Santorum Has Gay Friends

Santorum recently told Don Lemon that he's not a homophobe and he loves his gay friends:



He now joins Joe the Plumber, Sarah Palin, Maggie Gallagher, and all the others with mysterious and unnamed "gay friends."  Of course, those "differences of opinion" that he claims his "gay friends" "respect" including comparing our loving relationships to sex with children and sex with dogs.  Here are some other "differences of opinion" that Santorum's "gay friends" "respect:"

"Whether it's polygamy, whether it's adultery, whether it's sodomy, all of those things, are antithetical to a healthy, stable, traditional family."
"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."


"I have no problem with homosexuality. I have a problem with homosexual acts. As I would with acts of other, what I would consider to be, acts outside of traditional heterosexual relationships. And that includes a variety of different acts, not just homosexual. I have nothing, absolutely nothing against anyone who’s homosexual. If that’s their orientation, then I accept that. And I have no problem with someone who has other orientations. The question is, do you act upon those orientations? So it’s not the person, it’s the person’s actions. And you have to separate the person from their actions.”  (Apparently his "gay friends" are celebate).

In this case, what we’re talking about, basically, is priests who were having sexual relations with post-​pubescent men. We’re not talking about priests with 3-​year-​olds, or 5-​year-​olds. We’re talking about a basic homosexual relationship.” (Blaming the Catholic church's scandal on gays and calling sex with underage teenagers "a basic homosexual relationship.")
