Earlier today Gingrich folks were claiming that it disqualified a candidate to suggest they'd enforce existing pornography laws.
I wonder if they think Newt Gingrich should be disqualified?
Former Speaker Newt Gingrich in a face-to-face meeting: When MIM’s Executive Director Dawn Hawkins asked former Speaker Gingrich if he will enforce existing laws that make distribution of hard-core adult pornography illegal, he responded: “Yes, I will appoint an Attorney General who will enforce these laws.”Oops. Romney said the same thing.
So today, the Gingrich folks got punked by the liberal media. It's not hard, because they are desparate.
A. Gingrich didn’t post a policy paper on pornography as a CENTRAL THEME of his campaign for President. Santorum did.
B. Gingrich was answering a follow up question from a reporter. Not making it a central campaign issue as Santorum did.
C. Perhaps you would LIKE Obama for another 4 years. Polls show even GOP don’t want anymore RELIGIOUS and social values talk. But if you want to hand the election to Obama - by all means. Support the guy who claims to be “adamantly prolife” then campaigns for a PRO-partial birth abortion candidate. Support the guy who claims to care about family values then covers up the affair of a fellow Senator who is sleeping with the wife of his staffer and who dismisses homosexual priests and who wouldn’t condemn Foley for whom HE recruited the victims.

Santorum's argument was the laws are not being enforced. One Freeper in the bag for Rick went as far as accusing anyone critical of Santorum's statement as defending child porn.
Your Newt "quote" is that the law will be enforced. It makes no claim the laws aren't already being enforced to his liking.
The message is clearly this: Santorum doesn't think the obscenity standard used now is broad enough.
