Well so far the link you provided before this post did not say he wanted to ban porn it was the person who wrote the article that made that jump. This clip you have attached I'd like to see the source. Seems like they to took what he said and twisted it around but I could be wrong.

I know part of the quote is in fact accurate, but not sure about the rest of it. I removed the picture until I can find that the quote is accurate. I don't want to attribute quotes that aren't true.

The picture says Americans For A More American America at the bottom right hand corner, which makes me think that's a made up quote, because I don't believe a campaign would be dumb enough to name itself that. I've heard the Santorum Administration part before, and I think that's real, but I think all the stuff about gay pornography was added on there by someone else.

'Americans For A More American America' has 'Onion' all over it, IMO.

Santorum is still a religious lunatic though.

It's satire stuff. Much like The Onion. Use part truth and part made up stuff.

The funny thing about it, it sounds like something he would say.

You know The Onion does the same thing right? It's satire.

I think the "Americans for a more American America" thing should give it away. I also thought in regards to the Santorum quote that if it was real he probably would've referred to it as "homosexual pornography" just to be more PC. It also sounded odd that he singled out that specific type, because I've seen a couple of his actual quotes regarding the subject and he just kinda admonishes the entire brand instead of singling out one sub-brand. The Taliban thing should've gave it away though, but I can definitely see how people might've thought it was real, considering I did for a brief minute. You can tell that Newt Gingrich quote is fake too, although I do think it's hilarious lol.

Only because it was something that Santorum probably would have said or believed. Also, I started to look the quote up as soon as I posted it because it did sound so "out there".

Gingrich Begins Charging $50 for Photos at Events - Yahoo! News

Desperate for cash eh? Guess he ran out of that "consultant" money he got while being a lobbyist.

To be sure he wasn't going to call Obama the "N" word?...lol
