NPR, NY Times Contributor Compares Santorum to Harvey Milk's Assassin

The attacks on former U.S. Senator Rick Santorum (R-Pa.) were bound to increase following his strong second place showing in last night's Iowa caucuses.

"Rick Santorum has Dan White-eyes," noted NPR and New York Times contributor Mark Allen this afternoon in a tweet. Dan White, you may recall, was the San Francisco Supervisor who assassinated openly gay San Francisco Supervisor Harvey Milk in November of 1978. [h/t Twitter user @ExJon]


Later, responding to a fellow Twitter user who said that "If @AnnCoulter said Obama has John Hinkley Jr. [sic] eyes, you'd be ROFLing," Allen tweeted back cheekily, "Thanks, but Obama has Diana Ross eyes."

A review of the openly gay writer/standup comedian's eponymous blog reveals such gems as, "I always though a really good name for a gay dive bar would be 'The Bottomless Pit.' Just thinking about it makes my head spin."

Hire a body guard! I hear Hugo may not be needing his any time soon.

BTW, Obama has Diana Ross eyes? WTF?

Yeah . . . weird

I guess that in the homosexual community, Diana Ross is the similar to Bette Middler and Judy Garland, but darker.

How does that degenerate know?

His eyes are glazed over most of the time due to acute substance intoxication.

I have to ask, is there some kind of liberal rule that forbids shampoo, soap and toothpaste? The guy looks like some homeless psychotic who signed out AMA from the psych ward.

Rick campaigned for pro abortion Senator Spector

Submitted by lrgon on Wed, 01/04/2012 - 8:30pm.

He is correct in condemning PP as the heir of the eugenics movement and that PP is basically a racist outfit. Well, they are and thanks for bringing that fact out into the open.

Liberals and pro-abortion Repubicans need to be reminded that the Nazis in Germany were admirers of American eugenics promoters like Margaret Sanger. Rockefeller money funded the population control eugenicists.

Like so many of these soft on the Constitution "conservatives" Santorum falls short of honoring his pledge to the Bible and to the Constitution when he votes for a way around his conscience to hand Planned Parenthood the moolah to vegimatic millions of babies.

Rick's votes for Title X family Planning was how the "rickster got around the Catholic Church's condemnation of murdering children in the womb.

Have you gone into the confessional for that one Rick?

Who else campaigned for Spector?

Submitted by Boudin on Wed, 01/04/2012 - 8:44pm.

How about every sitting Senator at one time or another, he swapped parties.

How much do you get for trashing other candidates for Paul? You Paul folks suck, seriously annoying. And you aint doing Jack for your candidate.

Stand by the country first; the party later, if they obey

the Constitution.

Teddy Roosevelt said that patritotism means to support the Constitution not some politician.

Santorumm violated it by voting to increase funding to the Department of MisEducation. That is an easy call. Remember seek truth and defend liberty?

Get a principle straight and stand up for the country. When a factual statement is made of a politician posing as a cultural crusader and then votes for Planned Parenthood something is wrong.

More santorums:
Rick is a Big foreign aid supporter.

Republicans and Democrats alike vote to appropriate millions and billions to send this country and that country tons of tax payer dollars no matter how lowdown they are. The National Palestinian Authority is one example of lowdown giving away tax dollars to a lousy "nation." The NPA funds terror organizations so I guess you want voters to ignore that immoral transfer payment to Mamoud Assad arrive at his office courtesy of US politicians? Forget that !

Mamoud Abbas is the heir of Yasser Arafat's PLO. Remember them? Setting off bombs in kids' school buses and targetting civilians in coffee shops?

Santorum and his fellow foreign aiders didn't directly contribute to terrorism but by the same token by their votes they help prop up dictators in the middle east. Santorum and others in the US congress have helped and continue to help via their yea votes the enemies of Israel and the USA. Now let Santorum defend his votes for foreign aid. To paraphrase Willard Romney: "if you can't take it you shouldn't be in politics."

I've got my principles in order and they don't include saying nice things about those big government politicians like saintly Rick.

You call it "trashing," but the truth is the truth. Let Santorum defend his votes for the Prescription Drug Program that added billions to the national debt. Are you saying it's ok to raise the debt just because Santorum doesn't want anyone knowing he did that?

"Seek Truth, Defend Liberty." Think about it and then do it.

It's a forgotten Democrat factoid.  Just like the real party of the Klan.
