Santorum Has a Google -- and an Abortion -- Problem

Presidential hopeful Rick Santorum, an absolutely loathesome character, has, as Rachel Maddow points out, a small 'Google problem'.

And as JJ says, we sane people have an obligation to help keep that Santorum problem link at the top of the search results.

DJ! wants to help.

Did you know that Rick's wife had an abortion? Ah, but theirs was Different.
“The doctors said they were talking about a matter of hours or a day or two before risking sepsis and both of them might die,” Santorum said. “Obviously, if it was a choice of whether both Karen and the child are going to die or just the child is going to die, I mean it’s a pretty easy call.”

Yes, Rick. People's criteria may differ, but abortion often is a pretty easy call. One that you and your fellow and sister fetus fetishists want to co-opt in the name of Gord.

But then, who is surprised? All Gord's chillen get knocked up, often inconveeeeniently. When fetus fetishists find themselves with an unwanted, unplanned pregnancy though, their abortions are Different and Moral, unlike all those other irresponsible sluts in the waiting room.

BONUS: In what definitely could be and maybe will become a regular feature: Your Daily Tea Bagger Batshittery, today from, of course, Rick Santorum, on climate change.
It’s just an excuse for more government control of your life, and I’ve never been for any scheme or even accepted the junk science behind the whole narrative.

Please Please Please - Rick "the Dick" Santorum for GOP Presidential nominee in 2012!

Any electoral success he's had in the past has been in spite of his uber-wingnuttery. He won't even come close to carrying his (sort of ) home state of Pennsylvania. He's way too outside for anyone with a clue. Remember the "bringing home the dead newborn to hang out with the siblings" incident? Plus, his abortion "secret" means a massive FAIL with the fetus fetishist purity crowd.

No, really? That's beyond twisted.

Yeesh. k'in's link.

Quote: 'In his Senate office, on a shelf next to an autographed baseball, Sen. Rick Santorum keeps a framed photo of his son Gabriel Michael, the fourth of his seven children. Named for two archangels, Gabriel Michael was born prematurely, at 20 weeks, on Oct. 11, 1996, and lived two hours outside the womb.

Upon their son's death, Rick and Karen Santorum opted not to bring his body to a funeral home. Instead, they bundled him in a blanket and drove him to Karen's parents' home in Pittsburgh. There, they spent several hours kissing and cuddling Gabriel with his three siblings, ages 6, 4 and 1 1/2. They took photos, sang lullabies in his ear and held a private Mass.'

I'd quote more but it gets worse.
