Santorum’s daughter has an escape route- if she marries someone, her surname can be changed! 

However, it is a sad thing to know that your dad is a…..errr….piece of santorum!

Internet bullying.  It reflects badly on you for endorsing it.

Savage is a hero for equality. Santorum is a frothy mixture of lube and fecal matter.

So internet bullying is worse than actual bullying?

“[I have] a problem with homosexual acts, as I would with what I
would consider to be acts outside of traditional heterosexual
relationships . . . if the Supreme Court says that you have the right to
consensual [gay] sex within your home, then you have the right to
bigamy, you have the right to polygamy, you have the right to incest,
you have the right to adultery.” –Rick Santorum on gay sex, AP interview

Negativity reflects badly on the attacker only if the object of attack is a sympathetic figure. If I say Hitler was a depraved monster, that is negative but more than deserved. Santorum is an excuse for an organism.

You are too kind to Santorum.

So you approve of this internet campaign?  Should there be an internet campaign against President Obama because he has not explicitly said he supports same sex marriage? 

Nope, because when you become an adult, you realize there are degrees, not just black and white.  Santorum compares homosexuality to bestiality and incest.  Obama doesn’t.

Savage reacts to a societal issue (Which Dems also won’t fix) by assaulting persons that have as little impact on the issue as a supportive Democrat.   Savage criticizing young people stealing and drinking is fine, picking some kid out of a crowd and beating on him because he’s in the ‘same category’ is very, very wrong.     On the issue, gay and lesbian partners should have a legal form of partnership that would provide the same protections married people have.  The whole argument about calling it a partnership or a marriage should be separate from the arguments to address the inequality problem.  A traditional marriage is a partnership.  A gay/lesbian coupling is also a partnership, though it isn’t a traditional marriage.

When Obama uses anti gay rhetoric like comparing gay marriage to bestiality or incest in an attempt to win the bigot vote like certain candidates on the right, I’m sure he’ll be the target of just as much vitriol and rightly so, but that hasn’t happened and probably never will.

So the definition you get when you Google santorum is supposed to be disturbing?  But doesn’t the definition remind people of man on man sex?  So now people are forming a negative impression of man on man sex.  That is an unintended consequence of this internet bullying campaign.  I just don’t see any good side to this.

The joke is to equate someone with the thing that person hates.  As a person who finds Santorum to be loathsome, I find his Google problem to be HILARIOUS! 

Are you sure?  Santorum said that in the context it implies, and Obama explicitly said he doesn’t see it in the way Santorum described?    How much of the viscous attacks are because of what party one is in compared to the other?   Neither has introduced legislation to address it.  Actually, if I recall, Obama barely did anything when Senator other than vote present when not voting the party line.

Not once, ever, have I heard Obama utter an unkind word regarding homosexuality.  Sure, he is not explicitly for gay marriage, and that is crazy, but he has not said such horrible things or made it a cornerstone of his public persona the way Santorum has.

Separate is not equal

The takeaway here is that “the frothy mixture of lube and fecal matter that is sometimes the byproduct of anal sex” is the full extent of Savage’s cleverness. That the best he could come up with to zing Santorum with is the stuff around his own butthole when he’s done “making love”.

It’s childish, it’s puerile and it doesn’t fit the target at all. But then, Savage never was a very bright boy. http://www.mediaite.com/online/dan-savage-demands-sexual-favors-from-herman-cain-in-poorly-thought-out-publicity-stunt/

Only if you do not approve.

MANY would also not like to read about the same by products created in traditional sex.

Savage appears to be abundantly crewl when he wants to be.

 
If it is such a “tiny minority” then why does it warrant such extensive news coverage and advocacy from the national media? Forget Native Americans or Asian Americans, Latino Americans are the largest minority group in the country and they don’t get the press that this “tiny minority” gets. My guess is that the answer is that the media is most interested in themselves.

I am an athiest myself, but I will throw in with christians with traditional american values long before I will with some sicko who likes to play in fecal matter like Dan Savage.

