Rick Santorum Has Tense Exchange On Gay Rights And Health Care In Iowa

SIOUX CENTER, Iowa – Rick Santorum is usually quite amiable on the trail, but Monday evening at a campaign event at a small Christian college in Sioux Center, he had some tense back-and-forth exchanges with one student and another graduate of the college.
Jason Kornelis, a 23-year-old recent graduate of Dordt College, asked the former Pennsylvania senator about his anti-same sex marriage stance comparing it to when interracial marriage was illegal in this country.
Clearly agitated, Santorum seemed astounded when Kornelis said he couldn’t contemplate how this would “be a hit to faith and family in America.”
“You can’t think of any consequence?” Santorum asked.

So Senator, you are saying that people in America who do not have healthcare die because they do not see the doctor regularly?

Interesting.

Okay pocket constitution thumpers. Is there anything on that sacred document that says same-sex marriage should be outlawed?
