Santorum: I Will Never Accommodate LGBT Equality | Rick Santorum, who has been busy traveling to all of Iowa’s 99 counties, told the Des Moines Register today that he doesn’t see himself ever accommodating or agreeing with “gay-rights issues“:
2. Do you see yourself as ever reaching an understanding with the gay community on gay-rights issues?
A: You know, the gay community and those who support gay rights with respect to marriage in particular — no, I am not going to find an accommodation with that. That is a fundamental issue. People can live the life that they want to live, but now they are talking about changing the laws of the country to reflect a relationship that is not marriage. Calling it marriage does not make it marriage, and it undermines the institution itself. So, no, I can’t find an accommodation where there can be none.