We only need two rules.  Don’t hurt anyone.  Don’t break anything.  That’s what they told us in kindergarten and it still holds true.  Santorum seems like a nasty little attack dog.

Dude, it’s lunchtime.

Wow.  First of all I’ll give you the obvious;  50% of Gay Americans are woman and they do not, as far as I know, like to “play in fecal matter” with one another. That is clearly not the target of their orientation as they have another option.

Have you seen a Str8 porno since 1980? …. Because Str8 people love their backend activities. In fact, a 2010 study published in the Journal of Medicine found that over 60% of boys and girls had engaged in anal sex by the age of 19. Yes, NINETEEN.  It would appear that the sexual behaviors of Gay men and Heterosexuals aren’t all that far apart and in fact are trending towards one another.

Just because you do it missionary with the lights out doesn’t mean the rest of Hetero America is following your example.

Savage is the answer to the question of why Liberals can never ever ever accuse republicans of being the source of hateful negativity in the political realm today. Don’t forget this is the guy who tried to infect an entire political campaign with the flu by coughing on their phones and sneazing on their keyboards.
And mister nice-guy savage can’t help himself from giving an 18 year old girl some snark. the only good thing about this guy is that he will never procreate.

The Dictionary is not a societal Bible.  It does not set the pace for the meaning of words.  To the contrary, it is updated to reflect society changes (not the other way around). 

I don’t mind that Santorum and his compatriots, based on their own particular faith, decry homosexual activity anymore than I mind the Catholic Church’s stand against birth control. I don’t have to join these groups. What I find offensive is that they would, through a political and legislative process, desire to superimpose  their belief systems on mine. To me it is clear that the moment that the government started giving preferential treatment (e.g., tax breaks, next of kin rights, etc. etc) to married couples it is inarguable that those same privileges would accrue to all married couples, including same sex couples. Santorum has every right to demand that his church not honor gay marriage but has no right to demand that my government follow suit. The fact that they some would take it to the extreme of not allowing gay folks to serve in our armed forces is to me evidence that Santorum and his friends are not just interested in exspousing their moral views, they are interested in mandating your compliance with those views.

Dan Savage is a despicable cretin. He’s a piece of garbage. It’s disgusting that the media refuses to hold him accountable. They praise him for his phony anti-bullying campaign even though he’s the biggest hypocrite in the world. He is himself a bully. Savage is a militant gay who wants to destroy the lives of those who disagree with him. What he is continuing to do to Santorum is an outrage and a disgrace. I’m no fan of Santorum’s social positions, but I’m even less a fan of garbage like Dan Savage. May he rot in hell.

Proably not…shes got that same dopey smirk face as her father…not pretty.

Gee, back to kindergarten for some “re-education.”

“Santorum seems like a nasty little attack dog.” 

Didn’t they tell you in kindergarten that “words hurt?”

(Oh, you can always save a seat for Santorum next to you.)

Pray tell – what exactly is Savage “doing” to Rick Santorum besides drawing a connection between Santorum’s hateful anti-gay rhetoric and its very real-world consequences?  How on earth is he trying to “destroy” *anyone’s* life? 

Calling out a bigot for being a bigot is not itself bigotry, and calling out a bully for being a bully is not itself bullying. 

But really – do please continue with your faux outrage at the one man who has constitently and publicly stood up on behalf of the thousands upon thousands of LGBT teens who are tortured on a daily basis - you know, the people whose lives are ACTUALLY ruined – because of the hateful rhetoric of bigots like Santorum. 

Let me see if I’ve got this right: Savage calls out GOP hate-ridden bigotry and rhetoric, and ergo Savage is responsible for said “hateful negativity”?

Down the rabbit hole we go, eh?

I’ve always wondered whether or not there are atheist homophobes.  Apparently bigotry comes in all stripes.

I didn’t need to know what you jerk off to anymore than I needed to know that Dan Savage really enjoys poop.

My condolences to your parents.

Santorum is pandering to the hate filled bigots. The “teas” love the hate. He does it, he says it,… there’s nothing to defend!

This explains who and what you are! No facts, just that mess.

