Patriot Voices PAC Makes Major Endorsements in U.S. Senate Races
Verona, PA – Former Republican Presidential Candidate and Chairman of Patriot Voices Rick Santorum announced today that Patriot Voices PAC has made endorsements in several U.S. Senate races. The endorsements are: George Allen in Virginia, Wendy Long in New York, Josh Mandel in Ohio and Tom Smith in Pennsylvania.
Rick Santorum said, “These individuals are incredibly committed conservatives who will be tremendous assets in the United States Senate. Each of them shares a commitment to lowering taxes, protecting life at every stage, promoting the traditional family and a belief that the individual should have the power — not the government. Patriot Voices PAC is pleased to make these endorsements today and we look forward to helping their candidacies between now and November.”
Rick Santorum, Chairman of Patriot Voices PAC, issued the following statements about each candidate:
George Allen
“I have known George Allen for years and have enormous respect for his committed conservative values. When we served together in the Senate, I watched George fight with great tenacity to stop wasteful spending, protect the sanctity of life, preserve the family, and support tax cuts that spurred job creation in 2001 and 2003.”
So, just to remind everyone who Rick Santorum is and what he’s all about, here are 10 of the crazy things (out of many, many more) Santorum’s said over the years, starting with his comparison of homosexuality to “man on child, man on dog, or whatever the case may be.” Santorum’s also said:
*”I don’t want to make black people’s lives better by giving them somebody else’s money.”
*”Contraception is…a license to do things in a sexual realm that is counter to how things are supposed to be.”
*Gay marriage “is an issue just like 9/11.”
*”Democrats are actually worried he [Obama] may go to Indonesia and bow to more Muslims.”
*And let’s not forget this one: “In far too many families with young children, both parents are working, when, if they really took an honest look at the budget, they might find they don’t both need to. … What happened in America so that mothers and fathers who leave their children in the care of someone else – or worse yet, home alone after school between three and six in the afternoon – find themselves more affirmed by society? Here, we can thank the influence of radical feminism.”
*And this: “All the people who live in the West Bank are Israelis, they’re not Palestinians. There is no ‘Palestinian.’ This is Israeli land.”
*And this anti-Mormon bigotry: “Would the potential attraction to Mormonism by simply having a Mormon in the White House threaten traditional Christianity by leading more Americans to a church that some Christians believe misleadingly calls itself Christian, is an active missionary church, and a dangerous cult?”
Yep, that’s who has strongly endorsed George “Felix Macacawitz” Allen. Anything else you need to know?
