As a Pennsylvanian, if he really said this then he needs to be canned. We don't need a Senator who doesn't know the Constitution. Our system of checks and balances put all three branches of government in place so they could watch each other. None is higher than the other. Each has a function, and part of that function is to keep the other two in line.
In Roe v. Wade and later rulings the SCOTUS has overstepped its bounds. The only reason they have gotten away with it is that the executive and legslitave branches haven't held it to account. If Santorum doesn't understand that particular responsibility of his branch, he needs to go do a job that he does understand.
On another front, I wish the doc had asked Santorum if he feels the same way when he hears a child screeming for mercy while being beaten by his parents. Either the womb houses a baby or it doesn't. That's a matter of fact, not of opinion. And it is therefore a public policy issue, not a private issue.
Now, where's teacup with those pictures?
Shalom.