The irony is that, now, whenever I imagnie the frothy mix of lube and fecal matter,  I picture Dan Savage. Maybe that ain’t irony.

My apologies for being so long winded. I guess I was just trying to explain that the odds are that your Dad ¢ornholed your Mom… which would explain your conception ☺

what everyone misses is Dan Savage is attacking Ricks whole family.  Rick just had his last name defined its not including his first name too.  So his entire family is bullied including children.

Tatboy…seriously?

http://dailycaller.com/2012/01/08/the-deceit-of-dan-savage/

You are really into the scatological aren’t you?. I bet all the kids in the schoolyard think you’re a laugh until they find out that you’re a pedophile. .

While I may not agree with Santorum’s stance on social issues, I respect his right to have that opinion and stand up for what he believes in.   Which is what Savage should have done as well.  State your opinion and stand for what you believe in.  Try to create a meaningful dialogue.  I daresay that Savage was only trying to garner publicity, but surely he could have done so in a better way.

My favorite MLK quote is: “Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter:” 

I applaud Savage for his work with teens who are bullied.  I do hope that he encourages those who are bullied to stand for what you believe in and don’t resort to name calling as he has done.

Scat Play and Anal Sex are two totally different things. Now turn the lights off and crawl back under the blankets for your 3 minute thrill. 

You seemed to be belittling internet bullying… I’m not discounting actual real live bulling. But you are (or it come across that way) minimizing internet bullying. I’m trying to show you it is real and it hurts… esp kids. It’s just as hurtful and damaging as the encounters in real life. And it can kill. Don’t minimize it. The other is just as bad. I’m not discounting it. But you seem to be discounting on-line harassment, bulling, and stalking. Try and understand I’m saying BOTH are terrible.

MediaTrends – I’ll leave that to the experts like you and Dan Savage

>> Media Trends: “Have you seen a Str8 porno since 1980?”

When someone starts off with a line like that, I can’t wait to hear what’s coming.
Bad pun intended!  LOL

>> Media Trends: “A 2010 study published in the Journal of Medicine found that over 60% of boys and girls had engaged in anal sex by the age of 19. Yes, NINETEEN.  It would appear that the sexual behaviors of Gay men and Heterosexuals aren’t that far apart and are trending towards one another.”

Not necessarily. That’s you simply reading into things. Then again, for that matter, I don’t see how the study has anything to do with the topic at hand. All the same, the problem is you’re taking a study whose results could be questioned to begin with (given how much people lie when asked about sex) and THEN twisting the numbers to suit your own needs.

Look, let’s round the number up to make the math easy. Let’s say I take 100 teens (50 boys and 50 girls) and ask who’s tried anal sex. 60 teens raise their hands. I then ask “Okay, who did you do it with?”  At that point, 4 to 6 of the boys look at each other. That’s your “gay percentile sampling” right there, which would statistically reflect the number of gays in the general population (4 to 6%).

That still leaves a whopping 54 to 56 boys and girls, an overwhelming majority, who simply TRIED anal sex for recreation, experimentation, because they were drunk at the time, whatever. And truth be told, they’re teens — which means they’re just looking to get off because they ARE freaking horny teens!

Now, just because a bunch of horny teens tried anal sex DOESN’T mean they enjoyed it. Or even if they thought it felt okay, that doesn’t mean they plan to include it in future sex. Heck, for that matter, the point of the study is that they simply TRIED it. In other words, you could be part of that 60% pool for simply trying it ONCE — heck, for only trying it for a second or two — at which point one partner might have felt awkward and said “Okay! Enough of that! We’re done here!”

The point being it’s a REAL STRETCH to conclude that just because a bunch of horny teens have TRIED anal sex that is a direct correlation to “gays and heterosexuals trending towards one another” (as you stated). And it’s equally laughable to think that just because a modern porn film shows anal sex that THAT is an accurate barometer of Main Street USA’s sexual life too.

