Democratic Presidential candidate Howard Dean on Wednesday for Senator Rick Santorum to resign his leadership post after the lawmaker compared homosexuality to bigamy, polygamy, incest and adultery.
'Gay bashing is not a legitimate public policy discussion, it is immoral.
Rick Santorum's failure to recognize that attacking people because of who they are is morally wrong makes him unfit for a leadership position in the United States Senate.'

This is the democraps usual strategy: Ask an inflammatory question, then use the answers to drown the speaker.
If a democrap senator has said the exact same words as this republican senator then he would be held as a hero...

Win by intimidation and judicial activism - it's the liberal mode of operation. They are scared of real debate. They're debatephobes.

Howard Who?
To: ewing
This incident will get legs for sure. It's only Wednesday and by Friday, Santorum's name will be on the lips of every network newsreader as Lott jr. Thank God Fox News has the following it does.

All right Howard let's get one thing straight. If I want to engage in a legitimate discussion I'll talk to a conservative, not some gay wedding priest/governor from vermont.
To: camle
THAT's really what is going on here, I believe.....the Left is really teetering and I'm hoping Santorum pushes them over the edge and comes out saying...."Am I NOT allowed an OPINION?"

Dean would make a splendid Damnocrat nominee for president. He and Bush can duke it out over the gay issue, and it'll come out just like in liberal Vermont, where Republicans surged in the ensuing election.
Gay marriage and the agenda of the gay lobby are two big winning issues for Republicans.

Keep up the "GOD" Work Rick! I'll support you even if the republicans pull out the Trent Lott game plan.
Which I hope they don't!
To: AMNZ
I certainly hope so. He admitted to breaking the law, obstructing justice to be exact. Any votes to acquit were based on party politics.
