Rick Santorum: 'Love and accept' Bruce Jenner (If he says he's a woman, then he's a woman)
CNN ^ | May 3, 2015 | Alexandra Jaffe

Posted on 05/04/2015 5:49:44 AM PDT by Zakeet

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."

That is the problem. There has been too much ‘acceptance’ and ‘respect’.

We have allowed the culture to degenerate into a rotting, maggot infested, zombie.

And now the zombie wants to eat us.

We should not hate anyone - but we definitely need to get in peoples faces and push back. Hard.

“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.”

Yes, self loathing and a desire to mutilate ones self is an illness. Rick is either pandering or displaying a lack of knowledge and common sense. I was never comfortable with him as a Presidential candidate.

Why not? We have a president claiming to be the Messiah.

Rick Sanitorium has always rubbed me the wrong way. Something about the guy I just never could relate to.

Now his holier-than-thou attitude and his softness on un-naturalness and self-mutilation makes me think he's mentally had some of the same surgery as Jenner.

Certain politicians just cannot resist holding forth on any subject asked about, whether they are knowledgeable or not. They almost never do themselves any favors.

Dear Ex-Senator Sanatorium: Your mindset concerning this has given America the legally-forced acceptance of affirmative action, the Gay Gestapo and Islam. Just saying.

And if Rick says he’s a conservative, then he’s a conservative. /s

"If he says he's a woman, then he's a woman,"

NO, HE IS NOT!! Sorry for shouting; but, it doesn't matter what he says, it doesn't matter how much surgery he has; it doesn't matter, if he lets his hair grow and wears make-up.

Take a blood sample. It will come back MALE. You cannot change that. The fact that he thinks this, shows a mental instability.

Now, I feel sorry for people who struggle with this problem. But, you cannot change your biological make-up. And, I think that all of these people jumping on this bandwagon and saying, well, if that's how he feels, then he is a woman. No, he is having a mental breakdown and needs help. Unfortunately, the people who are licensed to help in such matters have decided to promote and push this nonsense, so where does someone go who wants help with this problem, other than redoing their genitals and trying desperately to be something they are not.

***”If he says he’s a woman, then he’s a woman,” ***

All the prostitutes in Paris called Henri De Toulouse-Lautrec the”Little Teapot”(for reasons not mentioned here). Did that make him go around telling the world...”I’m a little tea pot short and stout! tip me over and pour me out!”?

I’m very accepting. I even took “Dude Looks Like a Lady” off my playlist.

Goodbye Rick Santorum! With this, you have ruined all your chances of running for president in 2016.

I could never stand the guy either. Something is not right with Rick.

Sanctimonious Santorum just blew away what remained of his base.

Is there a fourth "tier" for GOP candidates? If so, I doubt if he's even able to stay at that level with his viewpoints pandering to the small percentage of sex-obsessed, easily-titillated, freak-loving GOP primary voters.

Dominus vobiscum, Rick....permanently!

Sorry, Rick, but you are now an idiot.

He is not a woman, not a Martian, not an angel, not a dog, etc.
