AND NOW . . . amidst billowing clouds of fragrant, aromatic first- and second-hand premium cigar smoke. . . it is time for . . . that harmless, lovable little fuzz ball, the highly-trained broadcast specialist, having more fun than a human being should be allowed to have, from behind the golden EIB microphone, firmly ensconced in the prestigious Attila-the-Hun chair at the Limbaugh Institute of Advanced Conservative Studies, serving humanity simply by showing up, and he’s not retiring until every American agrees with him, do NOT doubt him, with shrieks of joy at the mere mention of his name...
Regardless of his intentions, Santorum's statements about Satan, sensuality, and a state's "right" to ban birth control have and will continue to provide the Democrats and their media friends with an easy target to hit.
So which self-destructive, unambitious youngster are you supporting?
Feel free to rephrase that comment.
Satan is present in our society. What part of that don’t you understand?
States rights, dummy.
um, does your elevator go all the way to the top? now he wants congress to declare a war on sensualism?
As a Catholic, I do declare war on Satan, you are welcome.
are trying to tell me Catholics aren’t sensual?
Interesting that your Republican roots go back to 1840, when the Republican party was forming and people who are free love and anti-war needed a home.
now you have one in Ron Paul, but he still isn’t a Republican.
Well, this certainly is a campaign all about ideas for you, huh? I find it hard to believe that such a kind, amiable, high-minded, idealistic Santorum supporter can still be a miss.
you have already demonstrated that fact can't enter your head - nothing new here
Eva, I don’t support Romney and I agree that many Americans (but not I) are anti-Mormon, but at least Romney does a better job than Santorum from keeping his unpopular religious beliefs in the deep background.
I don’t know. I don’t believe it was Andrea Tarantula’s mom. Rush cut away quickly but didn’t mention it again. If it was she was a Mommy Dearest with daughter issues.
Rush loves well spoken callers. He just hates idiots. And rude idiots are the worst. She wouldn’t stop talking and he couldn’t have a dialogue with her because she wouldn’t shut up.
Most people on this thread wanted to throttle her.
Maybe it was you???
The Tenth Amendment only grants States or the people unspecified powers (not rights), and States are only granted powers not "prohibited by [the US Constitution] to the States." Several other amendments provide strong arguments against State prohibition of birth control.
The Ninth Amendment makes it clear that the people are presumed by the framers as having protected rights not specified in the Constitution. Arguably, reproductive freedom is one of those presumed rights since there were no State restrictions in place to my knowledge when the Bill of Rights was passed. Other amendments which suuport an argument against a state power to ban birth control are the First Amendment's free exercise of religion clause, the Fourth Amendment's prohibition of unreasonable searches and seizures, and the Fifth Amendment's due process provisions, all of which are applicable to the States under the Fourteenth Amendment.
Santorum has argued that states have a "right" to ban contraceptives, so your 10th amendment "powers" argument does not support Santorum's States' rights argument. Apparently Santorum never learned the difference between rights and powers in law school, which is troubling in itself.
I would expect a politician like Santorum with a law degree to have a better working knowledge of the Constitution by now. Keep in mind that anyone who recognizes a State's right to ban contraception is also suggesting that States have a right to require contraception. Suppose a State passes a law requiring all married females under 25 to use contraception based on their findings that younger women are not sufficiently prepared for the demands of motherhood. Santorum's interpretation of the Constitition would support such forced contraception.
Show me the evidence of that and explain how you're going to fight the Spiritual War against sensuality with Santorum. Who are you going to attack next? More clinics?
and you have said nothing to prove otherwise - just guessed and presumed and twisted
my background has nothing to do with the facts - since you seem to think only a lawyer can have an opinion on this, facts espoused by mark levin
your pathetic attempts to equate unrelated things does nothing to prove your point - states can ban drugs - but have zero power to force drugs on people
you really, really need to take my recommendation and get some education - stuff that makes sense in your pointy head have nothing to do with reality
maybe you should try the commerce clause next
I’m not a Santorum supporter, I’m a Gingrich supporter. You are a supporter of an absolute nutcase - a bigot, a writer of racist newsletters and a complete weirdo who should be put out to pasture. Which will be happening soon enough.
Oh do you now? Did God ask your opinion on who should be the first person to see the Risen Christ? (Hint, a prostitute?). How about who should not only be the most famous King in Israel’s history, but the King singled out for lineage to Jesus? (Hint, an adulterer who used murder to aid his adulterous act).
So, who angered Jesus more than anyone? (HINT: Pharisees, not sure whether they wore sweater vests or not...).
Just sayin.....I’m not so sure you know.
Utter rubbish- This was not the intent of Santorum

Thank you very much and my apologies to everyone. Had a problem with the computer I use for FR. I can’t use a work computer and bring my laptop from home.
I’m sorry and will post the thread tomorrow.
don’t let it happen again
