I would be reassured if came out that Rick Santorum was high on something when he said that.
Santorum explains his remarks:
“Many of you may have read a story published by the website BuzzFeed where I was asked for my thoughts regarding Bruce Jenner. My comment affirmed Jenner as a person, made by God in His likeness as we all are. It was meant to express empathy not a change in public policy. #compassion”
Sorry Rick, you said “if he says he’s a woman, then he’s a woman”. That is not cool. If I say I’m the Dark Lord of the Sith, am I? It is okay if I demand society treats me as their evil overlord and master?
I have compassion for Jenner believe it or not, as I’ve said he seems like a decent guy who is very very sick. The compassionate thing is NOT to indulge his mental illness and tell him it’s normal. It is not normal for a man to want to have his penis mutilated and subject himself to ridicule by dressing up like a girl. Some people have “Body integrity identity disorder” where they desire to have one or more of their limbs cut off either because it feels like an alien appendage to them or they just really really want to be an amputee, doctors don’t indulge THAT. At least I sure hope they don’t.
If it quacks like a duck, looks like a duck, swims like a duck, it’s an ostrich?
It’s not like the guy was gonna do well in the primaries anyway but he just hung himself, he was the “social issues” guy. The gays hated him so much they use his name as a term for a vile product of homosexual sex.
I’m not surprised much but Santorum has surprised me. From henceforth he shall be known as Dickie Santorum.
Santorum never impressed me.
I remember back in 2005 Mark Levin playing him up as the next conservative POTUS candidate, then PA booted him in 2006 Senate election.
His attempt in 2011/2012 was a joke, even Newt was beating him out.
Nothing he says strikes me as insightful, inspiring or thoughtful.
“If I say I’m the Dark Lord of the Sith, am I? It is okay if I demand society treats me as their evil overlord and master?”
What is thy bidding, my master?
We criticize the left, but with geniuses like Dickie Santorum on “our” side, it’s almost hypocritical.
