Sen. Rick Santorum (R-PA), an innocent victim of a deceitful ambush, finds himself amid a concocted firestorm just for speaking the truth about the ramifications of an upcoming Supreme Court case. Please go to ConservativePetitions.com and read what is at stake. Here's the address:

Homosexual and Democrat Party groups are seeking to use Senate Republican Conference chairman's remarks to force his resignation like with former Senate Majority Leader Trent Lott. And the Democrat- dominated media is fueling what it hopes will be a feeding frenzy.


Sen. Santorum's comments were made during an April 7 interview with Associate Press reporter Lara Jakes Jordan, wife of Jim Jordan, a former Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee official who now manages Sen. John Kerry's presidential campaign. The DSCC, naturally, called for Sen.
Santorum to resign his leadership position after the Human Rights Campaign and the Pennsylvania chapter of the Log Cabin Republicans squealed in alleged outrage.


Fearless on matters of morality, Sen. Santorum said what the Bible teaches is correct to believe, and he did so in the context of discussing the implications of a Supreme Court case. He has done nothing wrong. In fact, he has done something right by inadvertently bringing a crucial issue to light.

Sen. Santorum needs to hear from the American public in impressive numbers. Here's your chance stand up for this courageous leader who has been standing up for the sanctity of marriage and traditional family values. Go to ConservativePetitions.com and sign the petition in support
of him and the truth he speaks. Then email everyone you know to help generate additional support. Here again is where to act:

Rick Santorum should have kept his mouth shut if he truly wanted to increase the Republican Majority. His comments did nothing to move forward the idea that the Republican Party wanted to Represent any other than Religious Zealots and nutcases who wouldn't support a Democrat if Jesus himself told them to.

He needs to step down from his leadership position as of yesterday or he will be the posterchild that will be used to defeat GW and put the Democrats back in control of the House and Senate.

Speaking of which, the polygamists have weighed in:

Polygamists criticize Santorum's comments as defiling their beliefs

April 24, 2003 Salt Lake City-AP -- A Republican senator criticized by gay groups now is also under fire from polygamists.

The criticism comes after Pennsylvania Senator Rick Santorum lumped together polygamy -- or multiple marriages -- with homosexuality and incest. Santorum said they are all in opposition to a healthy, traditional family.

The head of a Utah church says Santorum was wrong to put polygamy on that list. Owen Allred heads one of Utah's largest polygamist sects and says the practice of one man marrying several women is a moral and religious tradition dating back to Abraham.

He tells The Salt Lake Tribune when Santorum compared the practice with homosexuality or incest, he defiled it as "immoral and dirty."