With regards to THAT, I can tell you this (speaking as someone who knows people in the porn industry, on the production end). The whole POINT of a porn film is to PURPOSEFULLY structure it, so that (on average) you end up with 4 or 5 scenes. Where each scene then focuses on a particular sexual act (oral, missionary, cowgirl, anal, threesome). That way, viewers stand a solid chance of seeing their favorite fetish onscreen at least once — which, in turn, will make them happy customers!

But more to the point, it almost seems as if you’re trying to make the incredibly tenuous argument that just because heterosexuals have tried anal sex THAT must mean they approve of gay sex. And like domino’s falling, THAT must mean they approve of the gay lifestyle. And, hey, if you approve of gay sex…and the gay lifestyle…why stop there? So I guess if you’ve ever tried anal sex, then I guess THAT must mean you support of gay marriage too!  And so on and so on…

Like I said, it just seems like you’re making a real STRETCH and presuming a heckuva LOT given one nutty study that you’re citing…

Why can’t he have his own opinion without being bullied by this savage?  Bullying cuts both ways. 

Is this the height of hypocrisy or what?  Whoever the hell Dan Savage is, is trying to claim Santorium is a bully by bullying Santorum for his beliefs.

Because Santorum is the first bully here.  Homosexual people were minding their own business and Santorum brought them into the national debate to win cheap points and he says awful things about them.

Its no crime to bully a bully.

I am not minimizing actual real life bullying.

But Santorum is the bully here, in the real world.  Savage is just making a very long term joke.  This is not internet bullying.  Santorum is making the lives of gay people bad by encouraging bullying.

That’s Savage’s mess, not mine, Timmah! Speaking of no facts, how’s life working out for you?

big·ot   [big-uht]  
noun – a person who is utterly intolerant of any differing creed, belief, or opinion.Dan Savage is a bigot himself. (intolerant of any differing opinion) The only difference between him and Santorum is Dan is the one sinking to the level of vile personal attacks toward one individual.

You watch too much porn. In the real world, the vast majority of women consider the back door a one-way exit.

I am going to describe my era you guys remember  Boy George had a hit song chameleon  or something I thought the guy was just colorful, Cindy Lauper was a cool chic with her nice songs I didn’t get the meaning of her songs till I was older I was a kid and her songs were infectious. George Michael was a sex symbol and I loved him when he was in Wham followed him when he went solo,his song “Faith” is still the shit to this day when he came out later on I can honestly say I never saw that 1 coming I had my money on Prince, well what can I say looks can’t be deceiving  and the immortal band  Queen( Fred Mercury) were rock gods…
Like most straight people I grew up not been aware they were even gay people 2 begin until we started hearing about the aids epidemic so  I understand how some1 can being apprehensive of gay people.It wasn’t until when I was reached my late teens that I was really shed my negative preconception.What made  easy for me was I had a friend who was a lesbian and since we grew up in the same neighborhood and we were friends when she came out It wasn’t a big shocking event cause we all felt she different since childhood.
The transition help me and most people who knew her accept it and move on.However I took me more time with the gays guys,don’t know why.Anyways that fear left me by the time I was freshmen in college and I realized the absurdity of it.
In my humble opinion I think the adults who are still homophobes now must be insecure in the sexuality that’s the only reason I can imagine cause who cares what 2 adults do.From the moment it is consensual.
Some people bring in religious grounds when they are short of convincing arguments.I was raised catholic and I find it strange cause I don’t remember a lot of sermons about gays when I was younger I think this a new strain of scapegoating that is more recent then in the old days ask any1 who went to church in the 90s.
The Irony is some of my friends who are hate gay people in general are actually fond of lesbians or have fantasies of 3somes with them and don’t seem to see the disconnect in their logic.
In fact the most shocking revelation was a discussion about anal sex between my friend and his wife when she told me at party having  drinks in the kitchen, my friend had been bothering her to have anal intercourse and she was against.My beer almost dropped and I had to pretend not appear to be  amazed at this sudden revelation .Here was my homophobic buddy going for anal sex while me the open minded dude It never even crossed my mind and don’t get me wrong during my wild days I dated some pretty freaky girls who were in 2 it but I never saw the appeal like webcam stuff not my preference  but whatever rocks your boat do it.
Anyway Santorum is a radical who is even against condoms or birth control for married couples I mean that WTF and his fighting for the name of FREEDOM against government intrusion. Like my deluded friend he can’t see holds contradictory views.

