Before you get unhinged with responses, watch this C-Span video where the Santorum’s talk to Cafemom's "Moms Matter 2012".
http://www.c-span.org/Events/Rick-Santorum-and-Wife-Meet-with-SC-Moms/10737427150-1/
At approximately 39 minutes in Rick Santorum makes note of “X-rated commercials” that come up while him and his wife watch TV and instead of using their "freedom of choice" to watch another station, program or movie he goes on to suggests that the station should be forced to comply with certain programming which would essentially be violating the constriction. He also makes reference to Hollywood movies.
Earlier in the interview he suggests public healthcare should be provided to children with disabilities rather than parents taking responsibility for it. In many cases this would involve taking money in the form of taxes from those that choose to live a healthy life style by eating organic healthy foods, have a household without harsh chemicals and cleaners, don't drink or smoke. The rationality used here can only lead to a community that cares less about them because they will come to rely on a communist like government to care for them. That is not American and it is not our future.
And prior to that he goes on to claim that he is the only candidate to advocate for "improved national defense" when in fact he is the only one to advocate for increasing overseas military spends only.
*these statements are based on my interpretation of the interview linked above and in no way are meant to state Santorums opinions. Please watch the interview and feel free to comment and express your own conclusions.
Make a difference, do your research and go vote.
