They were afraid to turn around for a moment, but finally looked. Luckily, no one was hurt, but the little girl had pulled the trigger and shot out the back window.

....and it never occurred to them to unload the guns and keep them AWAY from the kids because...? I'm sorry, but those parents should forfeit their right to keep firearms if they're THAT stupid around them. I might be a little more forgiving had they put the safety on them, but relying on the safety is almost as stupid.Well so often they off themselves via stupidity (like parents who gave their 10 year old a gun and he shot his mom over a trivial thing
CLASS: IF YOU TRAVEL WITH A GUN, A) YOU TREAT IT AS LOADED, B) YOU UNLOAD THAT MOTHERFUCKER, AND C) KEEP IT THE HELL AWAY FROM KIDS!
*sighs* Few things on the planet fuck me off like people being stupid with guns!

Speaking as someone who works on a paintball field, there's no way kids that age should have paintball guns either. They can be just as dangerous as a real firearm in the wrong hands, and I'm sure BB guns/airguns aren't far behind either.
Here in New Zealand at least, paintball markers are almost as restricted as guns; you need to be either over 16 and hold a license, or over 18 years old. If you buy one for your kid under the pretence of getting it for yourself, you can face some pretty hefty penalties.
