And for a change of pace when quoting comments, here we have a sane person commenting on Mr. Tanner’s article and actually giving useful advice:

The GOP wouldn’t have lost focus, if:

a) there weren’t a major contender for the GOP nomination—Santorum—who has emphasized sexual matters so often in the past—as recently as last October. And who refuses to drop the subject. And whose supporters also refuse to drop the subject. (And sure enough, Santorum was never a favorite of the Tea Party.)

b) there weren’t a certain popular talk-show host who gave his fans their marching orders: Sexually active unmarried women who get health care via health insurance—paid by the rest of us—are sl*ts and prostitutes.

I have pleaded with some of these folks to drop the subject, defuse the issue, and get back to talking about Obama’s record. But evidently there is still a culture out there that believes that women should remain virgins until they get married—even though women are marrying at later ages these days. (Ms. Fluke herself is 30 years old.) I’ve even seen folks on blogs lamenting the fact that American women got the right to vote.

This is the kind of stuff that guys may talk about amongst themselves in locker rooms or in bars over a few drinks: “My wife just doesn’t understand me….” “Women are impossible….” Or the kind of stuff that certain preachers keep telling their congregations. It does NOT belong in a Presidential campaign, and social conservatives should stop injecting it into this campaign immediately.
