“. . . I think the Democrats are actually worried he [Obama] may go to Indonesia and bow to more Muslims. . . ”
". . . Many of the Christian faith have said, well, that’s OK; contraception is OK. It’s not OK. It’s a license to do things in a sexual realm that is counter to how things are supposed to be. . . ”
" . . . “That’s not to pick on homosexuality. It’s not, you know, man on child, man on dog, or whatever the case may be. . . "
" . . . Here is something Rick Santorum just said about global warming: "The dangers of carbon dioxide? Tell that to a plant, how dangerous carbon dioxide is," he said. . . "
". . . A few days ago, GOP Presidential candidate Rick Santorum put his foot
in his mouth by saying “I don’t want to make
black people’s lives better by giving them somebody else’s money". . . “I looked at that, and I didn't say that. If you look at it, what I
started to say is a word and then sort of changed and it sort of - blah
- came out. And people said I said ‘black.’ I didn't," . . . “And I can tell you, I don't use - I don't - first off, I don't use
the term ‘black’ very often. I use the term ‘African-American’ more than
I use ‘black' ... I think sometimes you want to give someone the
benefit of the doubt if it's a little bit of a blurred word. . . "
. . .BUT, upon hearing yesterday's news, I suddenly viewed Rick Santorum as . . . well, as a human being. . .
". . . GOP presidential candidate Rick Santorum’s campaign
says his hospitalized daughter is recovering and could be released
soon. Santorum spokesman Hogan Gidley said Monday that
3-year-old Bella could be released from a northern Virginia hospital by
the end of the day. She was hospitalized Friday. Her father did not
campaign Monday so he could be with his daughter, who suffers from a
rare genetic condition. Bella was hospitalized earlier this year with
pneumonia. Her father faces an uphill battle against front-runner Mitt
Romney in the race for the Republican presidential nomination. Santorum
often says Bella wasn’t expected to live beyond her first birthday. . . "
I can't say "I'll pray for her" because since I don't believe petitioning an invisible, omniscient, theistic and invasive being accomplishes anything (one of many areas where I disagree with Santorum). But, I can say with all honesty and sincerity with regard to Bella, I hope all goes well.
