Sh*t @RickSantorum Says

Thanks to the Americans Against the Tea Party Facebook page for sharing this video (below). Granted, some of it is edited to enhance his ignorance and insanity… but he’s still both.

The religious beliefs of Rick Santorum (or fill-in-the-blank Republican candidate) have no power and, God forbid he ever get elected as President, will never be considered law in this country. The First Amendment says it, “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof.”

Note: I’ve wondered if we, the LGBT community, established our own religion where marriage between two loving, adult, individuals was part of that doctrine, could we argue our case considering the above?

So, with respect to anyone’s chosen religion, those beliefs have no bearing in United States law. If you believe homosexuality is a sin and that the LGBT community has no right to your sacred marriage… fine. Believe it deep in your heart. Just know that your insistance will have no impact on our law and one day all people will be free to marry the person they love… whether you like it or not.

And if these candidates continue to call back to what the Founding Fathers believed… well, there is evidence to the contrary waiting for them.

Now, enjoy this compilation.

About the author

I’m Tommy, a writer and storyteller who works in marketing for the arts and cultural communities. I’m the author of Mabel Stanley and the Town That Was Built All Wrong, a fun and heartfelt book, and I’m currently working on a novel about self-discovery and the complexities of memory. Writing is a big part of my life, but I also enjoy creating experiences that bring people together, which is why my husband, Matt, and I co-run the online store Have Fun Spread Joy. It’s all about embracing the playful side of life and giving back along the way. I’m married to Matt, and we share our home with our two pets, Zoey (the cat) and Dixie (the dog). When I’m not writing, working on our store, or doing marketing for the arts, I like to dive into theater, something I want to get more involved with over time. I was diagnosed with ADHD, and while it comes with its own set of challenges, it also gives me a unique perspective that I try to channel into everything I do. Whether it’s writing, working on creative projects, or finding ways to spread joy, I’m all about making a lasting impact in whatever I do.
