Yep, and it really doesn't matter whether RS would actually do this or not, and it doesn't matter whether he was taken out of context. All that matters is A: that he would even go into areas like this, and he will because he simply cannot help himself and B: many of his supporters LIKE this about him.
Thus, the few reasonable folks who support RS are left with no basis because the majority of his supporters DO think this is the proper role of President.

I agree. The point is not whether Santorum would actually do this or not........the point is that many of his supporters, and financial backers etc. believe in nanny statism. They believe that one of the roles of government is to make people more moral. Look at all the “sin” taxes Rick has voted for in his career!
