Santorum was saying that there is no guaruntee to privacy under the constitution. The comparison that he should have used is that there is no guaruntee to the right to use drugs if you do it withing the confines of your home. He said that Texas has the right to make laws as they see fit in Texas. He added that if New York wants to overturn their sodomy laws, that is their perogative. He said he would disagree with that decision,but it is the right of New York to pass laws as they see fit.

That's a fair argument...but then, by that logic, shouldn't New York be able to legalize gay marriage? Currently, the federal Defense of Marriage act prohibits that.
