Santorum Breaks Ties With Law Center
Sen. Rick Santorum on Thursday withdrew his affiliation from the Christian-rights law center that defended a school district's policy mandating the teaching of "intelligent design."
Santorum, the Senate's No. 3 Republican who is facing a tough re-election challenge next year, earlier praised the Dover Area School District for "attempting to teach the controversy of evolution."
But the day after a federal judge ruled the district's policy on intelligent design unconstitutional, Santorum told The Philadelphia Inquirer he was troubled by testimony indicating religion motivated some board members to adopt the policy.

It reminds me of the guy in the movie Casablanca that is "Shocked, shocked" when informed gambling is happening at his club.
Is Rick Santorum so stupid or naive that he expects us to believe he believed religion had nothing to do with the school board enacting Intelligent Design?
 
Santorum said in a 2002 Washington Times op-ed article that intelligent design "is a legitimate scientific theory that should be taught in science classes."

What an about face. I guess elections are around the corner and he realizes that is trailing Casey in the polls and he can't rely on the Christian far right to carry him through the next election.

I sincerely hope he loses.

Have you ever seen Casablanca?

Yes, of course I have seen it. Here is the quote:

Captain Louis Renault
"I'm shocked, shocked to find there is gambling going on here."

I did make an error. It was the police captain not the club owner(whose name I forget, but might have been Rick) who says the line.

I'm just happy he dropped his BS idea of prohibiting the National Weather Service from providing free information to the people.
I don't think that's completely dead, is it?
 
Has anyone actually listened to this man speak? He sounds like he's from some kind of 17th century Puritan colony...

Thank God we're going to oust him in '06. Bob Casey FTW. 😀

He's got that same "broomstick up his ass" look I see in Scott McClellan every time he opens his mouth.

And what country is that? Certainly not the U.S. 😛

From your posts, I've often thought you could be from another planet. :laugh:

Yes, all women should be kept in the kitchen 24/7 and all gays should be round up and executed. That clearly constitutes heroism.

Wow, closer families and better values? Sounds good to me.


Go Away. Please.. You are truly sick.. very sick..

Go tell your Pastor or Minister or whatever that you think all gays should be killed and that you believe women should only be allowed barefoot and pregnant ...

 
I guess the polls show that voters are sick of the religious wingnuts trying to screw up their schools and that hypocritical bastard santorum is jumping ship off the fundie ship

Ahahahahaha! You guys are crazy, literal, and downright funny to listen to. There's a difference between wanting to kill gays and wanting to stop glamourizing and hearing about gays and gay rights (especially when the law is the same for both straights and gays just like the laws are the same for men and women) and there's a difference between wanting women to stay at home and get beaten and to stop hearing about facist women's rights movements. These things are jamming wedges between people and dividing america into more groups. I hate it so much, but we keep going in that direction so I'm not going to be Mr. Nice Guy anymore!

Terrible thing .. those womens rights.. they should be making babies and making bombs and bullets in the factories when we go to war.. and if she cheats on ya .. just kill her and the good man in the court system will let you go free because he wants to keep woman in chains too



You better love loving you better behave
You better love loving you better behave
Woman in Chains
Woman in Chains

Calls her man the Great White Hope
Syas she's fine, she'll always cope
Woman in Chains
Woman in Chains

Well I fell lying and waiting is a poor man's deal
And I feel hopelessly weighed down by your eyes of steel
It's a world gone crazy
Keeps Woman in Chains

Trades her soul as skin and bone
Sells the only thing she owns
Woman in Chains
Woman in Chains

Men of Stone Men of Stone

Well I feel deep in your heart there are wounds Time can't heal
And I feel somebody somewhere is trying to breathe
Well you know what I mean
It's a world gone crazy
Keeps Woman in Chains

It's under my skin but out of my hands
I'll tear it apart but I won't understand
I will not accept the Greatness of Man

It's a world gone crazy
Keeps Woman in Chains

So Free Her So Free Her

LOL, you're so full of Santorum, you can't even smell your frightened little dirtball self anymore, can you?

 
Sen. Santorum is a member of the elitist group of conservatives that think they are above the soiled masses. He and his ilk like to portray themselves as pure of mind and spirit, and their followers like to think they are morally superior also.

Politics is a dirty business, and there are back room deals, broken promises and backstabbing done on all sides. I would like to think there are a few statesmen around, but I am always wary of their deceptive tactics.
 
Dahunan you don't get it! I'm saying the LAWS are the same for Men, Women, Gays, Minorities, EVERYTHING! Civil rights' movements are over and anything more is just greed and is only placing a wedge between everyone and not letting things work out in their own way.
 
When will Men quit bating their wives then.. huh? Yes, here come the nuts that are going to tell us that women are also domestive abusers..

When will Men quit raping women economically and sexually..

When will Men quit running out on their families so can put their dick in some different hootchie and so they don't have to be responsibile for the children they helped produced

The ratio is about 10:1

Never! And how do civil rights' groups' help with that? And that 10:1 ratio is bogus unless you can show me some evidence since you want to get into numbers.

It was the French Police Captain, played by Claude Rains, who said the line just before closing the club and just before a dealer walked up to him and handed him his winnings.

But other than that you are correct in your analysis that Sen. Santorium is a hypocrite.
