Rick Santorum’s CPAC speech "It’s about government control of your lives" [View all]

Rick Santorum’s CPAC speech: ‘"It's not about contraception," Santorum said. "It's about economic liberty; it's about freedom of speech; it's about freedom of religion. It's about government control of your lives and it's got to stop.".


That's why because his religion bans it, he wants to deny all women in the United States the basic right to have medical control of their bodies. He want's to not just deny government funding for women but deny your right to pay for one yourself. So much for economic freedom. More than that he wants to deny your freedom to talk to your doctor about all your choices. So much for free speech. Either Rick has suddenly become pro-choice or he's just a rambling hypocritical idiot that should be ignored.
