    I saw Rep. Walsh’s speech on RMS. I hope it goes viral, her emotions were so genuine and from the heart. I will be happy to vote against any initiative by NOM in November.

    But does anyone have a clue what Santorum is talking about here in relation to women on active duty in the military?


    “…I do have concerns about women in front-line combat.”

    “I think that could be a very compromising situation, where people naturally may do things that may not be in the interest of the mission because of other types of emotions that are involved. It already happens, of course, with the camaraderie of men in combat, but I think it would be even more unique if women were in combat,” Santorum added. “And I think that’s not in the best interests of men, women or the mission.”

    Unique?  I’m guessing it’s to do with some prurient, prudish fetish of his.