Agree. Savage had a brilliant idea that gave a lot of us strength to stand against reactionaries.

My brother is gay, most of my friends are gay. And my position on gay marriage isn’t “evolving” like the POTUS. I support it wholeheartedly. My brother and his friends don’t support Savage because they think he goes to far and has some pretty ugly views toward people he doesn’t like. Look up his statements on the overweight or transgendered…. you’ll be surprised how cruel this guy can be for claiming to be against bullying.

And I was more referring to Savage being so mean and cruel to Santorums kid.

What effin moral universe do you live in?

You’re just writing words that mean nothing. You have no idea of the history of those words. You are in fact a blow hard.

There are atheists who rationally understand the dysfunction of homosexuality. They are not homophobes nor bigots. You lack understanding.

I am waiting for your rebuttal.

The word Homophobe implies Phychological Fear of the Homsexual. I don’t know anyone who is afraid of the ‘gay’ next door. This small minority finds toleration of differences inadequate. We are commanded to celebrate deviance, it is a deviation from the norm. That explains why they are ‘a small minority’!

Are you disputing Santorum is a bully?

I admire Santorum for standing up for what he believes.  Homosexuality is perversion, as is sex with animals.  Polygamy, while I think it is not fair to women, especially, is not perversion of natural sex roles.  That said…I challenge any homosexual to be honest …if you are, you will admit to some tramatic event in your young or adolescent life (sometimes psychologically hidden or denied) which turned you toward homosexuality. Every homosexual I’ve known…man or woman…has either been molested or raped as a child, had a very dominating mother, etc.  Homosexuality is not normal… a person is not born a homosexual. My daughter majored in psychology and I suggested to her that she write her Master’s paper on this topic…she told me she would probably get servious threats from the homosexual community…some of which has lots of money and power….That is why many politicans keep quiet about this topic…they will lose donations, especially from the entertainment industry.  Most of us who think homosexuality is wrong morally, religiously, disgusting physically (Savage’s definition of Santorum’s name, drawn from his experience, no doubt, is one of the very reasons it is disgusting, sickening in fact…as is what the women do…ick!) and not ‘normal’, are not “homophobics”…we do not persecute, discriminate against, bully, or fear homosexuals…we simply do not beleive what they practice is right. I do believe any two people in a domestic partnership should have the same ‘legal rights’ as a married couple…the law does favor those who marry (what about those who cannot find a partner to marry, or simply don’t want to?) .   Just don’t call it ‘marriage’…let churches marry people who have a filed a domestic partnership license.  Keep church and state separate…and let political candidates voice their opinions on any subject openly!  I think most can handle the criticism…wasn’t it Truman (?) who said, “if you can’t stand the heat get out of the kitchen?”…or something like that.

Yes, it is ironic…I’ve cleaned a lot of motel rooms in my day…changed lots of beds (hundreds, maybe thousands)…it was always the homosexual men who left the mess Savage describes on the bed linens…not the straight couples.  Yes, occasionally there was a bit of stain…but not like the homosexual guys wiping themselves off on the sheet!  Disgusting!

“Every homosexual I’ve known…man or woman…has either been molested or raped as a child, had a very dominating mother, etc.  Homosexuality is not normal… a person is not born a homosexual.”

You obviously do not know many gay people. You are a hateful and ignorant person.

Santorum brought it on himself for being an *sshole.

There are gay grasshopper and pangolins. If it’s good enough for mother nature then I’m okay with it. But then I use fire to cool my drinks.

I feel the same way about the Google bombing of Rick Santorum as I do about capital punishment of murderers.  It’s  not right, even though he probably deserves it.

