OLYMPIA, Wash. — Republican presidential hopeful Rick Santorum, well known for his opposition to same-sex marriage, visited Washington state on Monday within an hour of Gov. Chris Gregoire signing the state’s same-sex marriage bill into law.
Rick Santorum
Before meeting with political leaders in the Legislative building, Santorum held a private meeting with religious leaders at an Olympia church, in which he encouraged opponents of same-sex marriage to “continue the fight.”
Santorum said the marriage equality law “waters down marriage” and that Washington state’s approval of same-sex marriage is “not the final word” on the subject.
“We need to have a national consensus on this, a national debate,” Santorum said. “I believe we should move forward with a constitutional amendment defining marriage as between a man and a woman.”
The former Pennsylvania senator argued that there are societal consequences without strong traditional marriages, including more people going to prison, more dropouts from school, higher poverty rates and higher government spending.

Oh silly santorum. Kiss ass, wake up, and smell the equality<3
Fuck off Republicans!
Would someone shut him the hell up already?! Gawd.
Would somebody please punch this guy…
He is such an ass!! I dont understand why people like him have such a problem with gay marriage. He doesnt have to marry a man so it doesnt affect him one big. What a tool.
Oh, take your frothing somewhere else, Rick.
IDIOT!!!!!! It’s 2012 get off the sexist, bullying BS! YAY Washington but, this guy should be ashamed of himself.
your absolutely correct it is not the final word in our battle for equality. we will continue to fight every bigoted asshole you can throw at us… To quote a famous American, “We have not yet begun to fight.”
Santorum, your word does not count. You should know that by now !
Look up santorum on urbandictionary. Nuff’ said.
Hey santorum, just fucking try!!!
Well said John Mattson… here-here!!!
If a vulture swooped down, picked frothy up by his neck, and took him on a flight with his arms and legs flailing, before dropping his bigot butt into the raging middle of the Pacific Ocean, I would dance a fucking jig.
one more reason to keep this fool out of office, not that we needed another reason
Why do I have a feeling he was looking forward to going AFTER it was signed?
Mr. Sanitarium. There is also another quote that I believe is from Abraham Lincoln. Tis better to let people think you are a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt. Rick removed all doubt a long time ago, so why is he still relevant?
Santorum CONSTANTLY bitches about the courts imposing their will on the people regarding “gay marriage”.
Well … this law came from the people’s elected legislature — not the courts.
WTF is his problem now?!
because he wants to impose his will… much the same way hitler wanted to impose his will on europe
Oh please, he has the IQ of an eggplant!!
Dickbags..give it up teabaggers
he’s so ignorant!
idiots!
we shall overcome!!!
How about he not get involved with state issues and realize it is a state issue right now? If he wants any chance of winning, he better realize he needs to appeal to those who support gay rights…
He can kiss my fat rican ass right after I pants him and show everyone what he doesn’t have
“I think we should have a nation consensus…” “We should propose an amendment declaring marriage is between a man and a woman” Please tell me I’m not the only one who sees that those two sentences contradict each other.
I am sick of the hate he spews out. You expect to represent all of America, while hating some of us? Shame on you.
Someone needs to shove a plug up his santorum…he is more of a whiney bitch than a presidental candidate.
*presidential
Lmfao god i love you baby!!!!! @ Vana…. Ima pay mister sanitation a visit n bedazzle his car n dance on the hood of it to i will survive wrapped in my raynebow flag #how.bout.that
We now know where to throw a the next gay ball
F__k off gay boy
funny that hitler had a “final” something or other, well good luck with that santorum
Uhhhh…it is in that particular state. rme
Dear Rick Santorum, please kneel down and start sucking. You have offically revealed that you’re just too damn obsessed with gay men you might as well start coming out of the closet. Seriously, your hatred is not gong to win you points, it’s just going to make you look like a perverted, homophobic, sexist, obsessive compulsive idiot that is barely pitiful.
Doesn’t he have something better to do? Like falling off the face of the planet?
God he is such a Santorum
@ Joshua Murray. I couldn’t have said it any better myself.
Honestly what the Fuck? I don’t know what to even say, everything he said is just ducked up.
yes sir, it IS the final word, GET OVER IT!
He is still delusional I see, so how long before he can be admitted to the psych ward?
AARRGGHHHH!!!!!
I have to be imature about this…hahah we win you lose loser =P
When the hell is this guy going to realise that if he wants to be president and represent America, that he has to represent everyone which includes the LGBT community? Also, why does what others do and how others live thier lives so important to him? Last time I checked America was to be a free country.
seems funny that the only consequences he sites are what would normally go up with time anyway as a consequence of over population, lower paying jobs, little job opportunities available, more kids having to drop out to work at any number of crap jobs to help their families survive…. way to point to the obvious Ricky – maybe if you got off the gay hate and did something to help ensure that we could have more jobs that pay a good wage without over taxing the poor so our kids can dream of a future outside of working in a fast food restaraunt then you’d see that scapgoating the gays was just yours (and others of your biggoted ilk) a poor attempt to cover up corporations (and republicans who are the corporate puppets) greed and their the ones (the people who own these corporations as well as their bought puppets) who have ruined the american dream. Don’t fall for their BS people – the truth wins out!
He can kiss our gay ass..If only beating the fuck out of that piece of shit was an option.
What I’m afraid of is that he will become the GOPs nomination because all of the people that are threatened by us are coming-out in mass to vote for him.
The people that are sympathetic to our cause aren’t motivated enough to get their butts out there and vote against him.
Shut the fuck up Rick, nobody gives a damn about what your saying! Complete dumb ass
he needs to go a way most of what hes says come out hes as_
OK, what did I miss? I thought these GOP bigoted homophobes wanted less government intrusion on each state. They really will say and do anything to get elected, won’t they?
Shut. The. Fuck. Up.
Nothing worse than a homophobic , self- loathing closeted sad person!
In 2014: BREAKING NEWS! Former GOP candidate Rick Santorum has come out as homosexual in front of his family and peers!
FU Santorum
I’m gonna convert to Buddhism. I can’t stand it.
How the hell does gay marriage have anything to do with more people going to prison, more dropouts from school, higher poverty rates, and higher government spending?! That’s just stupid, ignorant crap.
