This is a damned lie. Santorum did not talk about banning anything. Ever. Georghe Stephanopolous did and the rest of the media followed like the lap dogs they are.
What Santorum said was that he would enforce existing pornography laws and I don’t believe it ever came up on the campaign trail.
The birth control this was his personal traditional Catholic belief but he said that government had no right or responsibility to force Catholic or any other health institutions to pay for it under Obamacare.
The lying Alinskyites will stop at nothing.
I like Santorum but he stumbled around on lots of issues where he sounded like a prohibitionist....
Just as we’ve seen from a lot of other things that are vices on the Internet, they end to grow exponentially as a result of that. It’s one thing to come to Las Vegas and do gaming and participate in the shows and that kind of thing as entertainment, it’s another thing to sit in your home and have access to that it. I think it would be dangerous to our country to have that type of access to gaming on the Internet.

His statement references going after pornography that is distributed not just on the Internet, but also “on cable/satellite TV, on hotel/motel TV.” Perhaps I am not staying in the most interesting hotels, but my impression is that porn distributed through such channels is almost definitionally not extreme.

And remember this was the election when we had a terrible economy and a President who’s socialist policies were to blame. When our liberties are threatened by the government in so many ways. Santorum was at odds with the people and the times.
That was a lie, the whole “war on women” was a lie propagated by the MSM for the reelection of Bambi. I actually voted for Santorum even though he wasn’t my first choice (I wanted to stop Romney from being the nominee), but I don’t think he was a very good candidate. He would have likely lost far worse than Romney did. This thread printing his new op-ed kind of confirmed that one to me: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2996137/posts
