Rick Santorum's Delusions and Hate Speech Intensify

Self-loathing closet case - that's what my gaydar tells me, especially having been raised Catholic - Rick Santorum continues to ratchet up the insanity and venom towards gay Americans as he (i) desperately tries to get any kind of media coverage that he can and (ii) becomes more and more of a sick caricature.  Santorum is full on board with the Christian persecution myth and seemingly will say and do anything to keep cretins among the GOP base sending him money.  The nastiest of whores has more integrity than Santorum who is claiming that Christians are being sent to re-education camps (Santorum needs to go to a sanitarium for mental health care services).  A piece in The New Civil Rights Movement looks at Santorums extreme, spittle flecked invectives against gays and shameless pandering to the "godly Christian" crowd.  Here are excerpts:

Rick Santorum's full time job no longer is touring the country with his wife and seven children. Santorum, after a failed career as a U.S. Senator and then failed attempt to win the Republican presidential nomination, is now the CEO of a Christian movie production company. EchoLight Studios produces "family values" films like last Christmas' "The Christmas Candle," which grossed $68,655 its opening weekend and a reported $2.2 million overall.

Santorum's studio, according to Right Wing Watch, has a business partnership with the anti-gay hate group American Family Association. He sat down with AFA's Bryan Fischer today to talk about his next film, "One Generation Away: The Erosion of Religious Liberty." It's name, of course, comes from a quote by Ronald Reagan.

The film "draws heavily from the right-wing narrative about supposed anti-Christian persecution in America," Right Wing Watch reports, adding, "Santorum told Fischer that business owners who refuse service to gay customers have been sent to “reeducation camps” and that pastors in the U.S. may soon be thrown into jail or martyred."

“The fight to protect our religious freedom is paramount to our country’s future prosperity,” Santorum says in a Time magazine article titled, "Santorum Film: American Believers Could Face Nazi Fate."

The comparison to Nazi Germany is bound to raise eyebrows, if not criticism. It is not an uncommon analogy for Santorum—as Dana Milbank wrote in 2012, “Santorum sees Nazis everywhere: in the Middle East, in doctor’s offices and medical labs, in the Democratic Party, and now in the White House.” Sheets explains the inclusion of the Nazi comparison this way: “This example was used to illustrate the extreme consequences that can occur when freedoms begin to erode unchecked. The ‘Church’ in Germany sat by as their freedoms and the freedoms of the Jews were restricted. By the time they woke up, it was too late. America is NOT Nazi Germany nor is there an inference in the movie that our government is taking that extremist position.”

Santorum's film is filled with cameo appearances by leaders of the anti-gay religious right.

Santorum needs to do himself, his family and the rest of us a favor and admit that he desperately wants to suck cock and admit that the thought that many gays are leading happy, fulfilled lives in same sex relationships absolutely makes him crazy.
