Former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum is clarifying — but not stepping back from — surprising comments this weekend in support of former Olympian Bruce Jenner's decision to come out as a transgender woman.

"If he says he's a woman, then he's a woman," Santorum told BuzzFeed during a roundtable discussion in South Carolina on Saturday.

Santorum continued: "My responsibility as a human being is to love and accept everybody. Not to criticize people for who they are."

If he says he's a woman, then he's a woman ... and it's your responsibility as a human being is to love and accept everybody ... not to criticize people for who they are!

[just me]

He is an ugly woman...

[boycott]

If he says he’s a frog, does that make him one?

Rick is clueless.

[ViLaLuz]

Yes, love him enough to tell him the truth and get him help. Enabling his sickness is not love, it’s actually a form of destruction.

[boycott]

Rick, If he said he was born gay, does that make it so?

[CGASMIA68]

its not my responsibility,its my option or choice.

Rick, let me let you in on a fact of life. No matter what Bruce has cut off or added on, he will NEVER be a woman. You can change a lot of things but the X-Y chromosome makeup will NEVER change. He will always be a man. Period.

...and accept everybody.

Bullsh!t

Rick, Bruce has as much chance of being a woman as you do of being President.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Gender Derangement Syndrome uber alles.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Maybe even more of a chance.

He is an ugly woman...

I say he/she is a fugly woman..

I suppose the 2012 primary voters decided not to nominate Rick because they knew he would be back, and it would be “his turn.” But Jebbie has a thing or two to say about that. And with clueless voters, HRC is laughing at the unfolding events.

Great picture!

Santorum continued: "My responsibility as a human being is to love and accept everybody. Not to criticize people for who they are."

we're not even supposed to criticize anyone now?

are we supposed to be ok with pedophiles now? zoophiles? necrophiles? the poly-amorous? the drug addled?

i see.

how about, no. that's not a country i want to live in. hell, that's not even a circus sideshow i'd want to see.
