Santorum: Freaks out about the Scariest Obama Assault On Religion Of ALL Times!



little ricky: What they’ve done here is a direct assault on the First Amendment, not only a direct assault on the freedom of religion, by forcing people specifically to do things that are against their religious teachings. . . . This is a president who, just recently, in this Hosanna-Tabor case was basically making the argument that Catholics had to, you know, maybe even had to go so far as to hire women priests to comply with employment discrimination issues. This is a very hostile president to people of faith. He’s a hostile president, not just to people of faith, but to all freedoms.

There should be a minimum IQ required for candidates.

But I'm torn. It seems Republic men fall into (at least) two camps: Those who hate women, and those who are afraid of women.

I know some might consider men who would subjugate women as a separate group, but I feel they fall into the "hate" group. After all, what is hate, but a total lack of respect?
