1. Because, believe it or not even in this Christian nation, saying the America is under attack by Satan is considered by many a bit odd, and honestly, fringe.
2. Santorum went to a Catholic setting and gave his thoughts. I don’t recall Gingrich ever doing that, nor speaking of “Satan.” He may be in fact, one of those many Catholics who is more “Jesus is Love” and unconcerned about “The Devil is Bad”
Listen, I don’t care one way or the other in a theological sense since I’m not Christian and don’t believe in “Satan”. Politically, however, the last thing we need is a Huckabee type talking about Satan and the evils of birth control. We need someone talking about jobs and smaller government.
It is said hundreds (thousands?) of times every single day, and it is a decidedly Christian population in the USA. So, it is not fringe.
Except in the LameStream Media that is an opponent of Christianity.
The words of the Apostle Paul: "the devil as a roaring lion roams about seeking whom he may devour."
Also Paul's words: "whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved."
Change the word Satan to forces of evil and would you really disagree? Do you think America has been "moving in the right direction" the past several years?

Guess what? They are ALL part of the same problem.
Because of the contraception/abortion culture of America over the last fifty years, our population is missing somewhere between 60 and 100 million people.
Just what would these tens of millions of Americans be doing?:
1. They would be PAYING TAXES and helping to lower the tax burden on the rest of us (things like defense really don't cost any more with 400 million people than they do with 300 million). They would also be paying PAYROLL TAXES and this would lessen (probably eliminate) the strain on Social Security and Medicare.
2. They would have JOBS. Everyone likes to complain about illegal aliens, but nobody wants to address the fact that in vibrant economic times there simply aren't enough American workers. One reason for this is because they were never born.
3. They would be SPENDING MONEY. That's how an economy grows, by people spending money, more people equals more demand, it's really that simple.
The decline of every great civilization in history has ALWAYS been preceded by a decline in population growth.
The left and libertarians can spout all they want about how contraception and abortion are "personal choices," but the FACT remains that these choices have economic consequences that affect all of us.
