BIG TENT, NARROW MINDS
This week, we've seen the Republican party trot out its moderate all-stars - Rudy Giuliani, John McCain, Arnold Schwarzenegger - in an effort to paint themselves as a party of inclusive values, open to all ideas and lifestyles. But their party platform is something altogether different.
Rick Santorum, R-Pennsylvania and beastiality enthusiast, tonight:

Rick Santorum, R-Pennsylvania and beastiality enthusiast, tonight:
"The key to a richer culture is strong families, and the key to strong families is strong marriages. That means mothers and fathers doing what they have been doing for centuries - giving love and hope to their children." In July, Santorum pushed the Senate to approve a constitutional ban on gay marriages by calling the defense of heterosexual marriages "the ultimate homeland security."Elizabeth Dole, last night:
"Marriage is important not because it is a convenient invention or the latest reality show. Marriage is important because it is the cornerstone of civilization, and the foundation of the family. Marriage between a man and a woman isn't something Republicans invented, but it is something Republicans will defend."That's it! The gays are out to DESTROY straight marriage!
