Hypocrisy and the GOP, Part 12,109 02/14/2012
Considering how the GOP thinks the president's decision to cover women's reproductive systems in institutions associated with the Catholic Church is a war on religion, where was its outrage when Pastor John Hagee called Catholicism “the whore of Babylon,” "a cult" and “a godless theology of hate”? Rick Santorum, who is running for president to purify us, the unwashed rudderless masses, from a life unmoored from church teachings that only he, alone, accurately articulates, never accused the pastor of intolerance or leading us all to the guillotine. Why was he silent, anyway--too many non-Catholic votes down South he might need ... couldn't get the words "San Francisco" or "liberals" or "humanists" into a tirade when the bile was coming from a minister in San Antonio, Texas? It's not like Santorum, specifically, and Republicans, generally, couldn't hear Hagee--many were standing right behind that fat pile of intolerance, begging for his endorsement.
