Rick Santorum is coming for your birth control - Salon.com
Does anyone actually believe this tripe? While Obama is making the biggest power grab ever in American history, liberals are worried about the Republican condom police busting into their bedroom and arresting you for premarital sex? Let me put things in perspective, Obama just signed a bill giving him the authority to detain any American citizen in military confines indefinitely and without due process and ultimately even execute you. All it takes is for his regime to deem you a threat to national security and you can be taken away and thrown in some military prison halfway around the world and liberals are more worried about the Republican boogeyman coming for your birth control pills?

OMG 'Pubs are gonna come for my birth control!

Not to worry, Santorum will NOT be the candidate, so obviously, he won't be President. And he's doesn't currently hold any office anywhere. So keep ur pills and enjoy the side benefits.

Though Obama's current appointment of Cordray to director of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau might worry you. He'll be able to dictate whether or not you will have the privilege to purchase those pills.

Rick Santorum: States Should Have Power To Ban Birth Control, Sodomy

Republican presidential candidate Rick Santorum, whose strong base of evangelical Christian supporters has thrust him into contention in Iowa, said on Monday that he believes states should have the right to outlaw birth control and sodomy without the interference of the Supreme Court.

In an interview with Jake Tapper on ABC News, Santorum reiterated his opposition to the Supreme Court’s 1965 ruling that prevented Connecticut from banning contraception.

“The state has a right to do that, I have never questioned that the state has a right to do that," he said. "It is not a constitutional right. The state has the right to pass whatever statutes they have.
