Santorum: JFK Was 'Radical' For Believing In Separation Of Church & State

Jillian Rayfield | March 15, 2011, 3:48PM

Rick Santorum told about 50 members of the group Catholic Citizenship that he was "frankly appalled" that America's first Catholic president, John F. Kennedy, once said "I believe in an America where the separation of church and state is absolute."

"That was a radical statement," Santorum said, and did "great damage."

The Boston Globe reports that Santorum, who is Catholic, criticized the increased secularization of politicians, which he related back to a speech Kennedy gave at the Greater Houston Ministerial Association in 1960. Kennedy had made the speech to a group of Protestant clergy as a presidential candidate, in order to allay fears that the Catholic church would influence his decisions if elected.

6. I know! We are actually kind of lucky that they are delaying the start of the campaign. It is going

to get A LOT worse. Eekkkk! I'm so dreading the scummy ads the Citizen United big $$$ corporations are going to carpet bomb us with during the Presidential election. It is going to be horrible.
