Santorum wrong on Boy Scouts

Excerpt: In his July 3 column ("Boy Scouts could ease city woes; leave
them alone"), Santorum appears to be so anxious to defend the Boy
Scouts that he has ignored the sole reason they have been asked to
look for a new home here in Philadelphia. They are in violation of the
law by actively discriminating against individuals based upon their
sexual orientation or gender identity. It is that simple.

I must wholeheartedly agree!  Santorum would be awful on Boy Scouts!

QuoteBlaming gay people for violence, murder, rape, illegitimacy, child abuse, suicide, abortion, divorce, illiteracy, and unemployment (did I leave anything out in your laundry list of insinuation, Mr. Santorum?) may play well in right-wing political circles, but in Philadelphia we are smarter than that. We reject attempts to cloak discrimination in the vestments of popular institutions such as the Boy Scouts. For while the scouts do a great deal of laudable good in their community service, they would improve their image and support their oath of character by demanding of themselves what they claim to provide for their members; equality, fairness, and a level playing field for everyone who lives in this country of ideals, hope, and promise.

Indeed.

Santorum needs that therapy where you tie a person down and do their worst fears to them.  His doctor would have to hire some men to hold his hand for days at a time until he is broken of his strange phobia.
