Santorum is all over Todd Tiahrt

I expected something a lot dirtier when I saw the name “Santorum” linked to Congressman Todd Tiahrt. Alas, the e-mail was about the man, not the “frothy mix.”

Rick Santorum — the former Republican senator from Pennsylvania who believes there’s no constitutional right to privacy in your bedroom and compared gay sex to incest, polygamy and beastiality — is lending his seal of approval to Tiahrt.

The press release from Tiahrt’s office quotes Santorum saying:

“Courage is in short supply in Washington D.C. Whether it is fighting for the right to life or fighting for the liberty we hold dear, compromise and “going along to get along” cannot be an option for conservatives.”

Tiahrt is running for Sam Brownback‘s U.S. Senate seat and faces Jerry Moran in the Republican primary.