The point of the article and Savages explanation is that those like Santorum who actively campaign to oppose SSM and actively spread thier antigay bigotry aren’t simply expressing a different opinion. They are contributing to the great harm done to many innocent people because of decades of anti gay sentiment, and our gay citizens being demonized as sick and perverse. They are trying to maintain an attitude that harms innocent citizens for no good reason and without one iota of evidence to support thier attitudes. Savage may have gone to far, but I object to calling what Santirum does just a difference of opinions. Is there any other hateful harmful bigotry we that would be excused as just a difference of opinion?

I call bullshit. Nobody is asking anyone to celebrate thier homosexuality. It’s likley they don’t give a crap what you think. What they demand is simply equality , like any other citizen. for those who choose to deny them that equality for no good reason and without one iota of evidence to support thier objections, homophobe is a fairly accurate term.

“SANTORUM: I would be a voice in speaking out for making sure that every
person in America, gay or straight, is treated with respect and dignity
and has equality of opportunity.”

Superficially it sounds reasonable doesn’t it?  Here’s something to consider. As a matter of record Santorum is clearly not the voice for making sure everyone is treated with respect and dignity and equality. Where is the respect is comparing homosexuality to beastiality and pediphilia? Where is the dignity in telling our gay citizens their desire for equal rights somehow harms society?
Personally I’m tired of people assuming bigotry presented somewhat politely is not really bigotry, and therefore not hateful, and not damaging and demeaning to thier fellow citizens. I’m tired of people defending thier personal bigotry as just thier opinion, or a casual disagreement. even as the majority you don’t get to casually harm others who have done you no harm, and deny equality to your fellow citizens for no good reason, and with absolutely zero evidence. You can’t defend bigotry by cloaking it in religion either. Bigotry needs to be called out and challenged and exposed for what it is, continuously. Savage may have done it a particularly nasty manner but in truth, it pales in comparison to the very real pain and suffered caused to innocents by Santorums brand of bigotry. That he continues to defend and justify it, is far more profane than Savage has been.

 ”My daughter majored in psychology and I suggested to her that she write her Master’s paper on this topic…she told me she would probably get serious threats from the homosexual community…some of which has lots of money and power..”
She was just being polite and wishing you’d leave before her friends saw you.

The laws in regard to marriage are totally bogus. Our country was founded on a fundimental belief that there should be seperation of church and state, your personal religious perception of marriage has no place being controlled by our government. Rick Santorum has no concerns for personal liberty he is a total and utter bigot who would has no ability to see past his religiously based opinions!

Yes, you admire Santorum because you’re a vile bigot just like he is.

“How dare you be so intolerant of my intolerance!”

What’s next, accusing people of being “bigoted” against the Ku Klux Klan?

It’s because this “tiny minority” is the one facing by far the most discrimination.

Because Santorum’s opinion is that gays are inferior people who should be discriminated against by law.

It’s called reality. You should try living in it.

I went to an art college…believe me, I know lots of homosexuals and I have never mistreated any homosexual. in fact, as a school teacher for many years, i “wrote up” students on a discipline ‘referral’ for hurtful remarks to other students they considered or thought were homosexuals…I just simply think it is perversion and not morally right. It is one thing to discuss a subject in light of what you believe…it is another to mistreat others because they do not agree with you….I am not ’hateful’.(.I’m a christian and you are definitely not a true christian if you hate anyone)  and…in fact I have several homosexual friends I truly love (I just don’t agree with their live-style and practices) and I am definitely not ignorant!  I’m also not a ’bigot’…check the definition of that word.

I can see from you crude language that you do not have much tolerance for others of a different opinion…

Why does being a strong believer in one’s principles make one, in your opinion, “a vile bigot”  …did my comments, perhaps, “strike home”…do they apply to your past, perhaps? 

My daughter completely agrees with me on the subject, and has quite a few friends who are homosexuals, even one who has been ‘ordained’ in the clergy of a church in Berkeley.  He is going to send me the pamphlet about how the church he belongs to justifies his sexual activity in light of Biblical teachings…this should be an interesting discussion.  He admits to a ‘troubled past’, sexually.

When those principles are bigotry, that’s when. Your principles, like Santorum’s, are based on discrimination against homosexuals simply because they exist.
