The vast majority of Americans believe in tolerance, not the fundamentalist/bigoted views articulated in this post.

Wrong. The vast majority of Americans believes homosexuality is immoral and opposes gay marriage. Majorities in some states support sodomy laws. Hardly anyone who opposes such laws, except for those who actually benefit from them, cares very much about them. Those who do care aren't voting Republican anyway.

Most states have been repealing sodomy laws...Why? Because as the previous poster said MOST Americans believe in tolerance.

Most Americans DO NOT want police breaking down bedroom doors and arresting adults for homosexuality or adultery.
That is what the Santorum controversy is about, and the author of the article clearly doesn't get it.

The fact that most people think adultery, pornography, homosexuality etc is all immoral...doesn't mean they want to live some fundamentalist Islamic like state that hacks of people's hands and shots women in the head in public for being unfaithful.

The previous poster is right. If the Republican party is so foolish as to follow the advice in this article they will absolutely become a minority party.
