Santorum: One Criminal Father is Better Than Two Mommies
Wow, Rick. You don’t seriously believe that having a convicted criminal for a father is better for children than having two parents of the same sex, do you?
MANCHESTER, N.H. — For the second time in as many days, Rick Santorum on Friday drew attention away from his efforts to craft a blue-collar economic message by wading into the issue of gay marriage. He suggested it was so important for children to have a father and mother that an imprisoned father was preferable to a same-sex parent.
Citing the work of one anti-poverty expert, Santorum said, “he found that even fathers in jail who had abandoned their kids, were still better than no father at all to have in their childrens’ lives.”
Yes, he actually does believe this. OK, we have our right wing jaw-dropper of the day.
